| Abstract | While music theory has seen efforts to make the field more inclusive and diverse, the work of scholars of the majority continues to be overrepresented in our pedagogical resources. This collection seeks to change that paradigm by assembling short essays by marginalized scholars modeling analytical writing for students using a variety of music theories and genres from diverse regions, including China, India, Japan, North and South America, and Turkey. The essays represent current trends in analysis that engage varied musical genres, including ballet, film music, jazz, musical theatre, opera, popular music, and video game music, among others. This book marks an important step in making music theory, the classroom, and the study of music more inclusive by amplifying the representation of, and substantive contributions made by, scholars of color. |
