Musicological Identites: Essays in Honor of Susan Mcclary

No music scholar has made as profound an impact on contemporary thought as Susan McClary, a central figure in what has been termed the ´new musicology´. In this volume seventeen distinguished scholars pay tribute to her work, with essays addressing three approaches to music that have characterized her own writings: reassessing music´s role in identity formation, particularly regarding gender, sexuality, and race; exploring music´s capacity to define and regulate perceptions and experiences of time; and advancing new modes of analysis more appropriate to those aspects and modes of musicking ignored by traditional methods.
