Indigenous Audibilities: Music, Heritage, and Collections in the Americas

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the social relations behind Indigenous music collections, the book explores four case studies across the U.S., Mexico, Nicaragua, and Chile. Amanda Minks combines storytelling with theories of collection and recording to critique how archives are perceived as transparent historical sources. By employing a social-historical listening method, she encourages readers to engage with archived texts in new ways, revealing overlooked genealogies in cultural music research throughout the Americas.
