Why do we sing and what first drove early humans to sing? How might
they have sung and how might those styles have survived to the
present day? This history addresses these questions and many more,
examining singing as a historical and cross-cultural phenomenon. It
explores the evolution of singing in a global context - from
Neanderthal Man to Auto-tune via the infinite varieties of world
music from Orient to Occident, classical music from medieval music
to the avant-garde and popular music from vaudeville to rock and
beyond. Considering singing as a universal human activity, the book
provides an in-depth perspective on singing from many cultures and
periods: Western and non-Western, prehistoric to present. Written
in a lively and entertaining style, the history contains a
comprehensive reference section for those who wish to explore the
topic further and will appeal to an international readership of
singers, students and scholars.
