Antiphonal Histories: Resonant Pasts in the Toba Batak Musical Present
ISBN: 9780819574794 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Positioned on a major trade route, the Toba Batak people of Sumatra have long witnessed the ebb and flow of cultural influence from India, the Middle East, and the West.

This intriguingly constructed ethnography searches the palm liquor stand and the sanctuary to show how...

The Tango Machine: Musical Culture in the Age of Expediency
ISBN: 9780226385549 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Argentina, tango isn't just the national music--it's a national brand. But ask any contemporary Argentine if they ever really listen to it and chances are the answer is no: tango hasn't been popular for more than fifty years. In this book, Morgan James Luker explores that odd paradox by tracing the many ways Argentina draws upon tango as a resource for a wide array of economic, social, and cultural--that is to say, non-musical--projects. In doing so, he illuminates new facets of all musical culture in an age of expediency when the value and meaning of the arts is less about the arts...
