First held in Sweden in 1990, \u003cem\u003eEthno\u003c\/em\u003e now hosts gatherings in more than forty countries. The authors examine the complexity of an \u003cem\u003eEthno\u003c\/em\u003e music experience with three focuses: pedagogy and professional development, participant experience, and impact beyond the gathering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing on data from participant observations, interviews, social media analysis, onsite and video observations, surveys, and questionnaires, the authors ask critical questions concerning \u003cem\u003eEthno\u003c\/em\u003e's history, ethos, pedagogy, and philosophical ideals. Considering its history and current practices, the following themes are explored: non-formal music making, personal authenticity, holistic praxis, musical possible selves, intercultural music exchange, sustainability, social media engagement, song sharing, and future practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs a collection of integrated thought, the book's purpose is to illuminate new understandings of what \u003cem\u003eEthno\u003c\/em\u003e does and in so doing present synergies and divergences with the wider field of music education.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47470560346348,"sku":"9781835950357","price":66.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781835950357-ethno-music-gatherings.jpg?v=1775221562","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/ethno-music-gatherings-9781835950357","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
