NOGUEIRA, Monique Andries. Adorno and his classification of musical behavior types: actuality and limits. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2014, vol.39, n.2, pp.297-310. ISSN 0101-7136.  https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v39i2.31709.

This article reflects on the actuality of the classification of types of musical behavior, drawn up by T. W. Adorno, in the 1960s. In his original essay, he presents eight kinds of listener: the expert listener, the good listener, the culture consumer, the emotional listener, the resentful listener, the jazz expert, the entertainment listener and the indifferent. When drawing up these categories, he used elements which are specifically musical, as well as social and psychological elements. Because of the intense transformation in patterns of listening brought about by the expanding technological revolution, it could be assumed that Adorno's classification would no longer be valid. However, the study concludes that a large part of his analysis is still valid and relevant, because there are few anachronisms. What stands out is that the process of regression of listening and reification of music by the cultural industry still remain active and destructive.
