2 This said, the book does not locate value only in ‘high’ musics; Hesmondhalgh explicitly distances his project from the Adornian tradition of music criticism, and what he characterizes as its ‘seeming contempt for everyday cultural experience in modern societies’ (35).
3 Indeed, there is a prescriptive aspect to the writing: an emphasis on what music should or could do to enhance flourishing. It is fascinating to compare Hesmondhalgh's list with the more descriptive discussions of the functions of music in writing by Alan Merriam and Bruno Nettl; see Merriam, Alan, The Anthropology of Music (Evanston, IL: Northwestern University Press, 1964), 219–27Google Scholar; Nettl, Bruno, The Study of Ethnomusicology: Thirty-one Issues and Concepts, 2nd edn (Urbana, IL: University of Illinois Press, 2005), 244–58Google Scholar. Hesmondhalgh's goals are very different, yet all three authors might be said to be concerned with explaining ‘why music matters’.
