| Research Abstract |
This research explores musical reception in nineteenth-century Europe using the theoretical framework of the concept of the public sphere that was posed by J.Habermas in his Strukturwandel der Oeffentlichkeit published in 1962. In this study, the notion of the bourgeois public sphere is revisited through the analysis of musical concerts. The study explains how the representative public sphere, which was assumed to belong to the pre-modern society, especially the Catholic Church, could relate to the bourgeois musical activities. The pre-modern features of this public sphere may have led to the pseudo-religiosity of classical music in the modern civil society. The study also presents a new interpretation of 'art religion' from a perspective that is different from traditional aesthetics and music historiography.
