| Dec 29, 2020 at 9:37 | comment | added | phoog | @cmp the relationship between the words "complete" and "absolute" is not particularly relevant. There is a term "absolute music" which denotes, by definition, music with no programmatic (i.e. narrative) content. This answer simply points out that the question misinterprets the phrase "absolute music" by substituting "complete" for "absolute." If you want to ask why the word "absolute" is was chosen to denote music with no programmatic content, by all means do so, but don't ask why program music is considered incomplete, because it isn't. | |

Even entering '"complete music" -album definition' into Google returned no results displaying the definition of "complete music" on its first page for me. | |
