This book offers a detailed description of new developments in global music historiography, including techniques applicable to historical research across an array of music specializations: ethnomusicology, historical musicology, jazz studies, popular music studies, early music performance practice, and music education history. It presents a unique perspective, informed by recent technological developments as well as interdisciplinary application of new theories from such fields as philosophy of history and historical sociology.

77,000 Page Views
For seven years I have posted a few statements per month onto
this blog, typically just some recent observations or an update of my
activities as a music professor. It is hard to believe that as of this week
there have been a total of over 77,000 page views. Below are images that describe the audience,
which turns out to be quite international, and it is also interesting to compare
the charts for “all time” vs. “this month”. There are many visitors from
Eastern Europe this month, probably related to my recent keynote speech in
Poland and visit to Latvia, but recently there are fewer visitors from Oceania,
perhaps because it has been such a long time since I was living in New Zealand.
