Opis

Tracing the dimensions of the new musical encounters, this work considers the impact of world musics on our values, habits and our cultural practices. It includes discussions of key questions about contemporary music culture which widen conventional ethnomusicological perspectives to consider the nature of Western society as a 'global village'.
