Musical Intimacies and Indigenous Imaginaries: Aboriginal Music and Dance in Public Performance
Dueck, Byron (Lecturer in Music, Lecturer in Music, The Open University, Milton Keynes, UK)
This book explores several musical styles performed in the vital aboriginal musical scene that has emerged in the western Canadian province of Manitoba. Focusing on fiddling, country music, and Christian hymnody, as well as step dancing and the pow-wow, author Byron Dueck advances a groundbreaking new performative theory of music culture that acknowledges tradition without losing sight of the dynamic negotiations that bring it into being.
