This handbook covers the making of African music, its performers and audiences, theories of musical conception, and the exchange of music among peoples on the continent and beyond. It presents a view of the music of Africa from the perspectives of those who have studied it and those who make it.
There are a number of new contributions to this second edition. First, the explosion of new research in East Africa is represented in new contributions by Alex Perullo writing about music in Tanzania and Jeffrey A. Summit who writes of the Abayudaya Jews in Uganda. Second, new topics have emerged as important in the music of Africa in the recent past. Jane E. Goodman presents the case of music and video in North Africa, Gregory Barz and Judah Cohen tackle the topic of music and HIV/AIDS education through music. Clara E. Henderson explores womens dance in the Christian church of Malawi. Daniel B. Reed explores the ever-fascinating way that identity and music intertwine in the contemporary Cte dIvoire of West Africa.
The second edition also provides new features in the questions for critical thinking that enhance the possibilities for using this volume as a textbook. The questions are designed to stimulate thinking and discussion about the articles and the issues they raise.
