This book provides an interdisciplinary focus on music, memory, and
ageing by examining how they intersect outside of a formal
therapeutic context or framework and by offering a
counter-narrative to age as decline. It contributes to the
development of qualitative research methodologies by utilizing and
reflecting on methods for studying music, memory, and ageing across
diverse and interconnected contexts. Using the notion of
inheritance to trouble its core themes of music, memory, ageing,
and methodology, it examines different ways in which the concept of
inheritance is understood but also how it commonly refers to the
practice of passing on, and the connections this establishes across
time and space. It confronts the ageist discourses that associate
popular music predominantly with youth and that focus narrowly, and
almost exclusively, on music's therapeutic function for older
adults. By presenting research which examines various intersections
of music and ageing outside of a therapeutic context or framework,
the book brings a much-needed intervention.
