Know about the book -
Musical Languages is written by Joseph Peter Swain and published by W. W. Norton & Company. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0393040798 (ISBN 10) and 9780393040791 (ISBN 13).
The illustrations used in the book range from the most elemental speech sounds to the poetry of Emerson, from a single saxophone note to the grandest passages of Beethoven; they include discussions of medieval polyphony and the music of Josquin, Palestrina, Monteverdi, Bach, Mozart, Wagner, Debussy, Schoenberg, and American jazz, all within their historical contexts. Such scope shows how deep the analogy between music and language really is.
