#Musicology folks: I'm preparing to teach my seminar Contemporary Issues in Musicology. This class uses 6 recently published monographs as a window into the current state of the field. What books published since 2015 do you feel might be a good candidate?

My essay on Ralph Ellison the audiophile is out in the world. It’s a reflection on writing about music and listening to writing. The collection may not be on the radars of music folks, so do holler if you’d like to read a copy.
