“…if certain generally specified conditions are met. Mirroring the literature on the ontology of color, One may prefer external dispositionalism to internal dispositionalism because of considerations that mirror the debate in the color literature having to do with changing appearances in normal conditions (Kalderon 2008). An intuitive version of internal dispositionalism would hold that loudness is the disposition to auditorily appear loud to normal observers in normal conditions.…”

Abstract. In the present article, I show that sounds are properties that are not physical in a narrow sense. First, I argue that sounds are properties using Moorean style arguments and defend this property view from various arguments against it that make use of salient disanalogies between sounds and colors. The first disanalogy is that we talk of objects making sounds but not of objects making colors. The second is that we count and quantify over sounds but not colors. The third is that sounds can survive qualitative change in their auditory properties but colors cannot survive change in their chromatic properties. Next, Iprovide a taxonomy of property views of sound. As the property view of sound has been so rarely discussed, many of the views available have never been articulated. My taxonomy will articulate these views and how they are related to one another. I taxonomize sounds according to three characteristics: dispositional/non-dispositional, relational/non-relational, and reductive/non-reductive. Finally, mirroring a popular argument in the color literature, Iargue that physical views in the narrow sense are unable to accommodate the similarity and difference relations in which sounds essentially stand. I end replying to three objections.
