Mediterranean in Music

Critical Perspectives, Common Concerns, Cultural Differences

Herausgeber: Cooper, David; Dawe, Kevin

Beschreibung

The most recent scholarship available in the field of Ethnomusicolgy is presented in this collection of essays, which seeks to reveal the commonality of traditional music in the Mediterranean region. An interdisciplinary approach to the study embraces not only musicology and ethnology, but also material culture considerations. In spite of the complexity of the topic treated here, care has been taken to use simple, readable language that will be relevant to serious musicologists and general readers alike.
