Compiled from the studies of students, alumni, and faculty members of the ITU Dr. Erol Üçer Center for Advanced Studies in Music (MIAM), this book establishes a multidimensional ground for discussion by centering on the concepts of experience, creativity, interpretation, and expression in music. Consisting of ten articles, the work addresses different musical genres and disciplines together within a broad thematic framework ranging from the relationship between technology and creativity to sound recording practices, and from the issues of identity and class in music to affect theories. Aiming to contribute to music education and research in Turkey, the book serves as an important reference source for academics, graduate students, and readers interested in music through its interdisciplinary approach that questions how musical meaning is produced within historical and cultural contexts.
