Congregational Music-Making and Community in a Mediated Age (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Nekola, Anna E.; Wagner, Tom

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This multidisciplinary anthology approaches congregational music as media in the widest sense - as a multivalent communication action with technological, commercial, political, ideological and theological implications, where processes of mediated communication produce shared worlds and beliefs. The authors break important new ground in understanding the ways that music, media and religious belief and praxis become 'lived theology' in our media age, revealing the rich and diverse ways that people are living, experiencing, and negotiating faith and community through music.
