The music of Nonwestern cultures may at first seem strange, exotic, or even incomprehensible if heard through uninitiated Western ears. However, with additional knowledge and increasing familiarity, music that once seemed strange can be understood, appreciated, and enjoyed. This book explores the musical instruments of Nonwestern cultures, with first-hand information on how these instruments are constructed and played, examining their role and function in the context of the culture of their origin. Each instrument is presented with detailed photographs and thorough explanation. Chapter titles include The Classical Music of India, Buddhist Ritual Music in Tibet, The Music of China, Musical Aesthetics in Japan, Vietnam and Southeast Asia, Africa and the Middle East, Australia and South America. The cultural and religious background of each region is carefully examined as the roots of traditional musical practices are uncovered and explored. Each chapter concludes with tips on "how to listen" to the particular music of that region, as well as "suggested reading and listening" for further exploration.
