Global Perspectives on Orchestras offers innovative approaches to thinking about orchestras. It adopts ethnographic and comparative perspectives on symphony, Caribbean steel, Indian film orchestras and Indonesian gamelan ensembles. By considering the orchestra in diverse historical, intercultural and postcolonial contexts, the volume generates enhanced appreciation of this creative, political and social practice.
