Musical Revolutions in German Culture Reviews

Hall's book is engaging, stimulating and generative. ... Hall provides readers with enough critical-musicking instruments to equip themselves as destructive musicians-or better, `destructive musickers'-in their own right. ... Musical Revolutions is a compelling and well-crafted provocation for future scholars to `Bring the Noise.' (Martin Law, Marx and Philosophy, marxandphilosophy.org.uk, April, 2016)
