Die Begrifflichkeiten von Wandel, Transformation (als grundlegendem Wandel) und der des Transfers in ihrer Interaktion mit der Musik geben einen besonderen Aufschluss fur das 19. und 20 Jahrhundert.


Transitions and changes in music and cultural history are linked to causes and triggers that appear to be as diverse as they are modifiable. These include social, individual, cultural and political moments of ignition. They are analysed in terms of form and reverberations. Refering to the 19th and 20th centuries, the focus is on two eras in which change took place with particular acceleration and consistency. The concepts of change, transformation (as fundamental change) and that of transfer in their interaction with music provide a particular insight into the music of that era in particular.
