The Oxford Handbook of Music in China and the Chinese Diaspora
This volume provides an innovative vision for Chinese music studies in the twenty-first century. Each chapter advances research insights into a genre or context in Chinese music and develops a theoretical model applicable beyond the case studies. The volume includes contributions from researchers based in anglophone Europe and North America and also in sinophone settings including China, Taiwan, Malaysia, and Hong Kong SAR, and in Chinese diaspor…

Chinese Dance: In the Vast Land and Beyond
Chang and Frederiksen's book is a welcome contribution on a much underrepresented topic. Chinese dance remains little encountered or researched outside Chinese-speaking parts of the world, despite there being distinctive and interesting folk traditions, such as yangge, which was transformed through the political campaigns of the mid-twentieth century. Other Chinese dance traditions have more recently become sustained and reshaped through China's …

Scoring Alien Worlds: World Music Mashups in 21st Century Sci-Fi and Fantasy TV, Film and Video Games
This article provides three case studies of the use of world music resources to build alien worlds in mainstream screen media with Sci-Fi or Fantasy settings. The case studies—the TV series Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome, the film Avatar and the Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) video game World of Warcraft—show how composers and associated music professionals in the early twenty-first century increasingly draw on su…
Sounding the Bromance: The Chopstick Brothers’ ‘Little Apple’ Music Video, Genre, Gender and the Search for Meaning in Chinese Popular Music
This article analyses the music video of ‘Little Apple’ by Wang Taili and Xiao Yang, also known as the Chopstick Brothers, one of China’s most successful productions in 2014, and one that exemplifies certain emerging trends in Chinese popular music more generally. The music video draws on K-pop models but also on Western inspirations (biblical, historical and contemporary) and has proven hard to reduce to a single, definitive narrative or interpr…

Peripheries and interfaces: The Western impact on other music
Introduction The theme of this chapter is the encounter with Western musics of other peoples during the past one hundred years. Often only occasional and sporadic at the start of the twentieth century, contact with the music of elsewhere was by the end of that century part of the everyday lives of huge numbers of people worldwide (as much within as outside the Western world). The history of this shift might be written in several ways. From a tech…
Huju: Traditional Opera in Modern Shanghai
China has over three hundred distinct styles of music drama, from exorcism theatre to farce, historical romance, and shadow puppetry. This study considers one of the newer operatic forms. Established just two centuries ago, huju (Shanghai opera), is renowned for its portrayal of ordinary people, not the emperors, courtesans, and heroes of older forms. Acting and make-up aim for realism rather than symbolism, and stories deal with contemporaneous …
Place and Music: Institutions and Cosmopolitanism in ‘Shenqu’, Shanghai Traditional Local Opera, 1912–1949
The local opera of Shanghai (shenqu or tanhuang, now huju) underwent significant expansion and change in the first part of the twentieth century, often explained as its Golden Age, as it transformed from ballad‐style, seated performances of traditional dramas given by small troupes to fully acted operas by large ensembles based on contemporary news stories and foreign films. These changes are assessed from the twin perspectives of the rise of new…

The Application of Schenkerian Analysis to Ethnomusicology: Problems and Possibilities
With their shared interest in the exposition of deep musical structure and fundamental melodic procedure, ethnomusicology and Schenkerian analysis seem at first to be well-matched bedfellows. However, differences in ideological outlook have made the union of the two occasional, temporary and often ill-trusted, and there seems little prospect at present of the conception of a new breed of 'ethno-Schenkerians'. The first part of this essay provides…

Contemporary recital solos for the Chinese two-stringed fiddleerhu
Music for the Chinese two‐stringed fiddle erhu falls into several major categories: traditional ensemble music, ballad and opera accompaniments and newly written pieces by conservatory‐trained composers for modernized forms of traditional Chinese instruments. This essay focuses on the third category, examining the growth of a large repertory of solos for the erhu over the past seventy years. It takes account of political and social change within …

Reconsidering the Past: Zhou Xuan and the Rehabilitation of Early Twentieth-Century Popular Music
Le renouveau de la « musique jaune » chinoise des annees 1930, et plus particulierement des chants de Zhou Xuan, a deux reprises, en 1985 et en 1993, s'est effectuee pour des raisons et dans des contextes socio-politiques differents. La premiere fois, il s'agissait pour le gouvernement de ramener la population aux chansons de masse et a la detourner du « mauvais » chemin tout en introduisant la musique electronique. La deuxieme fois, Zhou Xuan ex…
An Ethnomusicological Perspective on Musical Style, with Reference to Music for Chinese Two-Stringed Fiddles
In a major publication of 1983 Bruno Netti identified the explanation of musical style as a central problem in ethnomusicological research. This essay is intended to offer a partial solution of that problem, seeking to define musical style as an abstraction of the matrix of cognitive and physical aspects which constitute human music-making. In the cognitive part of this equation I include the critically important role played by social context, co…

Music, Culture, and Experience: Selected Papers of John Blacking
One of the most important ethnomusicologists of the century, John Blacking is known for his interest in the relationship of music to biology, psychology, dance and politics. He attempted to document the ways in which music-making expresses the human condition, how it transcends social divisions and how it can be used to improve the quality of human life. This volume brings together eight of Blacking's most important theoretical papers which revea…

Musical Narrative, Ideology, and the Life of Abing
Les donnees de la biographie du musicien populaire chinois Abing ecrite par Yang Yinliu ne sont pas toutes sures et decrivent un personnage plutot romantique, revolutionnaire et patriotique alors que d'autres biographies presentent un homme qui se drogue.
