currentmusicology-5236	Swinkin, Jeffrey	An Account of Emotional Specificity in Classic-Romantic Music	2012	30	.pdf	application/pdf	13033	615	52	Some argue this on the basis that musical emotions lack intentional objects: if a piece expresses sadness, for example, this could not consist in the listener feeling sad for the piece gives him nothing to be sad about.2 Others invoke the problematic paradox of negative emotion: if music really made us feel sad, why would we want to listen to it? In the process, I hope to demonstrate that musical emotions need not be of the most general sort, such as joy and sorrow (what Kivy designates “gar- den–variety” emotions) but may at times be subtle, specific, and “cognitively complex.”3	cache/currentmusicology-5236.pdf	txt/currentmusicology-5236.txt
