Biography
Erik Wallrup is Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Stockholm University, Sweden. His fields of research are the philosophy of music and artistic research. Previously, he has published a book on Nietzsche’s philosophy of listening and two novels. He is also co-editor of the Swedish Journal of Music Research and editor at the Royal Swedish Academy of Music.
"Wallrup’s analysis of music’s Stimmung is valuable precisely because it provokes such vital questions of meaning, value, and representation so sharply...Erik Wallrup’s sensitive and brilliantly conceived book is a compelling reminder of how and why we continually need to embrace that scholarly responsibility."
- Daniel Grimley, Merton College, Oxford, Music and Letters
