Problem
Topic: Ethnomusicology is the study of the music cultures of our world (i.e., World Music). For this assignment you are asked to document your personal ethnomusicological background. What is your "music culture"? Where are you/your family from, or from where, or with what music culture do you most identify? How do you interact/participate with your music culture in your day to day life (what music do you listen to/attend/perform, etc.)? How does your family interact/participate with music culture? How did your ancestors? Ideally, this paper should be biographically informative (tell me about yourself and how you interact with the musical world) and approach your own life/culture with the same type of analysis we've used to discuss other music cultures in the course.
Length: 3-4 pages, double-spaced, 12pt standard font (The ideal "finish line" should be somewhere near the end of the 3rd, or the beginning of the 4th page).
Pictures and extended quotations are acceptable/encouraged, but do not contribute to text length requirements.
Format: No Title Page, include Works Cited page only if necessary.
If you use specific musical examples (encouraged), provide YouTube link, if possible.
No specific format (MLA, APA, etc.) required.
Use appropriate spelling and grammar (but don't worry, no points will be taken off for misspelling/grammar).
