Abstract

This book examines folk music and dance revival movements in Russia, exploring why this folk culture has come to represent Russia, how it has been approached and produced, and why memory and tradition, in these particular forms, have taken on particular significance in different periods. Above all it shows how folk ""tradition"" in Russia is an artificial cultural construct, which is periodically reinvented, and it demonstrates in particular how the ""folk revival"" has played a key role in strengthening Russian national consciousness in the post-Soviet period.

Abstract

The BFE's journal Ethnomusicology Forum (formerly known as the British Journal of Ethnomusicology) is a peer-reviewed journal published twice a year (in June and November), that seeks to provide a dynamic forum for the presentation of new thinking in the field of ethnomusicology. Ethnomusicology is defined broadly as the study of "people making music", encompassing the study of all musics, including Western art music and popular musics. The articles published in Ethnomusicology Forum often emphasise first-hand, sustained engagement with people as music makers, taking the form of ethnographic writing following one or more periods of fieldwork. Typically, ethnographies aim for a broad assessment of the processes and contexts through and within which music is imagined, discussed and made. Ethnography may be synthesised with a variety of analytical, historical and other methodologies, often entering into dialogue with other disciplinary areas such as music psychology, music education, historical musicology, performance studies, critical theory, dance, folkore and linguistics. The field is therefore characterised by its breadth in theory and method, its interdisciplinary nature and its global perspective.
