At the university level, it has transcended its history as a ‘grand tour’ for the leisure class and the more plebian ‘junior year abroad’. Now university study abroad encompasses massive mobility of students among European Union univer- sities and to and from the US and other countries through a myriad school-based and 25 consortia-based programs. At the secondary (high school) level, the traditional AFS Intercultural Programs year in the US or Europe has been expanded by AFS and other organizations to include shorter programs to and from a broader range of countries. Added to the change in format and destination are educational foci that go well beyond traditional study to include internships, service learning and other learning opportunities. 30 However, a basic tenet of international educational exchange and study abroad has remained unchanged. Every program, no matter at what level, format or focus, continues to claim that educational cross-cultural contact contributes to intercultural competence and thus to global citizenship.

  • Defining Ethnomusicology
    10 1. THE HARMLESS DRUDGE : DEFINING ETHNOMUSICOLOGY DEFINITIONS. For years, people have been asking me the question: "You're an ethnomusicologist?" Shortly after 1950 it was likely to be accompanied by expressions of wonder and of the belief that I was somehow involved with "folk" music, with "primitive music," and particularly with "ancient music," and also that I must have a great deal of companionship with a tape recorder. By 1960 the questioner would likely bring up participation in an Indonesian gamelan, or perhaps an ability to "play" many of the world's odd instruments. In the 1970s, the conversation might well include the term "ethnic" music or even the etymologically outrageous "ethnomusic," and in the eighties and nineties, free association might lead to “diversity” and “world music.” I have always found it difficult to come to a precise, concise, and readily intelligible definition. Dictionaries differ considerably but espouse limited views. In the 120 years in which modern ethnomusicology can be said to have existed, since pioneer works such as those of Ellis (1885), Baker (1882), and Stumpf (1886), attitudes and orientations have changed greatly, and so has the name, from something very briefly called “Musikologie” (in the 1880s), to “comparative musicology” (through about 1950), then to “ethno- musicology” (1950–ca. 1956), quickly to “ethnomusicology” (removing the hyphen actually was an ideological move trying to signal disciplinary independence), with suggestions such as “cultural musicology” (Kerman 1985) and “socio-musicology” (Feld 1984) occasionally thrown in. The changes in name paralleled changes in intellectual orientation and emphasis. It is difficult to find a single, simple definition, to which most people in this field would subscribe, and thus ethnomusicologists have been perhaps excessively concerned with defining themselves.

  • Newcastle University
    Ethnomusicology at the International Centre for Music Studies, Newcastle University Overview The International Centre for Music Studies (ICMuS) is one of the main departments in the UK for ethnomusicological studies. A particular strength of ICMuS is that staff combine hands-on musical experience with academic study, and engage with world music through approaches and methodologies that are pluralist and often boundary-crossing. Broadly speaking, interests include popular, folk and classical repertories. Since the appointment of Goffredo Plastino in 2001, ICMuS has continued to signal its commitment to ethnomusicology through the successive appointments of Nanette de Jong, Desmond Wilkinson and Simon McKerrell. In addition, other staff are also engaged in ethnographic work and/or study world musics of diverse kinds: Ian Biddle, David Clarke and Bennett Hogg. Between them, they cover the Mediterranean, North Africa, Southern Africa, Central Africa, the Caribbean, South America, Eastern and Western Europe, South Asia and Black Americas. Teaching ICMuS welcomes applications for doctoral studies in any of the areas in which its full-time staff specialise. The undergraduate curriculum includes the study of ethnomusicology from the first year: Understanding World Music introduces students to the academic study of world music; Ethnomusicology is an advanced module which focuses on ethnomusicological theories and methodologies as well as on audio-visual works; The Traditions of These Islands and Folk Music Studies provide a historical and critical

  • New Entry of Record Labels in the Music Industry
    Start Me Up: New Entry of Record Labels in the Music Industry Master Thesis MSc Business Administration Management and Entrepreneurship in the Creative Industries Faculty of Economics and Business, Amsterdam Business School Myra Alice Wilhelmina Ruers - 11903929 Supervisor: Dr. M. Piazzai 21st of June 2018 Statement of Originality This document is written by Student Myra Ruers, who declares to take full responsibility for the contents of this document. I declare that the text and the work presented in this document is original and that no sources other than those mentioned in the text and its references have been used in creating it. The Faculty of Economics and Business is responsible solely for the supervision of completion of the work, not for the contents. 2 Abstract The music industry is extremely vibrant, diverse, and inherently uncertain. Record labels are the main intermediaries in this industry, facilitating the connection between the creative input from musicians and the demand from the consumers. Due to many technological advancements, the barriers to entry have decreased significantly, hence making it easier to enter this industry as a new record label. Additionally, strategic integration options allow existing firms to start new ventures by acquiring or initiating subsidiaries. This research focuses on the multiple modes through which new entry can be commenced. These entry modes all have their own characteristics and consequences for the configurations of the industry. The likelihood of entry, the subsequent performance of new record labels, and the effects on the diversity of the output are the main topics that are explored. In this study, databases storing longitudinal information on musical releases are used to compile a dataset with the necessary information on new record labels.

  • Intercultural Learning T-Kit Welcome to the T-Kit Series
    Intercultural LearningIntercultural Learning Intercultural Learning In 1998, The Council of Europe and the European Commission decided to No.4 No.4 take common action in the field of European Youth Worker Training, and therefore initiated a Partnership Agreement. The aim of the Agreement, which is laid down in several covenants, is “to promote active European citizenship and civil society by giving impetus to the training of youth leaders and youth workers working within a European dimension”. The co-operation between the two institutions covers a wide spectrum of activities and publications, as well as developing tools for further networking. Three main components govern the partnership: a training offer (long term training for trainers and training on European Citizenship), publications (both paper and electronic versions of training materials and magazine) and networking tools (trainers pool and exchange possibilities). The ultimate goal is to raise standards in youth worker training at a European level and define quality criteria for such training. Intercultural Learning N o .4 www.training-youth.net www.training-youth.net fhfghjfghj Intercultural Learning T-kit Welcome to the T-Kit series Some of you may have wondered: what does T-kit mean? We can offer at least two answers. The first is as simple as the full version in English: “Training Kit”. The second has more to do with the sound of the word that may easily recall “Ticket”, one of the travelling documents we usually need to go on a journey. So, on the cover, the little figure called “Spiffy” holds a train ticket to go on a journey to discover new ideas.
