About the journal

About the world of music (new series)
the world of music (new series) is an international peer-reviewed journal seeking a critical understanding of performing arts and cultural practices involving music, dance and theater worldwide, as well as the many contexts in which they come into being.
In this, it provides scholars from a multiplicity of academic backgrounds a forum for the discussion of musics from around the world, their dynamics and their many meanings, manifested in a variety of ever changing forms ranging from highly particular and localized systems of musical thinking in traditional musics to global (musical) cultural flows and consumption.
the world of music (new series)
.:: embraces a wide variety of approaches to the analytical study of the musics of the world, including indigenous methodologies, post-colonial, critical and queer perspectives and different indigenous methodologies.
.:: thinks across disciplinary boundaries; and
.:: strongly encourages theoretical and methodological reflections on the study of the musics of the world.
Each issue focuses on a specific topic. In a firmly established practice of the world of music and the world of music (new series), high-profile guest editors are invited to design issues and see them through the entire preparation process.
History of the Journal - the world of music (new series)
the world of music (new series) is a continuation of the journal the world of music edited from 1988 to 2007 by Max Peter Baumann at the International Institute for Traditional Music (IITM), Berlin, since 1997 as Journal of the Department of Ethnomusicology at Otto-Friedrich University of Bamberg. From 2008 to 2009 the world of music was edited by Jonathan Stock at the University of Sheffield.
The history of the journal began in 1959, when it was founded as the world of music. Bulletin of the International Music Council edited by John Evarts. In 1967, it turned into the world of music. Quarterly Journal of the International Music Council (UNESCO) in Association with the International Institute for Comparative Music Studies and Documentation (Berlin), still edited up to 1974 by John Evarts.
Since the foundation of the International Institute for Comparative Music Studies and Documentation (IICMSD), Berlin, in 1963, the journal had been hosted by this institution, which was later renamed in International Institute for Traditional Music (IITM). From 1975-87 the journal was edited by its director Ivan Vandor (1975-87) and then by his successor Max Peter Baumann beginning with the year 1988.
When the International Institute for Traditional Music was closed in 1997, Max Peter Baumann continued the editorship and brought, until 2007, the journal to the Department of Ethnomusicology at the University of Bamberg. Since 1996 the journal has been published by the VWB-Verlag für Wissenschaft und Bildung, Berlin.
From 2008 to 2009, Jonathan Stock assumed the editorship and the journal moved to the Ethnomusicology Programme at the University of Sheffield.
In 2012, the title of the journal was renamed into the world of music (new series) and Birgit Abels took over the editorship at the Department of Musicology at the Georg August University Göttingen. Barbara Alge is now serving as co-editor, Helena Simonett as book reviews editor, Dan Bendrups as recording reviews editor and Frances Wilkins as editor of the new website reviews section.
With the renaming of the title, the journal received a new ISSN (0043-8774).

People behind the world of music (new series)
Editor: Prof Dr Birgit Abels, Department of Musicology, Georg August University Göttingen, Germany Birgit Abels is full professor of Cultural Musicology at the Musicology Department of the Georg August University Göttingen, Germany. She focusses attention on post-colonial and spatial theory and their usefulness for understanding musical processes, the investigation of musical meaning and the dynamics of cultural identity. The geographic foci of her research are the Pacific Ocean (particularly Micronesia), the Southeast Asian island world and North India.
Co-editor: Dr Barbara Titus, Universiteit van Amsterdam, The Netherlands Dr. Barbara Titus studied musicology at Utrecht University and gained her doctorate from Oxford University in the United Kingdom with a dissertation entitled ‘Conceptualizing music: Friedrich Theodor Vischer and Hegelian currents in German music criticism, 1848-1871.’ (Leuven University Press [forthcoming]).In 2007, she shifted her attention from German metaphysics to South African street music (maskanda), with the explicit aim to question the polarity that these two fields of investigation still seem to represent. Articles about subjects ranging from 19th-century German music criticism to contemporary popular musics in Southern Africa have been published in journals such as Acta Musicologica, Ethnomusicology, SAMUS: South African Music Studies and the Dutch Journal of Music Theory. Her book about maskanda is currently under review with the University of Chicago Press. From 2008 to 2013, Barbara worked as an assistant professor teaching European music history post-1800 at Utrecht University. In 2013, she was appointed associate professor of cultural musicology at the University of Amsterdam. During two extensive field trips for her research into maskanda in 2008 and 2009, she was a visiting professor at the University of KwaZulu-Natal in Durban, South Africa.
Book reviews editor: Eva-Maria van Straaten, M.A. studied Cultural Anthropology (B.A. 2009) and Cultural Analysis (M.A. 2011) at Amsterdam University, both with a focus on music. In her M.A. thesis she did research on goatrance electronic dance music and cosmopolitanism in the greater Amsterdam area. Since 2011 she works as a research assistant at the Cultural Musicology department at the Georg August University Göttingen. She is preparing a PhD on Hindustani classical music as it moves and is moved around the planet, focussing on (the musical heritage of) four musicians belonging to a musically constructed space that has come to be known as the Maihar gharana. In particular, she is interested in exploring dynamics of power and knowledge as negotiated musically in and through this sonorous space.
Recording reviews editor: Robert Fry is Senior Lecturer in Music History and Literature at the Blair School of Music. His research focuses on music festivals, music tourism, and the roles of fan culture in the production, promotion, and performance of musical sounds and spaces. His most recent project explores the importance of music fans and tourists in the production and preservation of the annual King Biscuit Blues Festival in Helena, Arkansas. At Vanderbilt, Professor Fry teaches courses in the Blues, Global Music, Jazz, American Popular Music, Music and Tourism, and Music of the South.
