Описание
Muziki wa Injili (Gospel Music), one of the newer music genres in Tanzania, has grown rapidly in use and popularity in recent years. SOUNDS OF MUZIKI WA INJILI explores the ways in which performances of this music and practices surrounding its creation and use are related to various concepts of time and space. Through ethnographic accounts and musical analyses, and drawing from philosophy, postcolonial theory and cultural studies, the book examines various changes that have taken place in Muziki wa Injili in relation to the changing social context in Tanzania since the 1980s to 2005. It also discusses the role this music genre has played in shaping people’s experiences of events, identities and social relations in Dar es Salaam during this time.
