European colonial domination has played a profound role in shaping the identities and cultures of the colonizers as well as of the colonized. In this seminar students critically engage with the enduring effects of colonialism on today’s societies and musical cultures. The course explores how various music practices are influenced by and revolt against the power hierarchies constructed and maintained by colonialism. A main point of departure is working out ways of conceptualizing how racial categories are shaped in music and how they intersect with issues of gender, sexuality, ethnicity and disability.
