Music from behind the Bridge: Steelband Spirit 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 from the point of view of musicians who overcame the disadvantages of poverty and prejudice with their extraordinary ambition. Literally referring to the poor neighborhoods nestled in the hills bordering Port of Spain to the East, "Behind the Bridge" is also a metaphor for conditions of social disadvantage and cultural resistance that shaped the steelband movement in the various Afro-Trinidadiancommunities where it first took root.
