Abstrakt

This article deals with theoretical concepts, music of the 18th century and the current musical life presented as crucial elements for creating musical meanings at various levels of a musical work and its interpretation. The article starts with comments on the presence of metaphors in music and its role in the expression of meanings. The second part of the article deals with the area of epistemes and shows the importance of this concept for the understanding of music. This central theoretical part also leads to musical semiotics and existential semiotics enriched by the new definitions about Sig-zemic (composition) and Sig-epi-zemic (the musical styles). At last, there are details about a musical form and references to Charles Rosen’s works on the classical style, an issue of a unity of a musical work with references to the role of keys and a statement that the most essential dimension of a musical work is the creation of a dramatic expression.

Słowa kluczowe:
