Music, Politics and Identity

We are interested in the ways in which music has contributed to local, national and international political change, and shaped individual identities. 

What we cover

  • music in politics, diplomacy and conflict
  • gender, race, class and intersectionality
  • global cultures of popular song
  • women, technology, embodiment
  • the performance of identity, 17th c. to present
  • identities in composition and performance
