Description
This volume is dedicated to Owen Wright in recognition of his formative contribution to the study of music in the Islamic Middle East. Ranging across the Middle East, Central Asia and North India, it brings together historical, philological and ethnographic approaches. The contributors focus on collections of musical notation and song texts, on commercial and ethnographic recordings, on travellers reports and descriptions of instruments, on musical institutions and other spaces of musical performance. Extending the implications of Wrights own work, it argues for an ethnomusicology of the Islamic Middle East in which past and present, text and performance are systematically in dialogue.
