Authors Terry E. Miller and Andrew Shahriari take students
around the world to experience the diversity of musical expression.
World Music: A Global Journey, now in its third edition, is known
for its breadth in surveying the world s major cultures in a
systematic study of world music within a strong pedagogical
framework.
As one prepares for any travel, each chapter starts with
background preparation, reviewing the historical, cultural, and
musical overview of the region. Visits to multiple sites within a
region provide in-depth studies of varied musical traditions. Music
analysis begins with an experimental "first impression" of the
music, followed by an "aural analysis" of the sound and prominent
musical elements. Finally, students are invited to consider the
cultural connections that give the music its meaning and life.
