Zusatztext The Oxford Handbook of Music and World Christianities demonstrates that ethnomusicology is a field that religious studies scholars cannot afford to ignore. Largely, but not exclusively, situated within that discipline, it effectively places the study of Christianities in a global context that allows for new critical narratives and theories about the nature and history of Christianity.
