Music is a universal language. Musical and cultural sustainability are inseparable from environmental ecosystem sustainability. That's been one of this blog's themes from the outset. Sustainability and innovation are essential elements in the live-music business today. Every culture in the world has its own form of music that is enjoyed by all ages on every continent. Although each culture is different, music unifies all races and has been used throughout history for different occasions and for enjoyment purposes. Ethnomusicology is the study of music from the cultural and social aspects of the people who make it. It encompasses distinct theoretical and methodical approaches that emphasize cultural, social, material, cognitive, biological, and other dimensions or contexts of musical behavior, instead of only its isolated sound component. Folklorists, who began preserving and studying folklore music in Europe and the US in the 19th century, are considered the precursors of the field prior to the Second World War. Choreomusicologists hold that studying the variable relationships between sound and movement in diverse performance arts can provide insight into perceptual sensibilities, cultural processes, and interpersonal dynamics. This informative book will be of interest to students, musicologists and social scientists in general.

The role of music can range from one time structured workshops to ongoing community music making opportunities (choral and instrumental groups, community singing, and related music festivals). Given the right circumstances, music can be very efficient in activating or enhancing the degree of shared content of consciousness.
