Workshop: What Does Music Mean?

on BBC Two England

Whether it's by the Beatles or by Beethoven, is music capable of expressing anything beyond itself; or is it an abstract construction in sound?
In Workshop tonight Deryck Cooke gives his answer to the question, based on his book The Language of Music with a wealth of examples.
The argument continues with Bernard Keeffe, Alexander Goehr and Hans Keller.
