ISBN: 9780190274009 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Folk songs are short stories from the souls of common people.

Music and Transcendence
ISBN: 9781472415950 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Music and Transcendence explores the ways in which music relates to transcendence by bringing together the disciplines of musicology, philosophy and theology, thereby uncovering congruencies between them that have often been obscured. Music has the capacity to take one outside of oneself and place one in relation to that which is a other'. This a other' can be conceived in an a absolute' sense, insofar as music can be thought to place the self in relation to a divine a other' beyond the human frame of existence. However, the a other' can equally well be conceived in an a immanent' (or...

Spirit Song: Afro-Brazilian Religious Music and Boundaries
ISBN: 9780199368228 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Spirit Song: Afro-Brazilian Religious Music and Boundaries, Marc Gidal investigates how and why a multi-faith community in southern Brazil utilizes music to combine and segregate three Afro-Brazilian religions: Umbanda, Quimbanda, and Batuque.

Gidal focuses on spirit-mediumship rituals and their musical accompaniment, exploring how the Afro-gaucho religious...

Music in Cyprus

Music in Cyprus draws its authors from both sides of the divided island to give a rounded picture of musical culture from the beginning of the British colonial period (1878-1960) until today.
