Abstract

This thesis argues that existing academic approaches to studying music in everyday life underplay various contextual factors and neglect momentary musical activities that are enacted amidst the demands of domestic life. The connection of music to everyday life is often taken for granted. For example, the musical activities that often accompany domestic routines, such as singing, dancing or humming to songs heard on the radio or television may be quickly forgotten. Yet, as this thesis will demonstrate, these relatively mundane activities an become highly significant on a number of levels.
