Ethnomusicology

"Usually you think of the research on traditional music as a sort of musical archeology, which would have the objective to establish and / or mummify on staff or on disk 'true', the 'original', the 'genuine' songs of a people, a very common mistake even in the specialist literature ....
ethnomusicological research, however, is not proposed under any circumstances to award certificates of authenticity to the musical events studied, far from it!
Without going further on the issue suffices to say that according to the most recent trends in ethnomusicology can be defined as' the study of man in his make music. " Which means that ethnomusicologists are interested in the sounds made by people, processes and contexts through which the executive and in which music is imagined, discussed and produced, and the study of musical structure itself.
ethnomusicology research covers all the musical cultures of the world - including Western classical music then - and one of its main purposes is to understand the meanings of music for a particular human group.
For an introduction to the aims and methods of ethnomusicology, see: F.
Giannattasio, The concept of music, Bulzoni, Rome, 1999
ethnomusicology (sub voce) in The new Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, London Macmillian, 2001."
