Husserl's investigations of internal time-consciousness take sound as the primary temporal object. However, in these investigations,
the structure of the flux of temporal subjectivity is established to the detriment of the rich tonal content of sound. Just
as Husserl has enlarged the significance of the spatial object of mathematical physics to include the historically-sedimented
layers of its appearance, so the temporal object will receive additional intelligibility if the rich texture of musical sound
is taken into consideration. Particularly useful for this task is Bergson's philosophy of the listening experience.
