Recenzii

Reviews of first edition:
'... an important addition to the literature on Southeast Asian performing arts. It is indispensable as a reference book for all serious students of Malaysian music and culture, and will provide scholars interested in the performance cultures of other Asian countries with vivid comparators and points of connection and exchange.' Aseasuk News
'... this book will serve as an excellent sourcebook or textbook for courses on the music of Southeast Asia.' Asian Folklore Studies
‘This useful book by two respected specialists is the first to encompass the folk, classical and syncretic music genres of Malaysia…There is no other source comparable for Malaysia, and thus this is an extremely valuable contribution.… a useful teaching tool and source of information on the major musical genres of Malaysia.’ Ethnomusicology Forum
‘This study is well-written, informative and an excellent resource for seminal work with under- and post-graduate students…The book is very well-edited, includes several pictures and gives many musical examples. A long bibliography and an exhaustive index round off the impression that this overview on Malaysian music is a very useful book indeed…’ Asien
