Description
This volume makes available the full range of the American/Canadian musical experience, covering for the first time in print all major regions, ethnic groups and traditional and popular contexts.
From musical comedy to word beat, from the songs of the Arctic to rap and house music, from Hispanic Texas to the Chinese communities of Vancouver, the coverage captures the rich diversity of the vibrant music of America and Canada.
The Garland Encyclopedia of World Music pays special attention to recent immigrant groups, to Native American traditions and to such socio-musical topics as class, race, gender, religion, government policy, media, and technology.
