The study of the role of music within religious congregations has become an increasingly intricate endeavor, necessitating an interdisciplinary approach to accurately analyze and interpret the diverse musical styles and contents found across different congregations. This comprehensive book is the first to provide scholars with a critical examination of the theories and methods employed by leading experts in the field of congregational music-making.
An international and interdisciplinary panel of contributors presents readers with a diverse range of research methodologies within the emerging field of congregational music studies. Drawing upon insights from fields such as communications studies, ethnomusicology, history, liturgical studies, popular music studies, religious studies, and theology, the book explores and models methodologies and theoretical perspectives that are rooted in each of these disciplines. Additionally, it addresses several "key issues" that serve as foundational frameworks for interpreting congregational music within the context of these disciplines. These issues include diaspora, ethics, gender, and migration.
This book represents a significant milestone in the study of music among congregations, showcasing the latest academic practices and providing valuable insights to scholars of religious studies, music, and theology. It is also a valuable resource for ethnomusicologists engaged in broader studies of music and culture.
