Where is the academic study of music today, and what paths should
it take into the future? Should we be looking at how music relates
to society and constructs meaning through it, rather than how it
transcends the social? Can we 'remix' our discipline and attempt to
address all musics on an equal basis, without splitting ourselves
in advance into subgroups of 'musicologists', 'theorists', and
'ethnomusicologists'? These are some of the crucial issues that
Nicholas Cook has raised since he emerged in the 1990s as one of
the UK's leading and most widely read voices in critical
musicology. In this book, collaborators and former students of Cook
pursue these questions and others raised by his work-from notation,
historiography, and performance to the place of music in multimedia
forms such as virtual reality and video games, analysing both how
it can bring people together and the ways in which it has failed to
do so.
