"""This book is absolutely a treasure for music education, particularly in contributing to the knowledge of Asian ethnic music in the world music education. The different personal stories are life case studies to reflect how political, socio-economical and cultural contexts may shape the musical life and identity of individuals. This is an impressive text for courses of music education, ethnomusicology, and anthropology."" Professor Bo-Wah LEUNG, President, International Society for Music Education"
