Diasporic Soundscapes: The Urgency of Intangible Cultural Heritage
Sound & Culture Summit
This conversation—facilitated by curator Raziyah Heath—explores the role of diasporas in preserving, shaping and promoting traditional music and other forms of intangible heritage across different countries and cultural contexts. What kinds of conversations take place between people in the diaspora and their motherland? Who carries on the culture, who receives recognition and who is compensated or rewarded for it?
What is the role of diaspora in pushing traditional musics forward, what are the conversations being had between diaspora folx and their motherland? Raziyah Heath facilitates the conversation with Tabanka Records co-founder Henrique Silva and DJ Galecta.
Facilitator: Raziyah Heath
Speakers: Henrique Silva, Galecta
