Soundscapes by Kay Kaufman Shelemay

Music doesn t stop at the border, and neither should your textbook. This text gives students a global sense of music and its significance across cultures by introducing them to a diverse repertoire and developing listening skills applicable to all music. An accessible three-part model for listening sound, setting, and significance facilitates comparisons of various musical styles and meanings, and with Total Access, Soundscapes provides the digital resources students need to discover new music in a digitally connected world.
Kay Kaufman Shelemay is the G. Gordon Watts Professor of Music at Harvard University and has taught at Columbia University, NYU, and Wesleyan University. An ethnomusicologist specializing in musics of Africa, the Middle East, and the urban United States, she is the author of numerous articles and books and a former President of the Society for Ethnomusicology.
