Description

Filling a significant gap in British music scholarship, this fourteen-essay volume explores the profound relationship between music and Orientalism throughout the long nineteenth century. Organised into four thematic sections, the collection begins with 'Portrayal of the East', which traces the historical routes from initial encounter to artistic representation, restoring the Orient to its central place in Orientalism histories. 'Interpreting Concert Music' examines how Orientalism reached audiences through one of the period's principal musical forms, engaging with the eager yet sometimes conflicted reception of Eastern-inspired compositions. Published by Routledge as part of the Music in Nineteenth-Century Britain series, this collection of original essays provides scholars, musicians and students with essential insight into how British composers and performers engaged with Oriental themes, aesthetics and cultural representations during the Empire's most expansive period. The volume combines rigorous historical analysis with detailed musical examination to illuminate this overlooked yet influential dimension of British musical culture.
