It would be impossible to recognise the full extent of this support here, but certain points are worth emphasising. I am grateful for the support of all those in Marseille who took the time to meet me, to share their experiences and perspectives, to offer their hospitality, to show me places and, in the process, to dissolve many of my myriad assumptions and expectations. I would also like to thank all those who have listened to and commented on my academic presentations, both at conferences and within the university department. In particular I would like to thank Dr. Laudan Nooshin for her feedback and, above all, for introducing me to many of the themes and concepts that first ignited my interest in studying for a PhD. The process has involved some major challenges, personally as well as intellectually. I must acknowledge the support provided to me, patiently and with humbling abundance, by my family and all those close to me. Finally I would like to thank Professor Stephen Cottrell, who as my supervisor has been tireless in stimulating ideas, offering encouragement and advice, and providing thoughtful and generative feedback at every stage of the process. 4 5 Introduction This thesis considers how musical culture shapes, and is shaped by, the contested redevelopment of contemporary Marseille. Drawing on ethnographic research and documentary analysis, it investigates debates about cultural representation, struggles over the regulation of nightlife, the production of grassroots scenes, and other practices in and through which music is made meaningful. The thesis focuses primarily on the period from 2013 to 2016, when the research was carried out. A secondary frame, extending back to the early 1990s, provides the immediate historical background, and where relevant I also discuss processes and events from earlier periods. Unlike some ethnomusicological studies, the focus is not on a single genre, idiom, form or other normative category of music. Nor does the study aspire to reflect the totality of musical culture in Marseille. Instead, the prism of urban change serves to centre the thesis on moments and processes through which music informs and performs the changing city. In addition to this interest in urban change, my decisions about which aspects and locations of musical culture to focus on were, of course, linked partly to my own subject position, and I address the implications of this in the methodology section. The thesis addresses three overarching research questions. To what extent has musical culture been restricted or marginalised in the context of urban redevelopment? How have musicians and audiences used music to narrate and negotiate the city in new ways? And finally, how are technological changes inflecting the ways in which musical culture inhabits the city? To address these questions I present four case studies. Chapter One investigates two controversies surrounding the musical programming of a major arts festival; Chapter Two examines a new initiative focused on the local circulation of post- war North African musical media; Chapter Three addresses Occitan-language music and its interface with the cosmopolitan city; and Chapter Four analyses the position of a neighbourhood’s DIY music scenes in relation to the advance of gentrification. Through these case studies, the thesis seeks to contribute to broader discussions about the relationship between music and the right to the city in late modernity. 1. Background: Imagining Marseille Why is Marseille a particularly significant place in which to examine the interrelationships between music and urban change, and why now? The second part of this question can be addressed first: following decades of industrial job losses, disinvestment and population shrinkage, the city has witnessed a dramatic wave of regeneration initiatives, underpinned most recently by its designation as a European Capital of Culture (ECOC) in 2013. Presented as a year-long programme of cultural events, the award was also linked, as in many previously designated cities, to new strategies for urban development and place branding. In Marseille, the image was advanced of a dynamic city steeped in centuries of diversity and exchange. But if Marseille is a testament to migratory flux, it has been a site of xenophobia and postcolonial tension as well as of tolerance and conviviality: in elections, an exceptionally high count is often recorded for the far-right Front National (FN) party.1 Meanwhile, investment in award-winning architecture and redevelopment accompanies the persistent deprivation of the city centre, where 42% of households are classified as being below the poverty line (INSEE 2017a). Contradictions such as these were highlighted and accentuated in discussions during and after the Capital of Culture year, in this way helping to define a period marked by important struggles surrounding the past, present and future of the city. To apprehend the significance of these contradictions, it is first important to introduce Marseille in more detail. It is worth emphasising at the outset that no single prism is adequate here: Marseille could be introduced as France’s “second city”, with a population of around 850,000. But this would say nothing of the many thousands more who journey from Algiers and Oran every week, to visit relatives or do business (Manry and Peraldi 2004). And it would be to obscure the question of spatial sprawl: Marseille’s central area is larger even than that of Paris,2 unfolding for two hundred square kilometres up the sides of a natural inlet in the Mediterranean coastline, and beyond as far as a ring of enclosing hills. In other words, and like any place, Marseille can and deserves to be approached in multiple ways. Doing so offers one means of avoiding an essentialised reading of the city, 1 Of the ten most populous cities in France, only Nice recorded a proportionally higher FN vote (25.3%) in the first round of the 2017 presidential elections than Marseille (23.6%) (Frémont 2017). The same pattern had materialised in the previous presidential elections in 2012. 2 The central area of Paris (the administrative space of the ‘commune’, governed by one municipal council) extends for 105km2 (INSEE 2017b) 7 its history reduced to a single, teleological narrative. At the same time, it helps us to conceptualise the city as something imagined as well as lived. In the period following the Capital of Culture, the sociologist Michel Peraldi (2015, 6) argued that the disembedded, imagined city was increasingly significant to Marseille’s future: “In this way, imaginary and symbolic issues or themes are at the heart of the urban economy, culture is now a productive force and

  • Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger a Dissertation Submitted
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Rhythms of Value: Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Eric James Schmidt 2018 © Copyright by Eric James Schmidt 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Rhythms of Value: Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger by Eric James Schmidt Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Timothy D. Taylor, Chair This dissertation examines how Tuareg people in Niger use music to reckon with their increasing but incomplete entanglement in global neoliberal capitalism. I argue that a variety of social actors—Tuareg musicians, fans, festival organizers, and government officials, as well as music producers from Europe and North America—have come to regard Tuareg music as a resource by which to realize economic, political, and other social ambitions. Such treatment of culture-as-resource is intimately linked to the global expansion of neoliberal capitalism, which has led individual and collective subjects around the world to take on a more entrepreneurial nature by exploiting representations of their identities for a variety of ends. While Tuareg collective identity has strongly been tied to an economy of pastoralism and caravan trade, the contemporary moment demands a reimagining of what it means to be, and to survive as, Tuareg. Since the 1970s, cycles of drought, entrenched poverty, and periodic conflicts have pushed more and more Tuaregs to pursue wage labor in cities across northwestern Africa or to work as trans- ii Saharan smugglers; meanwhile, tourism expanded from the 1980s into one of the region’s biggest industries by drawing on pastoralist skills while capitalizing on strategic essentialisms of Tuareg culture and identity.

In a career spanning almost 20 years, she has scored massive hits in countries such as Angola, Mozambique and Cape Verde, and has also managed to achieve frequent successes elsewhere. She has received numerous music awards and nominations. In 2015, Suzanna Lubrano has released her latest solo-album ´Vitoria´. Most of the songs on the album are self-composed. The album contains duets with Machel Montano (Trinidad), Iyanya (Nigeria) and Vinicius D´black (Brazil), several productions by Giorgio Tuinfort (producer of songs by Michael Jackson, Rihanna, Lady Gaga and many more), and is more diverse than previous albums. Although a Cape Verdean singer, Suzanna’s music can’t be described as specifically Cape Verdean. With her exciting mix of Zouk or Kizomba, Pop Coladeira, R&B and other African and Latino music styles, the 39 year old gifted vocalist has retained her star status in the Portuguese speaking African countries throughout her career, which started in 1996 with the release of her debut album ´Sem Bo Nes Mund´.

Shabaka was born in the UK, raised mostly in Barbados. He studied classical music in college— not jazz. And that’s interesting but again, it’s not the reason you should listen to his music.
