Inhaltsangabe

Migrants bring music from the homeland to the metropolis. But music also migrates via the media: 'world' music, hip hop, bossa nova ... . With case studies from across the world this ground-breaking collection shows how migrating music is key to the construction of a still-emerging, global cosmopolitan imagination.
