The book weaves together the stories of diverse individuals and organizations, examining their music and pedagogical practices while presenting the author's research on how choral cultures around the world interact with societies and transform the lives of their members. Through an engaging series of portraits that pushes beyond the scope of extant texts and studies, the author explores the dynamic realm of world choral activity and repertoire. These personal portraits of musical communities are enriched by sample repertoire lists, performance details, and research findings that reposition a once Western phenomenon as a global concept. Focus: Choral Music in Global Perspective is an accessible, engaging, and provocative study of one of the world's most ubiquitous and socially significant forms of music-making. 410 0$aFocus on world music. 606 $aChoirs (Music) 606 $aChoral music$xPolitical aspects 606 $aChoral music$xSocial aspects 615 0$aChoirs (Music) 615 0$aChoral music$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aChoral music$xSocial aspects. 676 $a782.509 700 $aDe Quadros$b Andre?$01702699 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810703603321 996 $aFocus$94087421 997 $aUNINA
