Music & Silence

Product Information

Music is the novel’s subject but it also informs its structure, which abandons linear progression in favour of variations on the central theme. In a series of short sections, Tremain tells the stories of, among others, Peter Claire, an English lutenist with the face of an angel, and his love, Emilia Tilsen, daughter of a Jutland fruit-grower and maid of honour to the King’s consort, Kirsten. Away from the court, Francesca, Countess O’Finegal, Peter’s erstwhile mistress, relates her life in Ireland; Charlotte, Peter’s sister, prepares for her marriage in Norfolk; and Emilia’s five brothers adjust to the arrival of Magdalena, their father’s new wife. The present study sought to demonstrate the impact of different genres of music played at different volume levels on cognitive performance. In accordance with the first hypothesis, participants performed better in silence than they did in any music conditions. The findings were also in agreement with the second hypothesis. They demonstrated that the performance was significantly worse in the presence of loud music at high intensity. Contrary to the third hypothesis, however, there was no significant difference between the type of music that was played and performance scores. The scores were not significantly higher in the soft music versus the loud music condition. Interestingly, there was no difference when the scores from the soft music at high intensity were compared to scores from the loud music at high intensity. Demon Hunter. (2004). Not ready to die.

Mohammadi A et al (2014) Effects of music listening on preoperative state anxiety and physiological parameters in patients undergoing general surgery: a randomized quasi-experimental trial. Cent Eur J Nurs Midwifery 5(4):156–160 With brilliant subtlety Mozart has recreated the melodic and rhythmic pattern of bar 3—skewed a beat too early. The previous sobs in the upper line were each followed by a beat-and-a-half rest, but the lower voices covered these gaps. Now, however, since all voices speak together, silence fills the remainder of bar 10. And this silence feels huge, partly because of the hesitancy of the last sound, but also because it is a beat longer than the gap in the top line at the end of bar 3.Peter Claire replies that he is twenty-seven and that his parents live in the town of Harwich on the east coast of England. He adds that the sea in winter can be unforgiving there. Music does not consist, in the first place, of words, language. It consists of pure sounds, and it consists of pure sounds only to those who don’t know anything beyond sound. Those who know silence – for them, the whole gestalt changes.

(The chill seeps in to every corner of the novel, noticed in the subtle accumulation of small particulars.) It is also a place from books, and the novel cunningly stirs literary associations. With King Christian in his court - a renaissance prince grappling with new intellectual freedom, while all the time manipulated by his adulterous wife - we think of Hamlet. Elsinore indeed features, albeit just as the place where Christian's rich, parsimonious mother gets the muddy flounders that are her staple diet.
