"Both original and stimulating, this book presents widely known material in a highly theorized and organized manner. Very few authors write about the experiences ethnomusicologists confront while teaching in world music ensembles. The issues this book examines--representation, authenticity, performance practice, to name a few--are of great importance to the fields of ethnomusicology, anthropology, and related disciplines."--Katherine J. Hagedorn, author of "Divine Utterances: The Performance of Afro-Cuban Santeria
"An important book not only within the field of ethnomusicology itself, but for scholars in all disciplines engaged in aspects of performance--historical musicology, anthropology, folklore, and cultural studies. The individual articles offer a provocative and disparate array of threads and themes, which Solis skillfully weaves together in his introductory essay. A book of great importance and long overdue."--R. Anderson Sutton, author of "Calling Back the Spirit: Music, Dance, and Cultural Politics in Lowland South Sulawesi
