Sounding Roman: Representation and Performing Identity in Western Turkey
Seeman, Sonia Tamar (Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology, Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology, University of Texas, Austin)
Sounding Roman narrates the vibrant use of music to challenge long-term marginalization of Turkish Roman ("Gypsies"). Descriptions of weddings, recording studios, rehearsals and concerts enable readers to witness the emergence of new social identities and political responses as Roman musicians bring new musical forms and styles into local and world music markets.
