This edited collection draws its authors from both sides of the island to give a rounded picture of musical culture from the beginning of the British colonial period until today. The authors consider: what is the role of different musics in defining national, regional, social and cultural identities in Cyprus; how do Cypriot alterities illuminate European projects of modernity; what has been the impact of westernization and modernization (and, conversely, of orientalization) on music in Cyprus? The book will be of interest to academics working in historical musicology, ethnomusicology, and the history and anthropology of Cyprus and of the entire Greek-Anatolian region.
