Music in Bulgaria is a volume in the Global Music Series, edited by Bonnie Wade and Patricia Campbell. This volume, appropriate for use in undergraduate, introductory courses on world music or ethnomusicology, gives an overview of the cultural, historical, and political meaning of traditional Bulgarian music. The book examines how traditional Bulgarian music has been preserved over decades of modernization, and explores the social and economic forces that have kept the music alive, not only in Bulgaria but around the world.
