The music and dance of the Tokelau Islands was affected by the wave of modernization which swept the Pacific following the establishment of the Western powers in the 19th Century. Although remote and isolated these tiny islands were fully involved in the recreation of their traditional music and dance style to reflect the new ideologies and technology. Yet the new form also maintains a strong sense of local identity and the ebullience and vigor of Polynesian dance, music, drumming, singing and text composition. In this study the work of local composers and the social context of performance are acknowledged, the separate elements of music, dance and poetic text are considered as they are interrelated within this form, and the history and geographical spread of the fatele to other islands. Working in the islands and in New Zealand (where the majority of Tokelauans now live) Allan Thomas also charts his growing understanding of the dance and music through more than ten years of fieldwork showing the special features that this modern form presents within studies of traditional musics.

Increasingly popular in the United States and Europe, Andean panpipe and flute music draws its vitality from the traditions of rural highland villages and of rural migrants who have settled in Andean cities. In Moving Away from Silence, Thomas Turino describes panpipe and flute traditions in the context of this rural-urban migration and the turbulent politics that have influenced Peruvian society and local identities throughout this century. Turino's ethnography is the first large-scale study to concentrate on the pervasive effects of migration on Andean people and their music. Turino uses the musical traditions of Conima, Peru as a unifying thread, tracing them through the varying lives of Conimeos in different locales. He reveals how music both sustains and creates meaning for a people struggling amid the dramatic social upheavals of contemporary Peru. Moving Away from Silence contains detailed interpretations based on comparative field research of Conimeo musical performance, rehearsals, composition, and festivals in the highlands and Lima. The volume will be of great importance to students of Latin American music and culture as well as ethnomusicological and ethnographic theory and method.
