As a sociologist Simon Frith takes the starting point that music is
the result of the play of social forces, whether as an idea, an
experience or an activity. The essays in this important collection
address these forces, recognising that music is an effect of a
continuous process of negotiation, dispute and agreement between
the individual actors who make up a music world. The emphasis is
always on discourse, on the way in which people talk and write
about music, and the part this plays in the social construction of
musical meaning and value. The collection includes nineteen essays,
some of which have had a major impact on the field, along with an
autobiographical introduction.
