Abstract

The purpose of this article is to create a link between ontology and musical forms. To achieve this goal, Heidegger's fundamental ontology is posed against Deleuze's differential ontology so that the possibilities of this contrast can be used. In this article, with a descriptive-analytical method and a comparative approach, we tried to explain the two types of Heidegger's and Deleuze's ontology by applying it to two musical forms: one fugue and the other ritornello. Thus, Heidegger's world is a fugue that presents the same despite all the variations of the performance of a main musical subject (or a singular voice). Being in this attitude is homogenous and unique. The difference in this way of considering the phenomenon is considered secondary to Being. In this ontology and related concepts, experiences of becoming other, subject movement, becoming a subject due to deterritorialization, the possibility of active participation of people in the whole destiny, and the possibility of changing and reforming the way of life of people are limited. Deleuze's world brings the most different people together in his ontology by resorting to the rhythm and musical form of ritornello. So that at the same time they harmonize, their tonal differences are preserved. Being is the differential. In Deleuze's ontology, with the possibility of territorialism, the way to the subject movement and the possibility of becoming is available. A subject movement in society based on rhythm creates changes in the individual and social relations in which one can expect active participation in determining the destiny of all people. Conditionally, a society is created where people can correct their way of life. The results of this reading and connection show the different social functions of the ontology of the two thinkers.
