Reece explores how these forgeries reveal underlying aesthetic values, power dynamics, and the constructed nature of authenticity in music, highlighting the shifting roles of composers, performers, and audiences in shaping musical canons. The book also discusses how forgeries illuminate historical narratives and listening habits, encouraging readers to critically reflect on their own biases regarding authenticity. This work is positioned as essential reading for musicians, critics, and scholars interested in the intersections of music history, aesthetics, and cultural evaluation. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Notes is the property of Music Library Association Inc. and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
