** Music In Mainland Southeast Asia Is One Of Several Casestudy Volumes That Can Be Used Along With Thinking Musically, The Core Book In The Global Music Series. Thinking Musically Incorporates Music From Many Diverse Cultures And Establishes The Framework For Exploring The Practice Of Music Around The World. It Sets The Stage For An Array Of Casestudy Volumes, Each Of Which Focuses On A Single Area Of The World. Each Case Study Uses The Contemporary Musical Situation As A Point Of Departure, Covering Historical Information And Traditions As They Relate To The Present. **Mainland Southeast Asia Is A Culturally Diverse And Musically Intriguing Area, Yet The Ethnomusicological Record Lacks Coverage Of Many Of Its Musical And Cultural Traditions. Placing The Music Of This Region Within A Social, Cultural, And Historical Context, Music In Mainland Southeast Asia Is The First Brief, Standalone Volume To Profile The Underrepresented Musical Traditions Of Burma, Cambodia, Thailand, And Vietnam. It Also Contains The First Introduction To Burmese Music Ever Presented In A Music Textbook.Drawing On His Extensive Fieldwork, Author Gavin Douglas Frames This Survey Of Southeast Asian Music Within Three Key Themes: Music And Diversity, Music And Political Turmoil, And Music And Globalization. Each Theme Lends Itself To A Discussion Of The Region'S Classical Musical Traditions, Folk Traditions, And Contemporary Developments. Uniquely Focusing On The People Who Practice These Musical Traditionsrather Than The Locales From Which The Traditions Originatethe Text Also Follows Individuals Out Of Their Native Lands And Into Diasporic Communities Throughout The World.A Vibrant, Thorough Introduction, Music In Mainland Southeast Asia Is Ideal For Introductory Undergraduate Courses In World Music Or Ethnomusicology And For Upperlevel Courses In Southeast Asian Music Or Southeast Asian Culture. Packaged With A 70Minute Cd Containing Musical Examples, The Text Features Numerous Listening Activities That Actively Engage Students With The Music And The Themes.
