| Description | In this paper there are added new arguments for author's musical Platonism conceiving musical compositions as certain abstract objects ('types') distinct from their concrete performances ('tokens'). Compositions are modelled as certain sequences, numerical functions. Combinatory argument says that every sequence is already combinatorically given (only some of them are recorded by composers in notes). Modal argument shows that the linkage between a composer and certain work is contingent. It is also argued that compromise "platonism" is in fact contradictory. Finally it is shown that author's structuralistic conception is suitable ground for the explication of musical works as certain aesthetical objects (what is a conception proposed by musical contextualists). |
