*Trans. Transcultural Music Review* is the refereed on-line journal of SIBE (the Iberian Society for Ethnomusicology). It publishes contributions about (ethno)musicology in general, critical and feminist (ethno)musicology, popular music studies, music aesthetics, cognitive ethnomusicology, etc., Its aim is to cross borders and establish alliances with fellow disciplines (anthropology, sociology, cultural studies, psychoanalysis, philosophy, cognitive sciences, semiotics, etc.), which could widen the epistemological boundaries of current musical knowledge.
