Opis

Diverse musical cultures of migrant communities have existed in Europe for centuries. This volume will focus on different musical traditions and practices, but also raises questions such as: How are musical traditions of migrants integrated into education and public music? Can music facilitate transcultural dialogue? And to what extent does the practice and performance of music reassert cultural traditions in a foreign environment? Answers to those questions as well as a review on what can be observed in twenty-first century Europe are gathered in various thematic sections; model projects will provide a practical insight into the life and work with music of migrant and minority cultures in Europe. This volume results from a project of the European Music Council, a non-governmental network of music organizations.
