Summary:

The Garland Handbook of Southeast Asian Music is a smaller textbook edition of the comprehensive Garland Encyclopedia of World Music, Volume 4, Southeast Asia (1998). It is intended for undergraduate and graduate area studies courses in music, ethnomusicology, and anthropology. Like the original volume, its division into three sections (Introduction to Southeast Asia as a Musical Area, Issues and Processes in Southeast Asian Musics, and Music Cultures and Regions) enables students and their professors to cover a thorough range of material about both mainland and island Southeast Asia within one text.
