From Library Journal
Following 13 essays on "Ethnomusicologists at Work," the final volume in the monumental Garland Encyclopedia of World Music interfiles and reprints the glossaries and indexes of the other nine volumes and reprints the "guides to reference sources" (bibliographies, discographies, filmographies) from all the volumes without interfiling them. The essays are personal statements from scholars who have made ethnographic music study their career and describe their own musical training, how their interest in music took an anthropological turn, insider-outsider experiences while doing research all over the world, and the various techniques scholars employ while doing field work. By itself, this volume stands as an inspiring career guide for students of world music, an integrated dictionary of mainly non-English music terms from all the cultures covered by the encyclopedia, and a sourcebook for ethnomusicology publications and recordings, as well as an overall index to the ten-volume set. Even specialized libraries that do not own the entire set may want this on their shelves, especially if their patrons have a general interest in world music.

Review
This unique and thoroughly researched resource provides a dynamic and in depth perspective on world music... It strikes a balance between wonderful illustrations and comprehensive, scholarly entries. Each regional volume includes a CD sampler of that region's music. This source will have wide appeal to both the novice and expert. -- Dartmouth Medal
In a beautiful finish for this legendary encyclopedia, the final volume arrives at last, proving unique and informative on many levels. Some of the leading experts in the field describe how they got started and offer advice for research practices and fieldwork--inspiring essays that will be invaluable to budding ethnomusicologists. -- Choice
The book is well laid out and does an excellent job of providing an extensive overview of the material covered by the rest of the series. This title should be a required addition for any library owning other volumes in The Garland Encyclopedia of World Music set. -- Feliciter
Essential for libraries that have acquired the other 10 volumes in this series. -- American Reference Books Annual
The final volume in the weighty Garland Encyclopedia of World Music... Caps a comprehensive 10-volume set on the topic and should not be missed by any serious world music library... This is packed with excellent reference source material. -- The Bookwatch
Even specialized libraries that do no own the entire set may want this on their shelves... -- Library Journal starred review
