  • Applied Experiments in Collaboration Along the Silk Road
    This is the version of the article accepted for publication in The World of Music published by VWB: http://www.journaltheworldofmusic.com/planned.html#Sharing Accepted version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/26018 Applied experiments in collaboration along the Silk Road Rachel Harris (SOAS, University of London) Abstract This paper considers the nature of work done in performances that seek to “create bridges” across cultures and to highlight shared heritage across political borders. What agendas are privileged, and what forms of representation are entailed? I explore these issues via case studies in musical collaboration along the “Silk Road”, the ancient trade routes brought to life in the contemporary imagination to link cultures from Europe to East Asia. I privilege the perspectives of the various actors involved, arguing that careful attention to the experiences of participants serve to texture our understanding of cultural border-crossings. Music-making, as a form of embodied practice, may serve as a way of deconstructing conventional narratives but it may also serve to uphold established hierarchies. I argue that in cross-border encounters musicians draw on diverse imaginaries – learned aesthetic norms, bodily habitus and imaginative resources – casting their collaborators as musical and social others in their efforts to make sense of what they hear. Bio Rachel Harris teaches ethnomusicology at SOAS, University of London, and is series co- editor of the SOAS Musicology Series. She is the author of Singing the Village, Making a Musical Canon in Central Asia, and co-editor of Gender in Chinese Music, and Pieces of the Musical World.

    121 VOL. 2, NO. 1, JUNE 2017: 121-143 BOOK REVIEWS The Music of Central Asia. Theodore Levin, Saida Daukeyeva, and Elmira Köchümkulova, eds. Indiana University Press. 2016. 703 pp. (ISBN-13: 9780253017512) How central is the music of Central Asia? Before discussing the music of Central Asia, we need to raise an epistemological question: whose perspective makes it cen- tral? Reaching almost 700 pages and trying to be politically neutral, The Music of Central Asia first debates the history of the name and the geographical control practiced by Russia, China and Great Britain, reminding the reader of colonial studies. The colo- nizers, especially the Russians during the 19th century, tried to homogenize the region. Central Asia embraces overlapping identities: 90% of the inhabitants associate them- selves with Turkic and 10% with Iranian ethnicity. The collaborations of three editors and twenty four contributors with different ethnic, religious and cultural backgrounds help The Music of Central Asia to celebrate and discuss the diversity of Central Asian culture, which is an amalgamation of Iranian, Turkic and Mongolian traditions. The book is divided into four parts: “the Music and Culture of Central Asia”, “The No- madic World”, “The World of Sedentary Dwellers”, and “Central Asian Music in the Age of Globalization”. The musical productions of nomads and sedentary inhabit- ants are meticulously explained in 27 chapters. The remaining 5 chapters elaborate on the effect of globalization. The fifteen chapters of “The Nomadic World” are centered on epic, a popular narrative genre, with a complex plot that highlights the nomadic tradition of Cen- tral Asia.

  • Musical Geographies of Central Asia
    Musical Geographies of Central Asia Conference and Concert 16-18 May 2012, London Report by Dr Megan Rancier (Bowling Green State University) The “Musical Geographies of Central Asia” Conference was held May 16-18, 2012 at the Institute of Musical Research (IMR) of the School of Advanced Study at the University of London and was co-organised by IMR and the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) in collaboration with the Aga Khan Music Initiative, a programme of the Aga Khan Trust for Culture. The conference was an unprecedented event that brought together thirty delegates, who travelled to London from Azerbaijan, China, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Kazakhstan, New Zealand, Russia, Scotland, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and the United States. The conference was attended additionally by University of London faculty and students. Given Central Asia’s famous association with the Silk Road and its monumental contributions to intercultural dialogue throughout history, the international nature of the “Musical Geographies” conference was absolutely fitting. The three-day conference offered a wealth of perspectives on themes and issues that pertain to the musical practices of Central Asia, ranging geographically from the post-Soviet republic of Azerbaijan to the Uyghur Autonomous Region of Western China (Xinjiang). Many of these territories and their respective societies share musical elements such as instruments, terminology, theoretical principles, melodic modes, repertoires, and performance contexts; however, the ways in which these musical elements are utilized and interpreted are often as diverse as the people who inhabit this vast region. Similarly, the cultural and political realities in which musicians pursue their arts are highly variable throughout the region; what is celebrated and promoted by one nation-state may be suppressed or tightly controlled in another.
