Schopenhauer had something to say about music. I'm not sure what that was. All I know is that when I listen to music the only feeling I get is that something is missing. This may be the whole notion of "the soundtrack"... where music is paired with moving image. I've been exposed to this so throughoughly that now if I simply hear music, especially classical music, it just sounds like it is narrating something that I cannot see. This sort of response would not be valuable on a test about Schopenhauer.
