currentmusicology-4948	Scherzinger, Martin	Notes on a Postcolonial Musicology: Kofi Agawu and the Critique of Cultural Difference [Agawu, Kofi. 2003. Representing African Music: Postcolonial Notes, Queries, Positions. New York and London: Routledge, 304 pp.]	2003	28	.pdf	application/pdf	12110	534	49	Consequently, Agawu is less concerned here with the problem of familiarizing African music by imposing on it Western categories of communication than he is with the problematic desire to persistently defamiliarize it or with the refusal to bring African music into the realm of Western discourse and its distinguished intellectual history and undeniable institutional power. By encouraging the hunt for sameness rather than difference in our approaches to African music, Agawu implies that we may indeed bring traditional European conceptual tools to bear on African music instead of insisting on an a priori incompatibility between traditions (64).	cache/currentmusicology-4948.pdf	txt/currentmusicology-4948.txt
