Description

Explore the deep connection between music and community in nineteenth-century Australia with this scholarly work from Routledge. Music and World-Building in the Colonial City investigates how migrants used music as a vital resource to build new lives in the coalmining regions of New South Wales between 1860 and 1880. This study examines how music-making helped British migrants establish social structures and sense of belonging in unfamiliar environments that often lacked basic infrastructure. By looking at specific historical contexts, the book examines how musical practices intersected with class, gender, and ethnic backgrounds to shape local identities. Readers will gain insights into how music functions as a tool for identity formation and social cohesion. This text sits within a broader academic discourse regarding music, identity, and well-being, making it an essential resource for those interested in colonial history, musicology, and the social history of Australia.
