Description

Designed as a tribute to world-renowned ethnomusicologist Bruno Nettl,         this volume explores the ways in which ethnomusicologists are contributing         to the larger task of investigating music history. The fifteen contributors         explore topics ranging from meetings with the Suyá Indians of Brazil         to the German-speaking Jewish community of Israel; from Indian music in         Felicity, Trinidad, to Ravi Shankar's role as cultural show more mediator.       "This book is unique not only for its approach but also for the         scope of its content. . . . It is definitely a must for libraries of research         centers and institutions with ethnomusicology programs."         -- Choice   show less
