Kay Kaufman Shelemay’s impact as a mentor and colleague to a generation of scholars shines brightly in this wide-ranging edited collection. Shelemay took the field of ethnomusicology by storm with her bold and historically rich ethnography of Ethiopian Jewish music, pioneering the field of musical diaspora studies. Her investigation of musical communities—emphasizing memory, mobility, and the shifting of boundaries—has inspired many of the authors of this volume.
