The invention of "folk music" and "art music" emerging categories from Ossian to Wagner
This book considers the origins and implications of the way in which we categorize music. Matthew Gelbart argues that folk music and art music became meaningful concepts only in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and affect the way we create, perform and listen to music.
