Abstract

Based on the problem formulation, ‘What does Ethnomusicology reveal about Nationalistic identity in the US and Denmark?’, this project analyses the messages nationalism has on music by using cases from the years between 2002 – 2023. The project itself is based on the idea that ethnomusicology can be used to create a subliminal messaging and create a deeper narrative about nationalism. The paper itself is based on the ideas of Banal and Aggressive nationalism while being a comparative analysis of the US and Denmark using Ethnomusicology as a lens to observe through. The intention is to help achieve an understanding of Nationalism as a spectrum and its connection differing based off the culture and events happening in each respective country
