Reviews for Critical Approaches to the Production of Music and Sound

Critical Approaches to the Production of Music and Sound is a wide-ranging collection of essays by scholars steeped in practice. It is a vital contribution to the literature, offering fresh insights and research on the evolving interface of music and technology. * Albin Zak, Professor of Music, University at Albany, USA * Anyone who thinks deeply about the production of sound and music needs this book. This welcome collection of essays ranges widely, breaking through disciplinary barriers and bringing together an exhilarating array of subjects and methodologies. Perhaps most impressively, it combines—and nicely blurs—theory and practice, modeling a vibrant and much-needed dialogue between the two. * Mark Katz, Professor of Music, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA *
