Filling a significant gap in current scholarship, the fourteen original essays that make up this volume individually and collectively reflect on the relationship between music and Orientalism in the British Empire over the course of the long nineteenth century. Four different themes are explored, including: the portrayal of the East, the interpretation of concert music, the relationship between music and different genres of writing, and Oriental representation in music theatre, opera and twentieth-century Hindi cinema.
