Summary:
In a recording, what sounds count as music? Sounds made by a musician's body -including inhales, finger taps, and grunts - have for decades been dismissed as extraneous noises. In 'Sounds as They Are', Richard Beaudoin pioneers a field of inquiry into non-notated sounds in recordings of classical music, recognizing often-overlooked sounds made by the bodies of performers and their recording equipment as music.
