Focus: Music of South Africa provides an in-depth look at the full
spectrum of South African music, a musical culture that epitomizes
the enormous ethnic, religious, linguistic, class, and gender
diversity of the nation itself. Drawing on extensive field and
archival research, as well as her own personal experiences, noted
ethnomusicologist and South African native Carol A. Muller looks at
how South Africans have used music to express a sense of place in
South Africa, on the African continent, and around the world. Part
One, Creating Connections, provides introductory materials for the
study of South African Music. Part Two, Musical Migrations, moves
to a more focused overview of significant musical styles in
twentieth-century South Africa -- particularly those known through
world circuits. Part Three, Focusing In, takes the reader into the
heart of two musical cultures with case studies on South African
jazz and the music of the Zulu-language followers of Isaiah Shembe.
The accompanying downloadable resources offer vivid examples of
traditional, popular, and classical South African musical styles.
