Richard K. Wolf employs a hybrid, novelistic form of presentation in which the fictional protagonist Muharram Ali, a man obsessed with finding music he believes will dissolve religious and political barriers, interacts with Wolf's field consultants, to communicate ethnographic and historical realities that transcend the local details of any one person's life.Islamic musicSouth AsiaHistory and criticismElectronic books.Islamic musicHistory and criticism.780.88/2970954Wolf Richard K.1962-792372MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463383503321The voice in the drum2063220UNINA
