GUEST,Pseudonymous Mediation and its definition in folk music (582* d) RE: Mediation and its definition in folk music 10 Mar 20


@ Jag. Hello. Responding to your post to the effect that particular practices aren't mediation because they are open. I'm not sure that this eliminates them, as it seems to me that the key thing is whether they reflect attitudes and opinions. So on one level harmonising would be, as presumably it reflects an attitude that doing this is better/valid/enjoyable etc. Maybe the term mediation is useful in that it does make us think about 'why' ie the attitudes and opinions (assuming we want to think about stuff at all, which may not always be the case)? Not trying to be definitive here, just putting forward thoughts.
