Music, Communities, Sustainability, edited thoughtfully by Huib Schippers and Anthony Seeger, traces the genesis, implementation, and development of the influential 2003 UNESCO Convention on Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage and its impact on music practices around the world.
With insights from established and emerging scholars who have been there from the early beginnings to those who work with it in communities today, this book tells a riveting story that celebrates the rise in awareness that approaching music as Intangible Cultural Heritage has brought. At the same
time, it critiques the discrepancies between ideologies and realities as they emerged across the globe in its first twenty years, and provides perspectives for sound futures for the planet. Gathering such varied perspectives, this essential volume tells a crucial history and expands our
understanding of the possibilities and limitations of interventions in music sustainability on a global scale.
Recenzijos
This anthology is a 'must read' for those who value local and traditional music cultures in an interconnected world. It presents timely and deeply informed perspectives from scholars in ten countries on the debates and impacts of UNESCO's 2003 Convention. Their work raises crucial questions about who benefits, how traditions are both sustained and changed innovatively (though sometimes controversially), whose traditions thrive and whose are left without support when the interests of communities, nation states, and commercial enterprises vie for control. * Beverley Diamond, Memorial University of Newfoundland * A revealing book about music as Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) in the words of authors from different parts of the world, writing from a variety of professional perspectives and experiences. Firm understandings of the past and the present give these authors the authority to celebrate, critique, and suggest improvements for the future. * Svanibor Pettan, University of Ljubljana, ICTM President *
