How have the sounds of China crossed borders, shaped by cultural, political, and technological forces? This volume traces Chinese music’s journey from 19th-century diasporas—driven by trade, migration, and imperialism—to today’s hyper-connected digital age, spanning locales from Japan and Jamaica to Italy and San Francisco. It examines how sound constructs identities, contests colonial and national power, and redefines cultural belonging across global contexts.
