Description

Adelaide is a UNESCO City of Music. Melbourne claims to be a global music capital. And across the country, fans pack live venues every night.

In her new book, The Great Music City, Dr Andrea Baker explores what it takes to be a musical city, and questions whether the reality stacks up to the branding exercise.
