Features: This study takes synesthetic relationships as a breakthrough point, using empirical methods in psychology to prove six types of synesthetic corresponding relationships related to musical auditory perception: synesthesia related to pitch, synesthesia related to loudness, synesthesia related to temporal anticipation, synesthesia related to rate of change in time, synesthesia related to tension, and synesthesia related to novel experiences. Based on the foundation of synesthetic corresponding relationships, this book further examines the process of the emergence of musical expressive objects from both the perspectives of creation and appreciation, addressing the questions of "how do expressive objects enter into music, and how do they exit music to reach the listeners?" It also points out that the "multiplicity" and "uncertainty" of musical understanding are inevitable, while the commonality of understanding is conditional.
