Where it came from
The Garland Encyclopedia of World Music serves as a definitive academic reference series, initiated by Garland Publishing in the 1990s to provide comprehensive, systematic coverage of musical traditions globally. Volume five, focused on the Indian subcontinent, was edited by ethnomusicologist Alison Arnold. It was conceived as a central resource for students and scholars, aiming to move beyond purely technical musicology by situating musical practices within their vital cultural, social, and historical contexts.
The design of the volume reflects an interdisciplinary approach, featuring contributions from various experts to document the diverse soundscapes of South Asia, ranging from classical raga traditions to regional folk music and contemporary film scores. Upon its release, the encyclopedia was widely praised within academia for its rigorous research and accessibility, becoming a standard staple in university libraries and music departments worldwide for its balanced exploration of regional identity and artistic heritage.
