Resumen
Post-modern music is an epistemological category which was created with the aim of drawing together and describing several contemporary tendencies which contradict the aesthetic premises that used to maintain modern art. As other terms that mark out our artistic vocabulary (neoclassicism, etc), this category is creating debates and a spread of different approaches and nuances. Opposite the globalizing definitions which bring up a new post-historical age, this article considers post-modernism as an aesthetic paradigm which is depicted by some specific conceptual and operating coordinates. In this way, what is being studied is the deconstruction that these expressions carry out in both the historical accounts and the concepts of pure music and autonomous art which appear in modern music
