It crosses boundaries of many kinds, political, cultural, repertorial and disciplinary. Above all, it seeks to elucidate the relationship between politics and musical practice in a region whose art music has been all but written out of the European story and whose traditional music has been subject to appropriation by one ideology after another. South East Europe, with its mix of ethnicities and religions, presents an exceptionally rich field of study in this respect. The book will be of value to anyone interested in intersections between pre-modern and modern cultures, between empires and nations and between culture and politics. 410 0$aBalkan Studies Library$v8. 606 $aMusic$zBalkan Peninsula$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHistory$zBalkan Peninsula 606 $aMUSIC$xGenres & Styles$xInternational$2bisacsh 606 $aMusic$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01030269 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 615 0$aMusic$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aHistory 615 7$aMUSIC$xGenres & Styles$xInternational. 615 7$aMusic 676 $a780.9496 700 $aSamson$b Jim$01185146 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962978203321 996 $aMusic in the Balkans$94403362 997 $aUNINA
