In Empfindsamer Stil, Roberto Barreca offers a bold and deeply original journey into the heart of eighteenth-century musical sensibility, where Baroque unity dissolves into a vibrant dialogue of emotions, and the seeds of Romanticism begin to stir. Drawing on nearly fifty years of listening, performance, and philosophical inquiry, Barreca develops a striking aesthetic vision: music as an experiential geography, a living map of affective regions that transcend time, style, and convention.
Through penetrating analyses of Haydn, J.S. Bach, C.P.E. Bach, Boccherini, and many others, the author reveals a hidden continuity beneath the surface of music history-an atmosphere that connects the Empfindsamer Stil, the galant style, and Sturm und Drang as expressions of a single, evolving spiritual condition. From the intimate family dialogue of chamber music to the nocturnal premonitions of Romanticism, each page invites the reader to listen anew.
Blending musicology, phenomenology, and psychoanalytic insight, Barreca challenges established categories and proposes a radical rethinking of style itself: not as a historical label, but as a mode of being. His concept of a four-dimensional aesthetic space-where distant composers may be neighbors, and eras overlap in unexpected ways-opens a new horizon for understanding music beyond chronology.
At once rigorous and visionary, Empfindsamer Stil is an essential work for musicians, scholars, and readers drawn to the deeper meaning of sound. It is not merely a study of a style, but an exploration of how music thinks, feels, and becomes.
Roberto Barreca is a musician, philosopher, psychologist and psychoanalyst.Also from
