Reviews

‘This brilliant collection of essays is a matchless gift to anyone who takes a serious interest in the myriad powers of music to embody, inspire, advance, and protect civil responsibility, humane relationality, and an “ethic of care” for people and cultures everywhere. In beautiful, jargon-free prose, the distinguished scholars and practitioners in this volume—from Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Africa—explain, analyze, clarify, deepen, and re-vision the meanings, practices, possibilities, and teaching of musics for Artistic Citizenship(s). Speaking personally, it is a joy to see how Music as Agency: Diversities of Perspectives on Artistic Citizenship goes far beyond the nascent efforts of Marissa Silverman and I to explain Artistic Citizenship more than a decade ago. Moreover, I am in admiration of how the authors in this book conceive and unfold their discussions in exceptionally creative, elegant, and erudite ways. This comprehensive volume will surely advance and shape the field of Artistic Citizenship for decades to come and transport the discipline to every corner of the globe.’ - David J.
