LA SEMIOTICA DELLA MUSICA TRA NEGAZIONE E AFFERMAZIONE
Musical semiotics between negation and assertion

Summary/Abstract: Musical signs and, respectively, musical semiotics have a controversial existence and act as a borderline for apparently opposed, even incongruous fields: linguistics vs. semiotics on the one hand and music on the other hand. However, they still represent a particular expression that can hardly fit into any pre-existing model or system. This article is part of a research project regarding the symbiosis between text and music in musical theatre and aims at justifying musical semiotics as a proper research topic, along linguistics and general semiotics.
