ABSTRACTAt the end of the Spanish Civil War, the Fascist Government led by General Franco implemented a regime of extensive suppression over the population. As a result, prisons became overcrowded with thousands of political opponents. From 1938—a year before the end of the armed conflict—to 1943, musical practices were considered a crucial component of the propaganda programmes implemented in prisons to control and re-educate the inmates. In response to this official sonic environment, prisoners also cultivated their own musical practices as a means of preserving their self-identities. The initial section of the article offers a brief overview of the living conditions experienced in Spanish prisons during Franco’s regime. In the subsequent part, I delve into the significance of the unofficial musical practices developed by detainees, examining their relationship to concepts such as space, place, heterotopia, and the ‘construction of the self’. Due to the state’s ability to exert epistemic violence by suppressing individuals and groups’ capacity to speak or be heard, these unofficial musical practices can be regarded as cultural artefacts that emerged as a means of resistance against the propaganda enforced by the Franco government.KEYWORDS: Francoismpolitical prisonersprisonssonic environmentheterotopiaidentity AcknowledgementsI would like to express my very great appreciation to Gemma Pérez Zalduondo as my main thesis supervisor, whose expertise and advice in the area has been very valuable to me.

【摘要】西班牙内战结束后,以佛朗哥将军为首的法西斯政府对民众实行了广泛的镇压。结果,监狱里挤满了成千上万的政治反对派。从1938年(武装冲突结束前一年)到1943年,音乐实践被认为是监狱宣传计划的重要组成部分,目的是控制和再教育囚犯。为了回应这种官方的声音环境,囚犯们也培养了自己的音乐实践,作为保持自我身份的一种手段。文章的开头部分简要概述了佛朗哥统治时期西班牙监狱的生活条件。在接下来的部分中,我深入研究了被拘留者发展的非官方音乐实践的意义,研究了他们与空间、地点、异托邦和“自我构建”等概念的关系。由于国家有能力通过压制个人和团体说话或被倾听的能力来施加认知暴力,这些非官方的音乐实践可以被视为文化文物,作为抵抗佛朗哥政府强制宣传的一种手段。我非常感谢杰玛·帕萨雷兹·扎尔多作为我的主要论文导师,她在这方面的专业知识和建议对我来说非常宝贵。在伦敦大学皇家霍洛威学院音乐系学习期间,Erik Levi教授和Julie Brown教授给我的建议对我在英文期刊上发表论文有很大的帮助。我要感谢我的英国同事在翻译这篇文章时所提供的帮助。我要感谢以下机构协助收集我的数据:西班牙国家图书馆、西班牙监狱总方向图书馆和档案馆、西班牙共产党档案馆、英国国家图书馆、英国国家档案馆、马克思纪念博物馆和工人图书馆以及曼彻斯特人民历史博物馆。我要特别感谢受访者与我分享他们的经历:马科斯·安娜、约瑟·阿金乔·贝尔萨、特蕾莎·贝尔萨Martínez、路易斯·帕姆雷斯·劳拉、约瑟·埃斯皮诺萨和爱德华多Rincón。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。数据可用性声明支持本研究结果的数据可应作者要求提供。这些数据没有公开,因为它们包含的信息可能会损害研究参与者的隐私。注1所有来自西班牙语的翻译都是我的与佛朗哥统治时期西班牙政治镇压相关的数据是一个关键点,因为西班牙政府从未发布过任何官方信息,所以最新的信息来自于20世纪80年代以来不同的研究人员。例如,休·托马斯估计在内战期间有10万人被弗朗哥主义者杀害(Citation1961: 209-71)。另一位历史学家迈克尔·理查兹认为,如果把在战争中被杀害的人和死于监狱的人计算在内,死亡人数将增加到40万人(1998:11)。根据Guy Hermet的说法,其中19.2万是根据戒严法处决的囚犯(Citation1984: 10)。另一方面,联合国强迫或非自愿失踪问题工作组的报告(Citation2014)给出了被独裁政权绑架的人数为114,000人。其中3万人是母亲入狱的孩子,是在母亲入狱期间被带走的。本研究得到了西班牙科学创新部(Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación) [FJC2021-046775-I]、欧盟下一代和西班牙国家调查局(Agencia Estatal de Investigación) Juan de la Cierva博士后奖学金计划的支持。elsa Calero-Carramolino是马德里大学Autónoma的音乐学家(2014年),并持有安达卢西亚国际大学的MRes音乐遗产(2015年)。2021年10月,她为自己的博士论文辩护,获得了国际提及的优等生资格。她目前是巴塞罗那大学Autónoma音乐与艺术系的博士后,在那里她正在开展关于音乐在死刑审判中的存在的研究。她的研究兴趣是在佛朗哥统治下的西班牙(1938-1978)强制拘留过程中,音乐作为惩罚、镇压、折磨和颠覆的工具。

