It is here referred to as \"the Music Road\u0026gt;\", to emphasize the musical traditions in this western half of the \"Silk Road\", and the transitional nature of its cultural migrations and coherences. \n\nMobility in space, transmission in time and \"the East-West imagination\" are demonstrated in the following historical cultures: Ancient Gandhar? (N.W. India, first centuries CE) and the tradition of Alexander's conquest; sections on \"Intercultural Islam\" from medieval Persia to modern Turkey; \"Indian encounters\" with the West - and vice versa - in music and dance (18th-20th centuries); Greek music and theatre as a bridge between East and West; and Gypsy musical styles in European nationalist music.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Theory of music \u0026amp; musicology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Theory of music \u0026amp; musicology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Theory%20of%20music%20\u0026amp;%20musicology%20%5BAVA%5D%22\"\u003eAVA\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"OUP Oxford","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52254667505944,"sku":"9780197266564","price":80.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780197266564.jpg?v=1781273433","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-music-road-coherence-and-diversity-in-music-from-the-mediterranean-to-india-hardback-9780197266564","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
