In the early years of the Cold War, Western nations increasingly adopted strategies of public diplomacy involving popular music. While the diplomatic use of popular music was initially limited to such genres as jazz, the second half of the 20th century saw a growing presence of various popular genres in diplomatic contexts, including rock, punk, reggae, and hip-hop. This volume illuminates the interrelation of popular music and public diplomacy from a transnational and transdisciplinary angle. The contributions argue that, as popular music has been a crucial factor in international relations, its diplomatic use has substantially impacted the global musical landscape of the 20th and 21st centuries.

Ethnomusicologists have journeyed from Bali to Morocco to the depths of Amazonia to chronicle humanity's relationship with music. Margaret Sarkissian and Ted Solâis guide us into the field's last great undiscovered country: ethnomusicology itself. Drawing on fieldwork based on person-to-person interaction, the authors provide a first-ever ethnography of the discipline. The unique collaborations produce an ambitious exploration of ethnomusicology's formation, evolution, practice, and unique identity. In particular, the subjects discuss their early lives and influences and trace their varied career trajectories. They also draw on their own experiences to offer reflections on all aspects of the field. Pursuing practitioners not only from diverse backgrounds and specialties but from different eras. Sarkissian and Solâis illuminate the many trails ethnomusicologists have blazed in the pursuit of knowledge. A bountiful resource on history and practice, Living ethnomusicology is an enlightening intellectual exploration of an exotic academic culture.

Was sichtbare oder tastbare Dinge sind, weiß jede_r. Was aber sind hörbare Dinge? Die Klangquelle, die Luftschwingung oder die Klänge selber? Und welche Eigenschaften haben diese Dinge? In diesem Grundlagenwerk für Sound Studies und Musikwissenschaft, für das Kartographieren von Geräuschen sowie für Klangfetischisten, entwickelt Rainer Bayreuther in einer klaren ontologischen Systematik die Individualität sowie die Eigenschaften von Klängen. Die Arbeit wird anhand zahlreicher Fallbeispiele veranschaulicht. »Es ist schon viel philosophiert worden über Musik und Klänge, Geräusche und auch Lärm. Aber eine Annäherung an diese Begriffe [...] ist in dieser philosophischen Verdichtung indes noch nicht gewagt worden!« Mathias Seifert, Lärmbekämpfung, 15/3 (2020) »Rainer Bayreuther schließt mit seinem Buch [...] eine wichtige Forschungslücke in der Musikwissenschaft bzw. in den Sound Studies.« Marcel Remme, www.lehrerbibliothek.de, 24.12.2019 Besprochen in: Deutschlandfunk - Hörspiel und Feautre, 02.06.2020, Ulrich Bassenge

Connecting migration studies and the theory of valuation, this collection offers an interdisciplinary approach to the study of transnational music practices. Conceiving music as a practice not confined to audibility, the contributions reveal how music emerges in concrete situations through people, objects, techniques, meanings, and emotions in different parts of the world and during different historic periods. Values are thereby created and shared, and creative processes are evaluated in terms of diversity, space and exchange. This book presents cases of contemporary, popular and traditional music, festivals and trade fairs, albums and band projects, shedding light on the tensions between the transfer, reconstruction and creation of music in different contexts.
