Synopsis

Celebrating the International Council for Traditional Music: Reflections on the First Seven Decades brings together the reflections of more than one hundred scholars from different parts of the world on the history, current dynamics, and perspectives of the association, known until 1980 as the International Folk Music Council. The essays are based on insights gained through the study of historical sources and archival materials, combined in many cases with the authors' personal experiences and their internalized writing on individual thematic sets.

The book, divided into sections on the origins and operations of the association, its governance, scholarly events, study groups, publications, and accumulated knowledge, as well as the views of individual members, presents in a systematic and comprehensive manner the first seven decades of the existence of this leading international organization of ethnomusicologists and ethnochoreologists. It is by far the most ambitious publication on the history of the association and its place in the academic and sociopolitical context of music and dance studies on a global scale.
