Organisational theorists have become increasingly interested in the creative industries, where practices that are commonplace are of particular interest to organisations in other sectors as they look for new ways to enhance performance. Focusing on the music industry, this book sets up a unique dialogue between leading organisational theorists and music professionals. Part I explores links between organisation theory and the creative industries literature, concentrating on practices of organising and knowledge mobilisation, followed by an in-depth discussion of key theoretical concepts by subject experts. Part II provides a diverse range of 'tales from the field', including examples from classical orchestras, folk, indie and punk. The concluding chapter examines the shared dialogue to reveal what practice in the musical field can learn from organisational theory, and vice versa. This innovative book will interest graduate students and researchers in the fields of organisation studies, music management and the creative industries.

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xxx + 414 pages, NOT ex-library. Minor handling wear, interior is clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This is an innovative interdisciplinary study that applies organisation theory to the musical field, facilitating a direct dialogue between academic theorists and music industry professionals. It explores how the practices of music-making can inform modern management and vice versa, particularly in areas like performance, leadership, and knowledge mobilisation. Core Structure and Content: The volume is divided into two primary sections to bridge the gap between abstract theory and real-world practice: - Part I: Theoretical Perspectives: Consists of 16 chapters where leading academics from fields such as sociology, marketing, and strategy apply specific theoretical lenses to music. It focuses on the "practices of organising" and how creative knowledge is shared and mobilised; - Part II: Tales from the Field: Features a diverse range of case studies and "field stories" from various musical genres, including classical orchestras, folk, indie, and punk. These accounts provide a "bottom-up" look at the actual social and commercial undertaking of music-making. The concluding chapter examines what both fields can learn from each other, revealing insights into teamwork, group dynamics, and learning that are applicable to other sectors looking for new ways to enhance performance. -- Key Thematic Highlights: The editors curate several recurring themes throughout the essays: - Identity and Emotion: How musicians construct their identities within organizations, such as symphony orchestras, and how they reconcile personal artistic passion with the demands of a commercial universe; - Collaboration vs. Competition: The tension between the need for solidarity among performers and the "ruthless competitive streak" required to succeed in a crowded market; - Leadership and Dynamics: Using the "free and easy open play" of the music industry as a model for exploring more flexible, creative approaches to organizational leadership and team management. The book is considered a major contribution to the "practice turn" in organizational studies, praised for stimulating fresh thinking about music as a "social, commercial, and artistic undertaking".