The poesia in ottava rima (‘poetry in octave rhyme’) is a living tradition of improvised-sung poetry widespread in the rural areas of Central Italy. In this article, I describe and interpret the interaction that takes place between two poet-performers and between poet-performers and the audience, highlighting the importance of embodiment and gesture during the poetic duel and the active role of listeners. This paper aims to highlight the strong binding of speech and gesture and the bodily expressiveness of the onstage improvised sung poetic duel, analysing the contrasto as a ‘vocal-gestural performance’. The ultimate aim of this study is to examine the ways in which visual information in the form of gestures contributes to the way musical performance is experienced. Furthermore, we apply insights from ethnomusicology and gesture studies, together with digital video and audio recording and associated analysis software, to the study of contrasto performance.
“八度韵诗”(poesia in ottava rima)是一种流行于意大利中部农村地区的即兴歌唱诗歌。在这篇文章中,我描述和解释了发生在两位诗人表演者之间以及诗人表演者与观众之间的互动,强调了在诗歌决斗中体现和姿态的重要性以及听众的积极作用。本文旨在突出舞台即兴歌唱诗歌决斗中语言和手势的强烈结合以及身体的表现力,并将其作为一种“声音-手势表演”进行对比分析。这项研究的最终目的是研究手势形式的视觉信息对音乐表演的体验方式的影响。此外,我们将民族音乐学和手势研究的见解与数字视频和音频记录以及相关的分析软件一起应用于对比表演的研究。

ABSTRACTThis article explores the nexus between self-making and genre-making in African popular music through the lens of Fújì music, an urban Yoruba popular music from Nigeria. The story of social agents in postcolonial African popular music is at the heart of this genre-making process. Drawing from interviews, archives, and participant observations, I explore the development of Fújì through the agency of Sikiru Ayinde Barrister, the acclaimed pioneer of the genre. Through his continuous search for ‘newness’, Ayinde Barrister launched Fújì as a prestige genre, a type of modernity from below, within the 1970s Lagos social and economic scenes. Ultimately, the interlocking story of Ayinde Barrister and Fújì provides insights into how genre-making in African popular music intertwines processes of self-making in postcolonial Africa.KEYWORDS: Sikiru Ayinde BarristerFújì musicYoruba popular musicpostcolonial African agencyAfrican popular musicgenre-makingself-making AcknowledgmentsThanks to the two anonymous reviewers and the editors for their comments and suggestions to the early draft of this article.

ABSTRACTSince the 1990s, the world has seen an incredible surge of Chinese performers in Western classical music. Unknown to most outside of Chinese musical networks, these musicians often began their training as young children, learning from parents who lost musical ambitions during the Cultural Revolution and who hoped to realise them through their only child. However, as children rapidly developed musical skills and entered conservatories, other career paths became eliminated. Drawing from anthropologist Aihwa Ong’s work on ‘flexible citizenship’ and ethnographic fieldwork in Mainland China, Canada, and the United States, I theorise the ‘strategic citizenship’ of these students and their families. I do so to argue that the strong presence of Chinese instrumentalists in Western classical music has resulted from a desire, even a desperation, amongst many families to negotiate intergenerational traumas and acquire socio-economic stability in the neoliberal age. In this process, transnational Chinese musicians must also contend with issues of precarity and Orientalisms abroad.KEYWORDS: Chinese musiciansone-child policycitizenshiptransnationalismprecarityOrientalism AcknowledgementsThe author thanks Chi-ming Yang, Jim Sykes, Timothy Rommen, Lei X. Ouyang, members of the Dissertation Workshop at the University of Pennsylvania’s Department of Music, members of the Wolf Humanities Center Mellon Research Seminar, fellow panellists and audience participants of the Society for Ethnomusicology’s Annual Conference in 2020, and the anonymous reviewers for their invaluable feedback. This research would not have been possible without the generosity of the author’s interlocutors, who have been anonymized.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Pseudonyms are used for interlocutors in order to protect their privacy.2 I capitalise Mainland China as a proper noun because it signifies a politico-geography with its own identity. Although part of Hong Kong is technically on the mainland, it is not part of what various Chinese and East-Asian peoples call ‘Mainland China’, or guonei 国内. At times, ‘China’ is even omitted as ‘the Mainland’ is a clear signifier in itself. As this article is grounded in ethnography, I acknowledge the colloquial uses of ‘Mainland’ and employ it with the socio-political indexes it carries.3 I use ‘Western art music’ instead of ‘Western classical music’ for purposes of clarity, as the latter may be easily confused with Classical music, the stylistic period (c. 1750–1825). Art music also implies a greater creative range than classical music.4 Many Chinese musicians also pursue post-secondary music studies in Europe.

