Steven Machtinger: Yes, We Kant - Mozart and the Sublime

Yes, We Kant: Mozart and the Sublime

Steven Machtinger; Attorney; Violist, San Joaquin River School of Music

Monday Night Philosophy connects Kant's idea of the sublime (what we feel when we confront a fearsome and overwhelming reality that we know from reasoning but can’t ever directly experience with our senses) with Mozart's musical expression of the sublime, demonstrated with excerpts from the Quintet in g minor, K. 516, performed by members of the San Joaquin River School of Music.
