Article Title：Aspects on music, conceptuality, systemicity and education
Abstract：
Two cardinal principles of the nature of music and related musicology have not yet been widely understood: (1) Music and the conceptuality of it is not the same thing, although in practise these two are considered cognitively equal. The ontic essence of music and its ontological definitions, therefore, are mixed up resulting in the common mistake of normative simplification of musicological phenomena. (2) Musicological conceptuality presented in traditional music theory and analysis is systemized but not systemic. These theoretical essays challenge the limits of traditional musicology. At the same time they aim at a presentation of general scientific value, of possibilities of understanding how the ontological reality, or conceptuality, exercizes power on the ontic reality. This interdisciplinary paper focuses on finding surprising conceptual, theoretical and philosophical links between paradigms and research fields that have to do with conceptuality. These essays stress the importance of systems thinking and abductive systemic approach and introduce various possibilities of systemicity and its creative use. They speculate how complex systemicity theoretically appears in cybernetics and systems sciences as projected to fields dealing with concepts, terms, language and communication. These relate to theories, or paradigms of terminology science, feature theories of categorization, and of semiotics. Musicological conceptuality serves as test material of conceptual-systemic research findings.
