Anthony Seeger’s Contribution to Ethnomusicology: A Bio-Bibliography of the Why Suyá Sing’s (1987) Author
Abstract
This research is a bio-bibliographical study of an American ethnomusicologist, Anthony Seeger. Issues discussed include seeking information about Seeger as an important figure, his contribution to scientific development, music education, music history, and basic knowledge of ethnomusicology. Since the data are in the form of written sources that not only come from his works but also the works of others who cite his works so that literature review is used as a research method to obtain answers to the problems raised. This study concluded that the anthropological approach greatly influenced the characteristics of Seeger’s field research in studying the Suyá’s music in the interior part of Brazil. The report from the research turned out to be an essential source for the development of Seeger’s theories of musical anthropology. From the success of Seeger, we could learn how important fieldwork is in ethnomusicology.
