Music and World-Building in the Colonial City investigates how
nineteenth-century migrants to Australia used music as a resource
for world-building, focusing on coalmining regions of New South
Wales. It explores how music-making helped British migrants to
create communities in unfamiliar country, often with little to no
infrastructure. Its key themes are as follows: people's
relationships to music within specific contexts; how music-making
intersects with class, gender and ethnic background; identity
through music. Situated within a wider discourse on music and
identity, music and well-being and music and emotions, this is an
authoritative study of historical communities and their
relationship with music. It will be of particular interest to
scholars and researchers working in the fields of sociomusicology,
colonial studies and cultural studies.
