Music and Northern Forest Cultures
This article argues that it is critical to recognize the importance of northern forests in Finno-Ugric musical contexts (Finnish and Karelian) by focusing on the question of cultural survival, which is connected with thinking about global challenges, including climate change and environmental pressure. The discussion highlights cultural survival by outlining the significance of the forest, the politics of language transmission with reference to t…
Dance, music and cultures of decolonisation in the Indian Diaspora
Decolonisation is a creative process, as well as a historical and political one. This article outlines key issues in researching the creative processes of decolonisation with reference to dance and music in the Indian Diaspora. It begins with Gandhi's ‘experiments with truth’, which first developed a political reach in the context of Indian indenture within the British Empire but left a fractured legacy in the decolonising era. Their conceptual i…

It discusses how orchestras are embedded in socio-historical and economic contexts, and highlights intercultural, compositional and rehearsal processes. The chapters describe orchestral creativity and perfor…
Sonic Images of the Sacred in Sámi Cinema
This essay explores ‘indigenous’ and ‘western’ forms of the sacred through the case of the Sámi in the northern fringes of Europe. The focus is on sonic images, ritual performance, shamanic drum practice and animal symbolism in the film Ofelaš (Pathfinder 1987). The essay explores how this film represents and affirms indigenous sacrality, reinscribes the dualities of indigenous–western and reifies ethnic politics in the northernmost regions of mo…

Music in circulation between diasporic histories and modern media
A complex scenario connecting Indian labour history, British imperial history and nineteenth century musical histories provides a context for understanding contemporary Indian diasporic musical practice in the Caribbean. This is a scenario that led to the formation of the ‘old Indian Diaspora’, as it is now known, which links the modern Indian nation-state to diverse geographic locations through both primary and secondary migrations. Contemporary…
The Orchestration of Civil Society
This article explores the symphony orchestra's potential to contribute to the making of civil society. It highlights orchestral attempts to reach new communities through repertoire choices, outreach projects, interactive digital technologies, and initiatives addressing poverty and environmentalism.

Musical Performance in the Diaspora
This article outlines some key issues in the study of musical performance in diasporic contexts and introduces the case studies in this volume. It explores contrasting approaches to 'difference' and representations of 'otherness' in the multicultural society to question the relevance of an ethnomusicological commitment to musical ethnicity in studying diasporic music-making. It points out some of the ways in which ethnomusicologists have negotiat…
Creating Their Own Space
Characterized by fast-paced, highly danceable rhythms, Chutney is a fusion of traditional and contemporary Indian and Caribbean influences. With its roots in the Hindi folk songs performed at birth and wedding ceremonies, Chutney has recently emerged in contemporary Indian-Caribbean life and has gone largely unrecognized in the body of scholarly literature. In this volume Tina K. Ramnarine explores the revolution of Chutney and introduces the eme…
