Harry'ego Lehmanna rewolucja cyfrowa w muzyce Uzupełniające spojrzenie socjologii empirycznej
Harry Lehmann’s digital revolution in music. Additional glance from the side of empirical sociology

Summary/Abstract: According to Harry Lehmann the philosophy of music as an academic field of study appears when musical complexity needs deeper philosophical interpretation and then disappears. Similar opinion has been a part of theoretical work of Aleksander Lipski about the rise of sociology of art in 20th century. Th at is why the digital revolution in the art of sounds can and should be studied in a sociological way. Lehmann sees this need but does not take this opportunity as a philosopher to fulfill it. However, he uses sociological terminology like: democratization or deinstitutionalisation. Th is article gives succor to the problem. It focuses on projecting empirical research which can be used to verify the speculative (or philosophical) character of Lehmann’s work.
