Ha! Thanks. That convo has been going on for a couple of years. If expect a forensic musicologist to be called on( I actually know one!)

one think my latent inner academic must point out is that 'ethnomusicology' didn't really exist yet in 1893.

They're just trying to explain what she did in modern terms I guess.

Argh using modern terms out of line--like homosexuality in the early modern period.

It's even more than that-- most of those scholars weren't even doing what we think of Ethno. now. They were comparative musicologists. BUt i'll stop geeking out now!

But we like geeking!!

dopiaza did you know synecdoche on Flickr? Just wondering

no, I don't think so. I recognise the username, but not sure our paths really crossed.

She was a musicologist. I thought that was coincidence enough!

Btw she marries Flickr guy Iain and lives an hour from London now
