Abstract
s an anthropologist who has consistently argued for the analysis and interpretation of musical performances as part of social processes, I found Tim Rice's paper very interesting. It is especially valuable for the way it documents some of the difficulties some ethnomusicologists have had in successfully applying anthropological approaches to musical performance. Since I agree with the author on many points, I will discuss only three issues: the description of Merriam's itself, developments in Anthropology since 1964, and observations on the necessity of constructing a single model for the field of Ethnomusicology.
