In this prequel to his 2009 book Musical Exoticism, Ralph P. Locke explores how exotic locales and their inhabitants were characterized in musical genres ranging from instrumental pieces and popular songs to oratorios, ballets, and operas. Locke's study offers new insights into much-loved masterworks by composers such as Cavalli, Lully, Purcell, Rameau, Handel, Vivaldi, Gluck, and Mozart. In these works, evocations of ethnic and cultural Otherness often mingle attraction with envy or fear, and some pieces were understood at the time as commenting on conditions in Europe itself. Locke's accessible study, which includes numerous musical examples and rare illustrations, will be of interest to anyone who is intrigued by the relationship between music and cultural history and by the challenges of cross-cultural (mis)understanding. 517 3 $aMusic & the Exotic from the Renaissance to Mozart 606 $aMusic$y16th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMusic$y17th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMusic$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aExoticism in music 606 $aExoticism in opera 615 0$aMusic$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMusic$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMusic$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aExoticism in music. 615 0$aExoticism in opera. 676 $a780.9/03 700 $aLocke$b Ralph P.$01015466 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248277303316 996 $aMusic and the exotic from the Renaissance to Mozart$92371529 997 $aUNISA
