Music is a complex creative process involving many individuals, from
performers to improvisers to composers to listeners and beyond. Yet,
music analysis has often focused on individual composers' processes,
much to the exclusion of a myriad of other activities that occur
during the music making process. Making Music Together offers an
interactive turn for music analysis, one that acknowledges the deeply
collaborative creativity at the center of all music making. This
perspective, fresh and novel in its approach, affords a more inclusive
and expansive view of music analysis. It enables an understanding of
the numerous kinds of interactions that take place in music-making
contexts: interactions between musicians, between performers and their
instruments, between musicians and dancers, between musicians and
machines, and much more. This book engages a diverse breadth of
musical styles, including Western Euroclassical musics, collaborative
improvisations in jazz and free genres, and a range of global music
practices. With an emphasis on the vibrant interactivity at work in
all aspects of music making, Making Music Together demonstrates how
detailed music analysis can attend not only to sounds made, but to the
human lives, experiences, and societies defined by it altogether.
