Abstract
Beginning with Edmund Husserl's phenomenology of internal time-consciousness we would like to explore in this paper how musical perception is based on the conscious reduction of acoustic and spatio-temporal diversity into unity. In his lectures Husserl exemplifies his views with an analysis about the perception of a single sound and a sequence of sounds within a melody. They deliver an informative basis for us in order to rethink the perception of musical time and the perception of rhythms in particular. We demonstrate the impact of his phenomenology on music analysis and composition.
