Abstract

In this relevant book, editors Suzel A. Reily and Katherine Brucher present a vast panorama composed of almost forty articles from different parts of the globe. They have in common an effort to discuss the various possibilities of connection between the notions of music and of locality. The book is result of the research projects “Local Musicking in Cross-Cultural Perspective”, carried out in the United Kingdom between 2014 and 2015 and the ongoing FAPESP Framework Project “Local Musicking: New Pathways in Ethnomusicology”, which involves USP and UNICAMP. In 2019, it won the Ellen Koskof Edited Volume Prize, from the Society for Ethnomusicology.
