Primarily aimed at academic researchers in ethnomusicology and related fields, the book provides detailed analytical descriptions and narratives of artists, instruments and playing styles. It contributes to discussions on music, decolonisation and diasporic communities’ demands for authenticity and recognition. By revealing lesser-known fiddle traditions, it enriches the world music genre, attracting both academic and general readers interested in transcultural music studies.
Dr Luiz Moretto holds an honors degree in music from Santa Catarina State University and a doctorate in ethnomusicology from King’s College London. He is a professional fiddle player and composer whose performances and recordings encompass various styles of African and Brazilian music, subjects that have been the focus of his research over many years.
