As percussion music has progressed and become woven into the fabric of Western musical culture, several divergent paths comprised of various traditions and a multiplicity of aesthetic sensibilities have since emerged for the percussionist to pursue. This edited collection highlights the progressive developments that continue to investigate uncharted musical grounds. Using historical studies, philosophical insights, analyses of performance practice, and anecdotal reflections authored by some of today's most engaged performers, composers, and scholars, this book aims to illuminate the unique destinations found in the artistic journey of the modern percussionist.
AWARD WINNER OF THE 2018 SOCIETY OF ETHNOMUSICLOGY ELLEN KOSKOFF PRIZEThis is the first sustained examination of ecomusicology-the study of the intersections of music/sound, culture/society, and nature/environment.
This book explores multicultural representation in western European operatic genres in the modern world. It reveals approaches to reflecting identity, transmitting meaning, and inspiring creation, and the ambiguities of cultural values and practices that occur across the time and place(s) of performance. In theorizing coloniality through intercultural exchange in opera, essays explore topics that involve immigrant, indigenous, exoticist, and other cultural representations. The book offers a more integrated understanding of the interdisciplinary fields inherent in opera, including musicology, sociology, anthropology, and others in Theatre, Gender, and Cultural Studies.
This edited collection seeks to explore the role of DIY or Pro-Am (Professional-Amateur) practitioners of popular music archiving and preservation. It looks critically at ideas around `DIY preservationism¿, `self-authorised¿ and `unauthorised¿ heritage practice and the `DIY institution¿, while also unpacking the potentialities of bottom-up, community-based interventions into the archiving and preservation of popular music¿s material history. With an international scope and an interdisciplinary approach, this is an important reference for scholars of popular music, heritage studies and cultural studies.
