ABSTRACT

The meaning of ‘space’ in music has been discovered as the performances of religious function in spreading God’s words with the construction of God’s building, the cases of effect in musical composition and form from experiments and environments with the sound condition in building, the works of portraying nonmusical space and phenomenon as the sound, and relationships between space and music within music history about expression of symbolic space in the world of reality and non-reality. There are reasons that idea for previous ‘space’ in Twentieth century could not coexist with the concept of flowing ‘time’ as ‘cause and effect’ in absolute dimension. The main reason is the formation of concept of ‘time-space’. The application of this concept which came from the ‘theory of relativity’ shows in various structure of posthistorical and postmodern dimension with breaking from the concept for modern space and time in the general art and the music as well as the science. This topic theme suggests the concrete examples for that how the meaning of ‘space’ realizes in pieces of music since Twentieth century.
