The article stresses an importance of a comprehension of different ways of perception in connection with several grades of listening. The music event is created by a set of structures inserted by a composer and by a performer; relations between them are explained by a recipient. We hear different relations by a perfunctory (e. g. influenced by a convention) listening than by an attentive and relaxed listening. There is a difference between a concentrated and an attentive listening. The concentrated listening is a selective one. Concentrated we cannot perceive abundance of simultaneously proceeding processes. We lift the piece (or its particular processes) out of the context of reality, on which we participate. By an attentive listening we enter the unknown, we cross our horizon. It is important to listen to the processes of the music events like for the first time, with an astonishment, curiousness and in a relaxed expectation. It is a new comprehension of a reality surrounding us. This reality is intensified by a creativity of all participating processes, whether compositional, performing or recipient ones. The writer of the contribution perceives the musical reality as vividly pervaded by extramusical reality. His endeavour is to accomplish such a pervasion both in his own compositional practice and by performing participation in ensembles Požoň sentimentál, Vapori del Cuore and others.
