More than a bibliography, McCollum's work also deals with issues of context and culture that will be of interest to ethnomusicologists working in the area of Armenian music. It also includes a discography that spans from classical music to pop and folk.
This is the first full-scale bibliography of Armenian music and is indispensable to all who have a scholarly interest in the subject. It provides a firm basis for musicological work on music from Armenia as well as the Armenian diaspora and is a useful guide for scholars in related areas, such as anthropology, cultural history, Sovietology and West Asian social history.
Andy H. Nercessian began his musical career as a pianist playing in venues throughout Europe as recitalist or as soloist performing with orchestras. He is currently lecturer in ethnomusicology at the University of Durham, UK. Jonathan Ray McCollum is a lecturer in ethnomusicology at the University of Maryland. As the former Assistant Curator of Collections at the Armenian Library and Museum of America and as consultant for the Smithsonian institution, he has had the opportunity to cultivate interest in a variety of fields and to perform fieldwork throughout Japan, North America and Europe. In addition to his academic activities, he is an active performer, specializing on the trombone, sakbut, world flutes, kinko-ryu shakuhachi, and ikuta-ryu koto.
