Constructing Musicology
| AUTHOR | Williams, Alastair |
| PUBLISHER | Routledge (11/20/2001) |

Description
This title was first published in 2001: Alastair Williams examines and explains the theoretical issues raised by different musics, including the Western canon, popular music, folk music and music by women. A theoretically informed musicology, he argues, can reflect on its own procedures and create strategies for particular problems as they arise. In this sense the book offers a musicology under construction.
