Book Reviews of Underground Harmonies: Music and Politics in the Subways of New York (Anthropology of Contemporary Issues)
Book Review: Finally-Wonderful Intellectual Inquiry By A Non-Academic
Summary: 5 Stars
Tanenbaum's "Underground Harmonies" is simply a beautiful and intelligent study of subway street musicians. Not only does she have the ability to write a colorful and vivid ethnography, she also displays the sociological and legal know-how to analyze their social significance and debate the institutional absorbtion of street musicians by the city.
