Produktbeschreibung
Scottish traditional music has been through a revival in the mid-twentieth century and has now entered a professionalised public space. Devolution in the UK and a surge of cultural debate surrounding the independence referendum in Scotland led to a greater study of identities in the UK, set within a wider context of cultural globalization. Traditional music has played an increasingly prominent role in the public life of Scotland, mirrored in other Anglo-American traditions. This book explores the movement from historically text-bound musical authenticity towards more transient sonic identities that blur established musical genres and the meaning of what constitutes 'traditional' music today.

Autorenporträt
Simon McKerrell has interdisciplinary research interests focused upon the social impact of music and how this relates to policy. He is the author of Focus: Scottish Traditional Music (2015), and the co-editor of Music as Multimodal Discourse: Media, Power and Protest (2017). He is currently Associate Dean for Research & Innovation in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at Newcastle University. He has previously held positions at the Universities of Sheffield, Glasgow and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, and at the National Piping Centre in Glasgow. Gary West holds a personal chair in Scottish Ethnology at the University of Edinburgh, where he also serves as Director of the European Ethnological Research Centre. His key teaching and research interests examine the ways in which we relate to the past from within the present, and he has published widely in the fields of folklore, tradition, heritage and traditional music. He is chair of Traditional Arts and Culture Scotland, a past board member of Creative Scotland, and he presents Pipeline, a weekly specialist music programme on BBC Radio Scotland. He is also an active musician, having toured widely in the UK, Europe and North America, and has performed on around 30 CDs.
Rezensionen
"[...]the volume is a good start at heightening awareness of Scottish traditional music in all its diversity, and will hopefully inspire performers and scholars alike to continue to explore this vibrant and fascinating area."
