Postmodernism is a term that has been used extensively to describe
general trends and specific works in many different cultural
contexts, including literature, cinema, architecture and the visual
arts. This introduction clarifies the term and explores its
relevance for music through discussion of specific musical examples
from the 1950s to the present day, providing an engagement between
theory and practice. Overall, this book equips students with a
thorough understanding of this complex but important topic in music
studies. It: * outlines and addresses the problems of defining what
we mean by postmodernism * explores when postmodernism begins *
engages with a broad range of literature and reference sources,
inviting wider reading and thinking * uses specific musical
examples to present ways of interpreting music that can be defined
as postmodernist
