Historical Sources of Ethnomusicology in Contemporary Debate

Abstract

At the end of 2017, Cambridge Scholars Publishing published an edited volume titled Historical Sources of Ethnomusicology in Contemporary Debate, which included a series of presentations given at two different international conferences organised by the Study Group on Historical Sources of Traditional Music − in 2012 in Vienna (Austria) and in 2014 in Aveiro (Portugal). Most of the material discussed was audio, which of course cannot be directly reproduced on paper, but the contributions with images offer plenty of useful information on the transcriptions, instruments, iconographic and other handwritten documents.
