Sound and taste conjugate a special relationship, and they are often presented and represented together.

The linkage between music and food has been a traditional field for artists to suggest, among various emotions, love and sexual desire, happiness, fear, and rebellion, as well as environmental, urban, ethnic, and class values.

This multi-author book explores the interconnectedness of music and food and their meaningful relations.

With a multicultural approach, chapters focus on various historical periods and world cultures.

Music and food links are explored within the framework of different disciplines, such as musicology, literature, anthropology, and history.
