"The 2003 UNESCO Convention on the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage was a major step in addressing concerns about musical diversity and vitality on a global scale. 180 nation-states have ratified the Convention to date. Many have developed policies to address the sustainability of their music practices. On the eve of its twentieth anniversary of the Convention, 14 experts were invited to reflect on two decades of approaching music as Intangible Cultural Heritage. In introducing the contributions to this volume, this chapter introduces the genesis of the Convention, its most prominent features, its workings and successes, and the challenges that have arisen from using this framework to address threats to music sustainability worldwide"--

Abstract : In recent decades, communities across the world have been impacted by a raft of deep economic, social and political changes within their local and global environments. For some communities, these changes have had little effect on the vitality of their music genres, or have even strengthened them. For others - especially indigenous and minority communities - the changes have threatened the viability of certain genres, often against the will of the communities concerned. This in turn holds potential repercussions for individual and social identity, social cohesion, and the strength of other forms of cultural expression within those communities, as well as holding wider repercussions for the diversity of human heritage and even potentially the adaptability of our species. Since the early 1990s, when linguists fully recognised the dire predicament of many of the world's 6,000+ languages, the study of language endangerment and maintenance has raised general awareness of language loss, as well as increasing practical knowledge of how endangered languages might be supported. Relatively, efforts to sustain endangered music genres remain incipient. Breaking with a tradition in ethnomusicology of ethnographic and fieldwork-based studies, this dissertation theoretically investigates the ways in which research and practical experience from the field of language maintenance can inform efforts to support the sustainability of music genres. It responds to an increasing sense of urgency to address the wide-scale endangerment and loss of intangible expressions of culture, including music, as underscored by the 2003 UESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage. Drawing on literature from both language maintenance and ethnomusicology, interviews with linguists and ethnomusicologists, and a case study (in turn based on literature, interviews, and a field visit), in this dissertation I argue that the extensive experiences and discourse from language maintenance hold significant relevance to efforts that support music genres to become or remain vibrant and viable. The dissertation presents four key outcomes of the research. The first is a theoretical framework articulating the synergies and disconnects between language and music, specifically in relation to their viability. The second is a framework for assessing the level of vitality of music genres, based on an equivalent framework for languages. The third is a case study of a specific music genre demonstrating how this framework functions in practice. The fourth is a set of recommendations for progressing efforts in music sustainability. I hope these outcomes may act as points of reference and departure for researchers, policy-makers, culture-bearers themselves, and other stakeholders in cultural vitality and viability, with the overarching aim to ultimately benefit the communities whose music genres are facing challenges to their viability. In this way, this dissertation contributes to a growing body of applied ethnomusicological research on the broad topic of music sustainability.

As economic, technological and cultural change gathers pace across the world, issues of music heritage and sustainability have become ever more pressing. Discourse on intangible cultural heritage has developed in complex ways in recent years, and musical practices have been transformed by safeguarding agendas. Music as Heritage takes stock of these transformations, bringing new ethnographic and historical perspectives to bear on our encounters with music heritage. The volume evaluates the cultural politics, ethics and audiovisual representation of music heritage; the methods and consequences of music transmission across national borders; and the perennial issues of revival, change and innovation. UNESCO’s 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage provides an essential reference point for studies of music heritage. However, this volume also pays attention to important spheres of musical activity that lie outside of UNESCO’s reach and the reasons why some repertories of music are chosen for safeguarding while others are not. Some practices of art music in Europe explored in this book, for example, have received little attention despite being susceptible to endangerment. Developing a comparative framework that cuts across genre distinctions and disciplinary boundaries, Music as Heritage explores how music cultures are being affected by heritage discourse and the impact of international and national policies on grass-roots music practices.
