What People are Saying About This

Benjamin Tausig, Stony Brook University - Benjamin Tausig

“Music on the Move covers the mobility-related topics that matter in current music scholarship, and that students will want to learn about. It serves simultaneously as a new kind of ‘music of the world’ primer, and as an introduction to anthropological concepts of medial and cultural mobility.”
—Benjamin Tausig, Stony Brook University
 

Olivia Bloechl, University of Pittsburgh - Olivia Bloechl

“Danielle Fosler-Lussier’s Music on the Move offers a richly informative yet accessible introduction to the topic of music and migration, especially in the modern era. One of the book’s most impressive features is its integration of sophisticated theoretical ideas into a clear and engaging discussion of each particular case. Music on the Move is a very welcome addition to the literature on music, globalization, and global history, and I look forward to using it in my classes.”
—Olivia Bloechl, University of Pittsburgh
