*[Apologies for cross-listings]*

*The Musical Heritage of al-Andalus *is now available in an OpenAccess
edition.  The entire volume can be downloaded as a single PDF, or the
individual chapters may be downloaded separately to make it easier to
assign them as readings in university courses.

*Winner of the 2022 Premio del Rey book Prize (American History
Association) and the 2022 Early Music prize (American Musicological
Society)*

“. . . The twelve chapters of *The Musical Heritage of al-Andalus* track
the pernicious politics of ‘influence’; interreligious and intercultural
negotiations beyond the traditional, narrow tripartition of Muslims,
Christians, and Jews; gender roles and sexual identities; the development
of ‘revolutionary’ Arabic and Hebrew lyric genres in Iberia; and the
complex intertwining of social status, ethnicity, enslavement, and music
professionalization (alongside much more). . . Reynolds makes accessible a
rich body of work that may be unfamiliar to the wider readership that the
book invites, and offers compelling new arguments for specialized readers.”

This is the companion volume to *Medieval Arab Music and Musicians *(Brill
2022) that was released as an OpenAccess edition earlier this month:
