Description

Explore the professional lives of Western art musicians through an innovative ethnographic study. This book, part of the SOAS Studies in Music series, provides a deep look into the work and experiences of musicians in London. Author Stephen Cottrell uses his own professional background to examine how these artists navigate society. This study tests Alan Merriam's theories regarding the status and respect afforded to musicians, specifically looking at how they balance convention with the freedom to deviate from it. By incorporating various scholarly perspectives, including work from ethnomusicologists like Bruno Nettl and Henry Kingsbury, this text offers a multi-layered view of the musical profession. It is a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in the social dynamics and ethnographic realities of music-making in a major urban center.
