Music from behind the Bridge: Steelband Aesthetics and Politics in Trinidad and Tobago
Dudley, Shannon (Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology, Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology, University of Washington)
Music from behind the Bridge tells the story of the steelband, a symbol of Trinidadian culture, from the point of view of musicians who overcame disadvantages of poverty and prejudice with their extraordinary ambition. In discussing the intersection of musical thinking, festivity, and politics, this book connects important questions about the history of the steelband to general questions about the relation between popular culture andnationalism.
