Description

Explore the complex boundary between reality and myth in David Malvinni's The Gypsy Caravan. This scholarly work addresses the significant challenge in studying Roma music: the confusion of fact and fiction when defining identity. The book examines how Gypsy music functions as a marketable exotic substance and a space for cultural negotiation between real Roma people and the idealized versions found in Western imagination. Readers will study the musical contributions of specific composers, including Liszt, Brahms, Rachmaninov, Janacek, and Bartok. These figures are analyzed through their varied and contested uses of Gypsy music. The text places these classical works alongside contemporary debates regarding popular music, making it a vital resource for those studying ethnomusicology, cultural appropriation, and the history of Western musical styles. This volume is part of the Current Research in Ethnomusicology series, featuring outstanding dissertation research.
