Abstract

One of the ways that the violence reaches every point in our lives and becomes an aesthetic thing is music, and this aestheticization of violence reaches its peak with music. Music, which has been one of the most powerful means of expression, reflection, and healing throughout history for mankind trapped in primitive self, confronts the reality of violence on individuals and society by revealing the factors feeding the violence, creates awareness by determining the direction of violence, is considered as a phenomenon that has positive or negative effects. This study is focused on these features of music and also the relationship between music and violence within the context of aesthetics. It is aimed to examine the reflections of violence on aesthetic creation via violent musical production materials and the musical reflections of violence and related items that have been handled through various examples.
