There’s little doubt that music is as affected as any art by the ‘Western Canon’. I’d hazard a guess that way over half of my music collection is made up of artists from either the UK or the US. There’s Ireland of course, and there are probably a fair few Canadians and Australians, some from the Nordic countries, and maybe the odd bit from Japan, but really even in a vast musical collection, probably only a small portion of the world is covered by anyone but the most discerning collector.
