"The New Series of the ICTM Study Group Journal STUDIA INSTURMENTORUM MUSICAE POPULARIS starts with a broad overview on the topics “Percussion” and “Migration of Musical Instruments”, an outcome of the 17th Meeting of the Study Group on Folk Musical Instruments, held in Erkner near Berlin from April 1-4, 2009. 25 scholars from 15 countries contributed articles to the volume, which appear in their alphabetical order due to the fact that clear borders cannot and should not be delineated. Moreover, the editors leave it to the readers' community to discuss hierarchies regarding their importance or their qualitative refinement for discussion and further improvements are the main aim of the publication. Since 1969, when the Musikhistoriska museet in Stockholm has published its first volume of the journal, edited by Erich Stockmann, many fields of organological research have changed their methodological repertoire, their interdisciplinary tools and especially their non-instrumental focus on complex subjects. Nevertheless, classical working methods are still highly esteemed as a basic precondition for detailed discoveries using modern technology and external expertise. The volume comprises papers of authors, who already contributed to the journal's former series in their youth, as well as those of authors with their first journal publication, who are just starting to explore their scientific scope. Thus this volume brings together generations of scholars with different experiences and their open minded curiosity about each other. Challenging discussions and a wide field of interdisciplinary connections enriched their outcomes and will help to create new scientific spaces beyond the tangibility of musical instruments and the intangibility of musical sound."--Publisher description.
"The second volume in the new series of Studia instrumentorum musicae popularis is dedicated to the themes “Rural” Musical Instruments in the 21st Century and Instrumental Melodies and Voice Construction. Both themes were widely discussed during the 18th Meeting of the ICTM Study Group on Folk Musical Instruments in Stubièke Toplice, Croatia, held in April 2011. One reason to organize meetings of this globally working Study Group at different places is to include local researchers, and to get in close contact to instrument makers and musicians of that region. In this volume, therefore, contributions to the theme "Rural" Musical Instruments in the 21st Century focus regionally on the Balkan and Mediterranean area. The second theme Instrumental Melodies and Voice Construction is discussed in twelve detailed papers embracing four continents. All authors deserve acknowledgement for their contributions to the field of musicology, anthropology and neighboring academic disciplines. Additionally, the new series of Studia instrumentorum musicae popularis comes with an audiovisual supplement on DVD that not only helps to understand the discussed matters. Audiovisual documents become increasingly an inseparable part of knowledge provided in the publication."--Publisher description.
