| Professor Wolf is an internationally leading ethnomusicologist. He has written extensively on folk and classical music in India and Pakistan. His books and articles examine socio-musical aspects of style in Karnatak music, problems of rhythm in a variety of south Asian genres, musical and social dimensions of indigeneity in India, and the roles of music in religious and life-cycle ceremonies. Professor Wolf is also an internationally recognized performer of the south Indian vina (a long necked lute). In Germany he will work together with Frank Heidemann on an edited volume entitled The Bison and the Horn: Indigeneity, Performance, and the State of India. |
