Everyday Musical Life among the Indigenous Bunun, Taiwan
contributes to multidisciplinary research on music in everyday
human life by pushing beyond the urbanized Western populations
routinely featured in such writing. Based on ethnographic study in
Buklavu, a village in southern Taiwan mostly inhabited by the
indigenous Bunun, the book explores villagers’ contemporaneous
musical engagements and pathways, paying heed both to imported
music—such as TV theme tunes, karaoke singing, church hymns—and
to the transformation of Bunun traditions through school and
community interventions and folkloric festivals. The case study
underpins a new, widely applicable, theoretical model for the study
of music in everyday life in global society which is historically
engaged, sensitive to individual and group diversity, cognizant of
the interplay of the mundane and the exceptional, and primed to
support applied research.
