520 1  "Having fled the Nazis, Theodor W. Adorno lived in New 
       York City as a refugee from 1938 until 1941. During these 
       years, he was intensively involved in a study of how the 
       recently developed techniques for the nation wide 
       transmission of music over radio were transforming the 
       perception of music itself. This broad ranging radio 
       research was conceived as nothing less than an 
       investigation, partly empirical, of Walter Benjamin's 
       speculative claims for the emancipatory potential of art 
       in the age of its mechanical reproduction. The results of 
       Adorno's project set him decisively at odds with 
       Benjamin's theses and at the same time became the body of 
       thinking that formed the basis for Adornos own aesthetics 
       in his Philosophy of New Music." "Current of Music is the 
       title that Adorno himself gave to this research project. 
       For complex reasons, however, Adorno was not able to bring
       the several thousands of pages of this massive study, most
       of it written in English, to a final form prior to leaving
       New York for California, where he would immediately begin 
       work with Max Horkheimer on the Dialectic of 
       Enlightenment. Robert Hullot Kentor, the distinguished 
       Adorno scholar, reconstructed Adorno's project for the 
       Adorno Archive in Germany and provides a lengthy and 
       informative introduction to the fragmentary texts 
       collected in this volume." "Current of Music will be 
       widely discussed for the light it throws on the 
       development of Adorno's thought, on his complex 
       relationship with Walter Benjamin, but most of all for the
       important perspectives it provides on questions of popular
       culture, the music of industrial entertainment, the 
       history of radio and the social dimensions of the 
       reproduction of art."--Jacket.
