Musical Spaces
Author: James Williams
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000400999
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
There is growing recognition and understanding of music’s fundamentally spatial natures, with significances of space found both in the immediacy of musical practices and in connection to broader identities and ideas around music. Whereas previous publications have looked at connections between music and space through singular lenses (such as how they are linked to ethnic identities or how musical images of a city are constructed), this book sets out to explore intersections between multiple scales and kinds of musical spaces. It complements the investigation of broader power structures and place-based identities by a detailed focus on the moments of music-making and musical environments, revealing the mutual shaping of these levels. The book overcomes a Eurocentric focus on a typically narrow range of musics (especially European and North American classical and popular forms) with case studies on a diverse set of genres and global contexts, inspiring a range of ethnographic, text-based, historical, and practice-based approaches.

The Emperor of the City
Author: Mark Chin
Publisher: Partridge Publishing Singapore
ISBN: 1543781187
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 441
Book Description
It is the near future. Society as we know it has collapsed, and humanity has been reduced to a near-feral race, forced to eke out its existence in a brutal reality seemingly bereft of hope. Against this apocalyptic backdrop one man struggles fiercely for survival. He has seen it all, lived it all. He just accepts things as they are and does not bother to try and make sense of the stark reality in which he lives, for survival is all that matters. Yet even he will soon find out that everyday life’s terrors pale in comparison to the very real horrors that lie just outside the feeble light cast by what remains of civilization.
