This comprehensive collection delves into the multifaceted concept of modernity in music, exploring its diverse interpretations across Europe and East Asia. By drawing upon the expertise of both European and East Asian musicologists, the book discusses how a decentered understanding of musical modernity can be reconciled with multiple historiographical perspectives, while also paying close attention to the unique characteristics of local music and their narratives in these regions.

This volume makes a significant contribution to challenging the Eurocentric dichotomy between Western music and world music within the field of historical musicology, offering a fresh and insightful perspective on the global musical landscape.
