Community Music in Oceania: Many Voices, One Horizon makes a
distinctive contribution to the field of community music through
the experiences of its editors and contributors in music education,
ethnomusicology, music therapy, and music performance. Covering a
wide range of perspectives from Australia, Timor-Leste, New
Zealand, Japan, Fiji, China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, and
Korea, the essays raise common themes in terms of the pedagogies
and practices used, pointing collectively toward one horizon of
approach. Yet, contrasts emerge in the specifics of how community
musicians fit within the musical ecosystems of their cultural
contexts. Book chapters discuss the maintenance and
recontextualization of music traditions, the lingering impact of
colonization, the growing demands for professionalization of
community music, the implications of government policies, tensions
between various ethnic groups within countries, and the role of
institutions such as universities across the region. One of the
aims of this volume is to produce an intricate and illuminating
picture that highlights the diversity of practices, pedagogies, and
research currently shaping community music in the Asia Pacific.
