the world of music (new series) 13 (1), 2024 is online

Issue 13:1 of the world of music (new series) is now online. Guest-edited by Jacob Olley, the issue is entitled "Resounding 1923: Musical Modernities from the Ottoman Empire to the Turkish Republic“. The articles in this issue reconsider the historical and contemporary discourses that have accrued around 1923 and explore the relationship between music, politics, and social life in Turkey and beyond from the late Ottoman period until today. For this issue, guest editor Jacob Olley has brought together authors whose research engages with diverse periods, musical genres, and theoretical approaches. The contributions to this issue offer critical new perspectives on music and modernity, particularly in terms of political and cultural interactions between the Ottoman Empire, the Republic of Turkey, Europe, and the other communities and states that emerged out of the Ottoman Empire.
