MUSIC APPRECIATION PROMOTION

Gesture, Voice, and Ethics in Hindustani Music
Presentation by Matt Rahaim, Assistant Professor of Music, Religious Studies, and Cultural Studies, University of Minnesota, USA.  His book Musicking Bodies (2012) focuses on the transmission of bodily disciplines in khayal lineages, and especially the gestural performance of melody   
 
This talk will first demonstrate a few cases of the inheritance of gestural dispositions in teaching lineages, and then propose a new way to think about the interwoven traditions of embodied melody, aesthetics, and ethics that link generations of teachers and students
