PRE-ORDER NOW Making Music Together : Analytical Perspectives on Musical Interaction by Garrett Michaelsen
PRE-ORDER NOW - Published: 06/05/2026
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.Binding: Hardback
