| Summary: | The article examines a variety of local cultures in their relationship with modern Christianity as a global institution. The review summarizes three case studies conducted by the author in Israel and Canada over the past decade. These studies, reviewed in the article through various lenses and considered as three different sociocultural narratives, tell the reader how music, consciously or unconsciously, determines the contours of the cultural and religious identity of the groups whose members are natives or resettled residents of the Holy Land, Old and New Worlds, China and Australia. An updated analysis of ethnographic data points to local cultures as the true indicators of global change. |
