First published in 2000. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.
1) Adopts a completely new approach, compared to the major
textbooks -- retaining the European tradition and a historically
framed narrative, within a history of all the world's music. 2)
Better reflects the realities of musical life today in the United
States 3) Teaches students the value of examining music from a
perspective that values diversity, equity, and inclusion. 4) Unique
pedagogical structure that offers one guided listening example per
"Gateway," and asks students to ponder the same five questions per
example: what is it, how does it work (musically), what does it
mean (socially, culturally), what is its history, and where can I
go from here (to learn more about this tradition)
Designed as a tribute to Robert Garfias, who has conducted field
work in more cultures than any other living ethnomusicologist, this
volume explores the originating encounter in field work of
ethnomusicologists with the musicians and musical traditions they
study. The nineteen contributors provide case studies from nearly
every corner of the world, including biographies of important
musicians from the Philippines, Turkey, Lapland, and Korea;
interviews with, and reports of learning from, musicians from
Ireland, Bulgaria, Burma, and India; and analyses of how
traditional musicians adapt to the encounter with modernity in
Japan, India, China, Turkey, Afghanistan, Morocco, and the United
States. The book also provides a window into the history of
ethnomusicology since all the contributors have had a relationship
with the University of Washington, home to one of the oldest
programs in ethnomusicology in the United States. Inspired by the
example of Robert Garfias, they are all indefatigable field
researchers and among the leading authorities in the world on their
particular musical cultures. The contributions illustrate the core
similarities in their approach to the discipline of ethnomusicology
and at the same time deal with a remarkably wide range of
perspectives, themes, issues, and theoretical questions. Readers
should find this collection of essays a fascinating, indeed
surprising, glimpse into an important aspect of the history of
ethnomusicology.

Here in one volume is a comprehensive look at the folk and traditional musics of the entire European continent, from Ireland to the new republics of Georgia and Belarus. It explores such topics as musical archaeology and migrations, provides extensive coverage of music instrument classification and includes a survey of museum collections of instruments. Special essays about European music history include an ethnomusicological study of Western classical music. Especially detailed coverage is provided for the Balkan nations and minority groups in the former Soviet Union.
Manual of Regulation-Focused Psychotherapy for Children (RFP-C)
with Externalizing Behaviors: A Psychodynamic Approach offers a
new, short term psychotherapeutic approach to working dynamically
with children who suffer from irritability, oppositional defiance
and disruptiveness. RFP-C enables clinicians to help by addressing
and detailing how the child's externalizing behaviors have meaning
which they can convey to the child. Using clinical examples
throughout, Hoffman, Rice and Prout demonstrate that in many
dysregulated children, RFP-C can: Achieve symptomatic improvement
and developmental maturation as a result of gains in the ability to
tolerate and metabolize painful emotions, by addressing the crucial
underlying emotional component. Diminish the child's use of
aggression as the main coping device by allowing painful emotions
to be mastered more effectively. Help to systematically address
avoidance mechanisms, talking to the child about how their
disruptive behavior helps them avoid painful emotions. Facilitate
development of an awareness that painful emotions do not have to be
so vigorously warded off, allowing the child to reach this implicit
awareness within the relationship with the clinician, which can
then be expanded to life situations at home and at school. This
handbook is the first to provide a manualized, short-term dynamic
approach to the externalizing behaviors of childhood, offering
organizing framework and detailed descriptions of the processes
involved in RFP-C. Supplying clinicians with a systematic
individual psychotherapy as an alternative or complement to PMT,
CBT and psychotropic medication, it also shifts focus away from
simply helping parents manage their children's misbehaviors.
Significantly, the approach shows that clinical work with these
children is compatible with understanding the children's brain
functioning, and posits that contemporary affect-oriented
conceptualizations of defense mechanisms are theoretically similar
to the neuroscience construct of implicit emotion regulation,
promoting an interface between psychodynamics and contemporary
academic psychiatry and psychology. Manual of Regulation-Focused
Psychotherapy for Children (RFP-C) with Externalizing Behaviors: A
Psychodynamic Approach is a comprehensive tool capable of
application at all levels of professional training, offering a new
approach for psychoanalysts, child and adolescent counselors,
psychotherapists and mental health clinicians in fields including
social work, psychology and psychiatry.

Ethnomusicologists believe that all humans, not just those we call
musicians, are musical, and that musicality is one of the essential
touchstones of the human experience. This insight raises big
questions about the nature of music and the nature of humankind,
and ethnomusicologists argue that to properly address these
questions, we must study music in all its geographical and
historical diversity. In this Very Short Introduction, one of the
foremost ethnomusicologists, Timothy Rice, offers a compact and
illuminating account of this growing discipline, showing how modern
researchers go about studying music from around the world, looking
for insights into both music and humanity. The reader discovers
that ethnomusicologists today not only examine traditional forms of
music-such as Japanese gagaku, Bulgarian folk music, Javanese
gamelan, or Native American drumming and singing-but also explore
more contemporary musical forms, from rap and reggae to Tex-Mex,
Serbian turbofolk, and even the piped-in music at the Mall of
America. To investigate these diverse musical forms, Rice shows,
ethnomusicologists typically live in a community, participate in
and observe and record musical events, interview the musicians,
their patrons, and the audience, and learn to sing, play, and
dance. It's important to establish rapport with musicians and
community members, and obtain the permission of those they will
work with closely over the course of many months and years. We see
how the researcher analyzes the data to understand how a particular
musical tradition works, what is distinctive about it, and how it
bears the personal, social, and cultural meanings attributed to it.
Rice also discusses how researchers may apply theories from
anthropology and other social sciences, to shed further light on
the nature of music as a human behavior and cultural practice.
About the Series: Oxford's Very Short Introductions series offers
concise and original introductions to a wide range of subjects-from
Islam to Sociology, Politics to Classics, Literary Theory to
History, and Archaeology to the Bible. Not simply a textbook of
definitions, each volume in this series provides trenchant and
provocative-yet always balanced and complete-discussions of the
central issues in a given discipline or field. Every Very Short
Introduction gives a readable evolution of the subject in question,
demonstrating how the subject has developed and how it has
influenced society. Eventually, the series will encompass every
major academic discipline, offering all students an accessible and
abundant reference library. Whatever the area of study that one
deems important or appealing, whatever the topic that fascinates
the general reader, the Very Short Introductions series has a handy
and affordable guide that will likely prove indispensable.
In this vivid musical ethnography, Timothy Rice documents and
interprets the history of folk music, song, and dance in Bulgaria
over a seventy-year period of dramatic change. From 1920 to 1989,
Bulgaria changed from a nearly medieval village society to a
Stalinist planned industrial economy to a chaotic mix of capitalist
and socialist markets and cultures.
In the context of this history, Rice brings Bulgarian folk music to
life by focusing on the biography of the Varimezov family,
including the musician Kostadin and his wife Todora, a singer.
Combining interviews with his own experiences of learning how to
play, sing and dance Bulgarian folk music, Rice presents one of the
most detailed accounts of traditional, aural learning processes in
the ethnomusicological literature.
Using a combination of traditionally dichotomous musicological and
ethnographic approaches, Rice tells the story of how individual
musicians learned their tradition, how they lived it during the
pre-Communist era of family farming, how the tradition changed with
industrialization brought under Communism, and finally, how it
flourished and evolved in the recent, unstable political climate.
This work--complete with a compact disc and numerous illustrations
and musical examples--contributes not only to ethnomusicological
theory and method, but also to our understanding of Slavic
folklore, Eastern European anthropology, and cultural processes in
Socialist states.
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.
