- Directly relevant to the needs of teachers and researchers in
music, musicology, ethnomusicology and social anthropology. This
book examines the significance of music in the construction of
identities and ethnicities, and suggests ways to understand music
as social practice. The authors focus on the role of music in the
construction of national and regional identities; the media and
'postmodern identity'; concepts of authenticity; aesthetics;
meaning; performance; 'world music'; and the use of music as a
focus for discursive evocations of 'place'. The chapters tackle a
wide range of subjects including 16th century etiquette, Celtic
music and Chopin. The volume will be of interest to social
anthropologists, and those working in the fields of cultural
studies, politics, gender studies, musicology and folklore.
