Abstract:
Pollution, biodiversity loss, climate change, sustainability: in recent years environmental issues have become some of the most significant socio-political, and arguably, moral, concerns of our time. However, there seems to be a cultural gap holding people back from taking the necessary steps to stop the emergency. Ecomusicology, which is defined as “the study of music, culture, and nature in all the complexities of those terms". Indeed, ecomusicology can be considered as a “crisis field” apt to address issues of music and the environment in a time of environmental crisis.
