Comparative Musicology and Anthropology of Music cover

Nineteen scholars from five countries explore significant issues in the history of ethnomusicology and its methodological and theoretical foundations, while providing a critique of the discipline. "This is a useful and enriching collection of articles of interest to musicologists and ethnomusicologists...The authors manage to cover much ground, presenting fascinating insights into the history of the discipline while also exploring new directions in both theory and analysis...the most sweeping work of this kind to be published since the 1960s."--L. D. Loeb, University of Utah, for Choice
