Coimbra (Sé Nova), Portugal
Is it possible for a philosophy of music to offer a point of departure to pure philosophy? Defending the exclusively human character of the music, the paper aims at giving a positive answer to this question. Since it is not the same to propose a philosophy (of music) taking the “evidence” or the “audience” (being this neologism a correlate for “evidence”) as its basis, it is claimed that one must equate listening, interpretation, uniqueness and creation. Mostly in a critical dialogue with recent practitioners of a secondary philosophy of music (R. Scruton, G. Graham, A. Hamilton), the paper puts forward a new key to the equation proposed.
