Musicology, the Arts and the New Normal, Gebunden

Klappentext

Musicology, the Arts and the New Normal is a Festschrift in honour of Professor Solomon Oziakpono Ikibe, distinguished scholar of Ethnomusicology and Theatrical Musicology. Bringing together 26 peer-reviewed contributions from scholars across Africa and beyond, this volume explores the rich intersections of music, culture, and contemporary society. The essays span a wide range of themes - from ecomusicology and ethnomusicology to music and religion, theatrical musicology, digital media, and gender in African musical performance. Rooted in Nigerian and broader African contexts, the collection engages with questions of identity, tradition, and transformation in the arts at a time of global change. Together, these contributions stand as both a scholarly tribute to Professor Ikibe's enduring legacy and a vital reference for researchers and students in African musicology and the performing arts.
