"Transported by Song Corsican Voices from Oral Tradition to World Stage represents the first English-language treatise on Corsican-music, chronicling the evolution of Corsican music from the early 20th century to the present and charting its progression from the world of oral tradition to a vibrant new performance culture maintained by an expanding cohort of cosmopolitan players. Drawing on extensile fieldwork, comprehensive interviews, and close observation of Corsican affairs, Caroline Bithell maps out the social, cultural economic and political climate of Corsica in the 20th and early 21st centuries offering insights into the way French cultural policy, decentralization legislation and European Union funding structures have affected musical activity on the island."--BOOK JACKET.
