Creating Global Music in Turkey looks at the rise of "world music"
in Turkey by analyzing this country's various "traditional" or
ethnic music forms. The book focuses on the uniquely Turkish
musical forms exemplified by Gypsy, Sufi, and Folk music, and
explores how these have been incorporated into the global
discourses of world music. In doing so, the book also shows how the
place-making strategies of globalization are embodied through the
construction of an "authentic" Istanbul sound under the label of
world music. The reader is invited to consider each musical
tradition as being a unique realm in its incorporation into world
music. The process of incorporation and appropriation is explained
by examination of the specificities of each realm. This book is
unique within the relevant literature, focusing on the production
of a global cultural form outside of the Western world. It uses the
findings of comprehensive ethnographic research to reveal to the
reader the strategies of actors, the discursive mechanisms in the
field, and how the world music markets operate.
