Review
'This is a strong book for students with limited musical training. I really like the improvements that have come with the 3rd edition.The photos are particularly great.' – Gavin Douglas, University of North Carolina, Greensboro 'Students are exposed to new terminology and concepts critical to the fundamental core of classes in their early curriculum. The listening guides are very useful. This book achieves a good balance between ethnomusicology and communicating fundamental music concepts.' – Al Johnson, Medgar Evers College, CUNY

Even though this book is required for a class I am taking, I was reluctant to purchase it based on the reviews saying the product is not as advertised. I agree that the description is unclear, but I purchased the paperback & 3 CD set directly from Amazon, and the product arrived in new condition with all three working CDs. I can't say whether other versions (the Kindle edition, hardcover, copies from third-party sellers) would arrive with the music needed. At $73.27, it's not the worst price I've had to pay for a physical textbook (with CDs) by far. Just make sure that the version you are purchasing will have everything you need and you know how to access the audio content, CD or mp3, before you decide.As for the content, it seems to be a pretty standard textbook. I skimmed through sections (my class hasn't started yet), and it seems to have good information. I'm posting my review now, before I've really used the book, to make it clear that it is possible to purchase a version with the music you will probably need for a class.UPDATE May 2014:Now that I have finished my class I have changed my rating from 4 to 3 stars. While the book contains a lot of good, accurate information, it is somewhat poorly organized, and at times I found it confusing to read. I also noticed several editing errors that were not just typos but content problems. The worst error I found was a chapter review question that referenced a paragraph that had been removed from this edition (which made doing my homework pretty difficult). I'm still giving it three stars because I felt I learned a lot, but at times this book takes some extra effort to fully understand it.
I payed a little extra to get this "Like New" book instead of a few cheaper ones, but when I came the pages were dirty on the outside, there was some writing inside, and worst of all the cover was bent all over the place. I was pretty disappointed and the bent cover bothers me every time I read it. Didn't have time to return and order a different book since I needed it for school, so now I'm stuck with it. This seller has a few reviews where the condition did not match the stated condition--I'd go with someone else.
This is a great text. I am using it to teach a World Music class and it has a lot of information and examples.Many people rated this low becuase they said it did not come with the Mp3. That is not the case. At the end of the table of contents is says to email AcademiceBooksSupport@informa.com with proof of purchasing the eBook (I just forwarded my email from Amazon) and they email you back with a code. After you have that code it is a simple process and you have access to the Mp3.
If you read in the beginning of the book after the table of contents it tells you to send an email to AcademiceBooksSupport@informa.com with proof of purchase in order to access the MP3 files. My email was returned within 24 hours with a link and access code to a site to download the music files for all 3 CD's. How to complain when the CD's cost $40 and the book upwards of $50 but renting the book and getting the MP3's for $14. Win-win.
This book came from apex media. The book is in terrible shape and more importantly the cd's are so abused some of the tracks will not play. that makes the entire product worthless. It is actually less than worthless because now school has started and I can not complete my assignments and this is an online class so I am on my own. There is no excuse for poorly ran businesses or outright fraud. I hope no one buys from Apex media and they go out of business.
The book is pretty good and I found it to be a pretty good companion for learning beyond the world music class that I took. I will be keeping this book for reference in the future.The CD's...that was another issue. They had superficial scratches all over them and during some of the audio tracks would skip or there would be digital noise indicative of scratches on the CD surface.I contacted the publisher and insisted that they be replaced due to faulty packaging. There were 2 other students in my class that had issues with disc damage due to packaging as well. After a short rebuttal, they replaced them but don't count on it being replaced within the time that you need them. Go to your college library and rip them real quick (no harm, you already paid for them) the text and discs should be on reserve. Some might find it quicker or more efficient to go through Amazon with a replacement since they are selling the product that has known packaging issues.There is some pretty good music on the discs if you are into anything other than pop-crap.
