Gisele Brelet (1915-73), a French musicologist, is known for her study of time in music, Le Temps musical - essai d'une esthetique nouvelle de la musique (1949). Accordingly, earlier studies of Brelet are mainly focused on her concept of le temps musical, and few evaluate her aesthetics in a historical context. This paper aims at placing Brelet in that context by examining her remarks on Eduard Hanslick (1825-1904), the author of Vom Musikalisch-Schonen (1854), known as the father of modern musical aesthetics. Brelet argues that Hanslick's aesthetics is negatif, and claims her work can renovate it. First, this paper analyzes Brelet's statements to show how she interprets Hanslick's theory as 'temporal.' Second, it analyses her interpretation with reference to Hanslick's text, before pointing out the lack of attention given to 'the temporal', which later led to the negligence of it in musicology, consequently causing many difficulties in this field today. This paper concludes that Brelet's aesthetics, criticizing the weak points in Hanslick's theory, enable us to view the problems in modern and contemporary musical aesthetics in a new perspective.
