Small Musical Worlds in the Mediterranean

This is a pioneering study of the complex topics of identity, ethnicity and global processes in children’s musical lives in the Republic of Cyprus. It is a synthesis of ethnomusicology, musical anthropology, education and folklore in which the author effectively weaves together theories of musical enculturation and identity, sociocultural learning and human agency. The book will be invaluable to scholars interested in musical enculturation, musical identities, children’s contextual musical practices, ethnicity, globalization studies, music education and Mediterranean studies.
