"What We Hear in Music" is a comprehensive and structured guide designed to enhance the listener's understanding and appreciation of musical art. Written by Anne Shaw Faulkner, this work serves as an essential pedagogical tool, breaking down the complexities of music into accessible themes for students and enthusiasts alike. The book is divided into distinct courses that cover the fundamental principles of music, the historical development of musical styles, the intricacies of the modern orchestra, and the evolution of opera and oratorio.

By exploring the connection between national folk traditions and formal compositions, Faulkner provides a deep dive into how culture shapes sound. The text offers detailed insights into the various families of instruments, explaining their unique timbres and roles within a symphony. From the early origins of melody to the grand structural masterpieces of the classical and romantic eras, "What We Hear in Music" provides a roadmap for active listening. This work remains a significant contribution to musicology, emphasizing the importance of historical context and technical knowledge in achieving a profound emotional and intellectual connection with the world's greatest compositions.
