In this paper we discuss whether inclusive grassroots music associations may reduce the strength of the correlation between social status, cultural capital, and “omnivorousness” in musical taste. Drawing upon data from 810 members of local brass bands in the alpine province of Trentino, we suggest that participation in brass bands and other social and cultural activities reduces the impact of cultural and economic capital over omnivorousness.

Abstract
In this paper we discuss whether inclusive grassroots music associations may reduce the strength of the correlation between social status, cultural capital, and “omnivorousness” in musical taste. Drawing upon data from 810 members of local brass bands in the alpine province of Trentino, we suggest that participation in brass bands and other social and cultural activities reduces the impact of cultural and economic capital over omnivorousness.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione
