Abstract

I argued in my position paper (my first movement) that music theory is de facto a folk theory of mind and therefore that music is only amenable to study as a psychological or a cognitive entity; therefore, also, music is not modelled directly by mathematical methods, but its cognitive correlate may be. In this movement, I address issues raised by my co-authors, their examples and, importantly, the deep philosophical errors inherent in the notion that one can give a ‘definition of music’, let alone a mathematical one.
