Abstract
This work investigates Nietzsche's metaphysical, positivistic, and synthetic periods in detail, emphasizing Nietzsche's attention to aesthetics. His work is explicated as a system, a progressive means of aesthetic instruction, where musical knowledge and intellectual power are equivalent. The text seeks to illustrate that Nietzsche was a musical educator committed to raising the consciousness of society so that each human being may become a cultured, communicative, and responsible individual.
