The book covers eight different world-music styles, from calypso
and samba to Javanese gamelan and west African music. Each chapter
presents succinct background and contextual information; a
breakdown of the characteristic features of the style; an analysis
of a typical piece; suggestions for composing and performing
projects; and advice on where to find further supporting resources.
Each of these chapters is accompanied by a YouTube playlist that
pulls together musicians and pieces which exemplify the style.
There is also a brief discussion of some of the most important
issues in world music, which will enable you to teach it with
confidence.
