Exam topics will be carried throughout course but speci c countries tested for each exam! Cultural relativism: every culture has different music styles (not being cultural relative ! when comparing hip hop to classical and saying hip hop has no classical notes included, basically mangoes to mangoes and oranges to oranges)! Case study #1: andean indigenous siku tropa from conima, peru (right next to lake titicaca)! Participatory music: goal of tradition is to get many people involved! If performed correctly, you can hear the egalitarianism and communitarianism! Different types of dif culty (some play pan pipes and drums while others only play one)! Dense sound (not clear) which is part of their tradition bc its made so no individual ! stands out! Drum has to be study bc it holds the music together! If you asking people to play something at exact same time and speci c music then it ! wouldn"t be participatory !
