| Summary | Annotation Music scholars primarily from northern and eastern Europe, but also western Europe and the US, draw on case studies that transcend a music-analytical approach in the direction of the hermeneutic perspective, to explore how musical language in itself, independently of the explicitly sacred context, conveys the ineffable. They focus on the musical means and devices employed, and what the presence of religious messages in certain secular music reveals about the spirituality of various eras from the Middles Ages to the present.