自20世纪90年代以来,世界上出现了令人难以置信的中国演奏家在西方古典音乐领域的崛起。中国音乐网络之外的大多数人都不知道,这些音乐家通常从小就开始接受训练,他们的父母在文化大革命期间失去了音乐抱负,他们希望通过自己的独生子女实现这些梦想。然而,随着孩子们迅速发展音乐技能并进入音乐学院,其他职业道路就被淘汰了。根据人类学家王爱华(Aihwa Ong)在中国大陆、加拿大和美国的“灵活公民身份”和民族志田野调查的工作,我将这些学生及其家庭的“战略公民身份”理论化。我这样做是为了证明,中国乐器演奏家在西方古典音乐中的强大存在,源于许多家庭在新自由主义时代对代际创伤和获得社会经济稳定的渴望,甚至是绝望。在这一过程中,跨国中国音乐家还必须应对海外的不稳定性和东方主义问题。关键词:作者感谢杨志明、吉姆·赛克斯、蒂莫西·罗姆曼、欧阳磊、宾夕法尼亚大学音乐系论文工作坊成员、沃尔夫人文中心梅隆研究研讨会成员、2020年民族音乐学学会年会的小组成员和听众参与者,以及匿名审稿人提供的宝贵反馈。如果没有作者匿名对话者的慷慨解囊,这项研究是不可能完成的。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。注1:为了保护对话者的隐私,对话者使用假名我把中国大陆大写作为专有名词,因为它代表着一种具有自身特征的政治地理。虽然香港的一部分在技术上属于大陆,但它并不属于许多中国人和东亚人所说的“中国大陆”。有时,“中国”甚至被省略,因为“大陆”本身就是一个明确的象征。由于本文以民族志为基础,我承认“大陆”一词的口语化用法,并将其与社会政治指标结合使用为了清楚起见,我使用“西方艺术音乐”而不是“西方古典音乐”,因为后者很容易与风格时期(约1750-1825)的古典音乐混淆。艺术音乐也意味着比古典音乐有更大的创作范围许多中国音乐家也在欧洲进行高等音乐学习。5我对新自由主义的思考深受王爱华的《作为例外的新自由主义:公民与主权的突变》(2006)、伊丽莎白·波维内利的《抛弃经济:晚期自由主义的社会归属与忍耐》(2011)、青安娜的《摩擦:全球联系的民族志》(2004)和《世界尽头的菌》的影响。论资本主义废墟中生命的可能性(2015)。这些开创性的文本都结合了社会经济分析和严格的民族志,以调查晚期自由主义对人类和非人类生命形式的影响我所说的“毛时代”是指1949年至1978年这段时间,当时中国过渡到后社会主义时代我在这里提到大英帝国是因为他们在北美的移民殖民计划,加拿大和美国政府今天还在继续。我对跨太平洋问题的思考受到了一些开创性作品的影响,其中包括Azuma Eiichiro (Citation2005)、Iyko Day (Citation2016)、Yen Le Espiritu (Citation2003)、Candace Fujikane和Jonathan Okamura (Citation2008)以及shishumei (Citation2007)欲了解更多关于契约劳工、黄祸和制度排斥的内容,请参见Madeleine Hsu (Citation2015)、Lisa Lowe (Citation1996)和Mae Ngai (Citation2004)在爱德华·赛义德开创性著作《东方主义》(Citation1978)的基础上,以及肯尼斯·彭慕兰(Kenneth Pomeranz) (Citation2000)、安德烈·甘德·弗兰克(Andre Gunder Frank) (Citation1998)、黄斌(R.

{"title":"Across the Pacific: the strategic citizenship of Chinese musicians","authors":"Shelley Zhang","doi":"10.1080/17411912.2023.2230498","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/17411912.2023.2230498","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTSince the 1990s, the world has seen an incredible surge of Chinese performers in Western classical music. Unknown to most outside of Chinese musical networks, these musicians often began their training as young children, learning from parents who lost musical ambitions during the Cultural Revolution and who hoped to realise them through their only child. However, as children rapidly developed musical skills and entered conservatories, other career paths became eliminated. Drawing from anthropologist Aihwa Ong’s work on ‘flexible citizenship’ and ethnographic fieldwork in Mainland China, Canada, and the United States, I theorise the ‘strategic citizenship’ of these students and their families. I do so to argue that the strong presence of Chinese instrumentalists in Western classical music has resulted from a desire, even a desperation, amongst many families to negotiate intergenerational traumas and acquire socio-economic stability in the neoliberal age. In this process, transnational Chinese musicians must also contend with issues of precarity and Orientalisms abroad.KEYWORDS: Chinese musiciansone-child policycitizenshiptransnationalismprecarityOrientalism AcknowledgementsThe author thanks Chi-ming Yang, Jim Sykes, Timothy Rommen, Lei X.

Although part of Hong Kong is technically on the mainland, it is not part of what various Chinese and East-Asian peoples call ‘Mainland China’, or guonei 国内. At times, ‘China’ is even omitted as ‘the Mainland’ is a clear signifier in itself. As this article is grounded in ethnography, I acknowledge the colloquial uses of ‘Mainland’ and employ it with the socio-political indexes it carries.3 I use ‘Western art music’ instead of ‘Western classical music’ for purposes of clarity, as the latter may be easily confused with Classical music, the stylistic period (c. 1750–1825). Art music also implies a greater creative range than classical music.4 Many Chinese musicians also pursue post-secondary music studies in Europe.
