Welcome to the Regional and national music taskforce, a collaboration area and group of editors dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Regional and national music.
This taskforce aims to do the following:
This taskforce deals with articles relating to a specific area or people. This includes articles like Music of Sweden, Music of Tanzania, Inuit music, Shinto music, Roma music and Esperanto music; all member articles should be listed at list of cultural and regional genres of music.
In the world today, boundaries are fluid, so the territorial nature of music is changing. There has always been musical migration and cross-pollination, but it's much faster now - due to faster travel and communications, and especially due to computers allowing non-traditional or non-regional musicians to include traditional or regional elements in their work.
Therefore this project also indirectly addresses fusion forms that include or are based-upon the music of one or more regions or cultures. Music from the wider world also now is affecting the music of regions and cultures, so we can also address the effects of those influences on the original forms; are they being lost or surviving on their own, or being preserved with intention?
