The late Naomi Cumming . . . based this consideration of the sources of musical expression on her experiences as a performer--with interesting, if rarely surprising, results.\" --Choice\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing classical violin music as her principal laboratory, the author examines how a performance incorporates distinctive features not only of the work, but of the performer as well--and how the listener goes about interpreting not only the composer's work and the performer's rendering of the work, but also of the performer's and listener's identities. A richly interdisciplinary approach to a very common, yet persistently mysterious, part of our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNaomi Cumming was a fine violinist and music theorist.
