Ingrid Monson, entre outros, defende que falta à música de “arte” ocidental a dimensão interativa e colaborativa do jazz. Esse artigo parte da interação no jazz e de abordagens deste tema por seus teóricos, em direção a um modelo mais geral de música enquanto atividade social. Sugiro uma ampla valorização da música – qualquer música – enquanto instrumento por meio do qual aprendemos a trabalhar com os outros, a negociar caminhos de ação compartilhados dentro de estruturas composicionais que são mais bem compreendidas como pontos de partida, ao invés de especificações de ação. Vislumbrar a música de “arte” ocidental nessa perspectiva e levar a sério a consideração sobre a dimensão social que Alfred Schutz há muito tempo enfatizou - em um artigo cujo título tomei emprestado - ajuda a dar uma nova roupagem à excessiva orientação pelo texto escrito que, questionavelmente, tem provido os musicólogos com uma visão deturpada da música.
