Finding Democracy in Music (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Adlington, Robert; Buch, Esteban

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book is the first study to offer a wide-ranging investigation of ways in which democracy may thus be found in music. A guiding theme of the volume is that this takes place in a plurality of ways, depending upon the perspective taken to music's manifold relationships, and the idea of democracy being entertained.
