Contemporary Popular Music Studies

Abstract

The volume Contemporary Popular Music Studies: Proceedings of the 19th Conference of the International Association for the Study of Popular Music (Kassel, Germany, 26–30 June 2017) presents the continuation of the publishing activity within Springer’s series “Systematische Musikwissenschaft” (edited by Jan Hemming) related to the 19th Biennial IASPM conference held in Kassel in 2017. The present volume includes twenty six technically and stylistically edited papers, whose abstracts were approved by the IASPM Academic Committee, even though several of them were not presented at the conference (cf. Merrill and Hemming 2017). This volume ends with the “Erratum” section containing one correction/addition which refers to the previous volume in this series (Merrill 2017).
