Abstract:
Music is by nature geographical. Musical phrases have movement and direction, as
though there are places in the music: quiet places and noisy places, places that offer
familiarity, nostalgia or a sense of difference, while the dynamism of music reflects
changing lives. Sound is a crucial element in the world we construct for ourselves,
and the world that others construct and impose on us (Connell and Gibson 2003:
p280).
