Nettl is professor emeritus of music and anthropology at the University of Illinois, and a leader in the field of ethnomusicology over the past five decades. In 2012, he was named Charles Homer Hoskins Lecturer by the American Council of Learned Societies and is the first recipient of the Tai Ji Traditional Music Award (scholarship category) by the China conservatory, Beijing. Of his 26 books, best-known are “The Study of Ethnomusicology” (rev. ed. 2005), and “Heartland Excursions: Ethnomusicological Reflections on Schools of Music” (1995). His latest, “Becoming an Ethnomusicologist: A Miscellany of Influences,” will be published by Scarecrow Press in 2013.
