After reading Theodor W. Adorno's article on Popular Music I am going to summaries his ideas.
He believe that to make something acceptable, such as a song, it needs to be repeated until it is recognised and become standardised "transformation of repetition into recognition and of recognition in to acceptance" , he believe understanding is recognising.
- recognition- unspecific to explain modern mass listening
- the major-minor tonality- the inter-relationship of keys which determines modulation, the different chords and their relative expressive value, certain melodic formulas, and certain structural patterns
- relationship between the recognised and the new which is destroyed in popular music.
- the link between elements is pre-given in popular music as much as. or even to a greater extent than, the elements are themselves
- vague remembrance-
