Focus: Music and Religion of Morocco introduces the region and its history, highlighting
how the pressures of religious life, post-colonial economic struggle, and global media
come together within Moroccan musical life. Musical practices contextualize and clarify
global historical and contemporary movements-many of which remain poorly understood-while
articulating the daily realities of the region's populations in ways that rarely show
through current news accounts of religious extremism, poverty and inequality, and
forced migration. As with other volumes in the series, Focus: Music and Religion of
Morocco addresses large, conceptual issues though interwoven case studies, in three
parts: Part I - Memories and Medias: Who We Are highlights how issues of religion,
colonialism, nationalism, and globalization transcend boundaries through music to
create a sense of personal and national identity, whether hundreds of years ago or
on today's satellite television stations. Part II - Contesting Mainstreams: Where
We're Going explores Morocco's sacred and secular music practices as they relate to
the country's diversity and its contemporary politics. Part III - Focusing In: Fun
and Faith in Fez highlights Fez's sacred music industry by introducing musicians who
navigate musical and religious expectations to appeal to both their own devotional
ethnics and their audiences' wants. Links to music examples referenced in the text
