New to this edition is a broader selection of musical examples that reflect the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion advocated by North American universities. Eight gateways have been replaced. A timeline of gateways helps students see the book's historical narrative at a glance.
Features
- Values orientation - Diverse, equitable, and inclusive approach to music history.
- All genres of music - Presents all music as worthy of study, including classical, world, popular, and jazz.
- Global scope within a historical narrative - Begins with small-scale forager societies up to the present, with a shifting focus from global to European to American influences.
- Recurring themes - Aesthetics, emotion, social life, links to culture, politics, economics, and technology.
- Modular framework - 60 gateways - each with a listening example - allow flexibility to organize chronologically or by the seven themes.
