This world music textbook for introductory courses eschews the common geographical approach and division between Western and non-Western musics and focuses on cultural rather than musical processes. The preliminary section covers listening and fundamentals, the concepts of creativity and performance, and musical meaning. This is followed by discussions of musical transmission through migration, memory, and tourism; and music as connected to experience such as dance, ritual, politics, and identity. Each chapter has a case study of a musical tradition that has migrated in the past, in addition to two or more others. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
