Summary/Abstract: Kristina Yapova’s two-volume book “The Knowledge of Music. Historical Reflections, Philosophical Perspectives” is a large-scale analytical and philosophical-musicological study of the phenomenon of European music. The focus is on the history of knowledge of European music from Pythagoras and the Pythagoreans to Schoenberg and Adorno. The history of European knowledge of music reveals the history of music in the epoch-making individuation of European music. This is an internalist reconstruction. The remarkable work of Kristina Yapova emphasizes the growth of key concepts of musical knowledge as well as their interpretation, which is a process of rethinking.
