Ethnomusicology is an academic discipline with a very broad
mandate: to understand why and how human beings are musical through
the study of music in all its geographical and historical
diversity. Ethnomusicological scholarship, however, has been remiss
in articulating such goals, methods, and theories. A renowned
figure in the field, Timothy Rice is one of the few scholars to
regularly address this problem. In this volume, he offers a
compilation of essays drawn from across his career that finds
implicit and yet largely unrecognized patterns unifying
ethnomusicology over its recent history. Modeling Ethnomusicology
summarizes thirty years of thinking about the field of
ethnomusicology as Rice frames and reframes the content of eight of
his most important essays from their original context in relation
to the environment of today's ethnomusicology. Rice proposes a
variety of models meant to guide students and researchers in their
study of ethnomusicology. Some of these models pull together
disparate strands of the field, while others propose heuristic
models that generate questions for researchers as they plan and
conduct their research. A new introduction to these essays reviews
the history of his writing about ethnomusicology and proposes an
innovative model for theorizing in ethnomusicology by
ethnomusicologists. This book will be an enduring, essential text
in undergraduate and graduate ethnomusicology classrooms, as well
as a must-buy for established scholars in the field.
