Music and Tourism is the first book to comprehensively examine the
links between travel and music. It combines contemporary and
historical analysis of the economic and social impact of music
tourism, with discussions of the cultural politics of authenticity
and identity. Music tourism evokes nostalgia and meaning, and
celebrates both heritage and hedonism. It is a product of
commercialisation that can create community, but that also often
demands artistic compromise. Diverse case studies, from the USA and
UK to Australia, Jamaica and Vanuatu, illustrate the global extent
of music tourism, its contradictions and pleasures.
