This is not the symptom of marketization that it might appear to be. Despite the establishment of an international governing body, competitions are plagued by rumors of corruption, and even the most mathematically sophisticated voting system cannot quell accusations that the best talent is overlooked. Why do musicians take part? Why do audiences care so much about who wins? This is the first book to address these questions. In this groundbreaking study, Lisa McCormick draws from firsthand observations of contests in Europe and the US, in-depth interviews with competitors, jurors and directors, as well as blog data from competition observers to argue that competitions have endured because they are not only about music, they are also about civility. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Music|xCompetitions|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85088781|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Music|xCompetitions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1030300 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMcCormick, Lisa.|tPerforming civility.
