<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Baskerville",serif">The series invites all to think through the ephemerality of sound and the mysteries of music with one of the most important medieval philosophers, Abū Naṣr al-Fārābī. How did
al-Fārābī reconcile music-theoretical knowledge with embodied feeling, philosophical principles with sensual phenomena, and eternal knowledge with ever-shifting musical practices?”</span><o:p></o:p></p>
