The concept of"urban music"was first proposed by B.Nettl,but he did not put forward a clear concept of it at that time.At present,it is generally acknowledged that"urban music"is a universal concept and does not refer to a particular type of music.Looking at the research direction and trends of urban music anthropology in the academic circle,this paper mainly divides into three parts:theoretical discussion,regional practice and interdisciplinary research,which are independent and inseparable from each other,and initially constitute a solid foundation for the research of urban music anthropology.
