How does this affect not only the local music culture but also the development of ethnomusicology? What are the advantages\/disadvantages of an ethnomusicology curriculum giving as much importance to practical training in music as to theory classes? At Kathmandu University\u2019s Department of Music in Bhaktapur, ethnomusicologists and professional -t musicians together support the sustainability of traditional music cin Nepal by developing approaches that explore the space between \u201ckeeping it as it is\u201d (conservation) and \u201cletting it disappear\u201d (non- interference). This book examines these efforts through an analysis of ethnomusicological research and teaching and the work of professional musicians involved in the development of new forms &nbsp;of popular music. It offers unique insights into a decades-spanning project of applied ethnomusicology, while also contributing to the discourse about musical sustainability and the localisation and practical application of ethnomusicology in South Asia and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Applied Ethnomusicology in Nepal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Preserving Traditional Music in South Asia Musikkulturen im Fokus, Bd. 3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabian Bakels<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2023, 222 pages<br>ISBN 978-3-8325-5628-0 Price: 53.00 \u20ac<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To purchase, please contact your local bookseller or order online from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.logos-verlag.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.logos-verlag.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are the implications of establishing a university department for ethnomusicology \u201cin the field\u201d?
