| Sumario: | For more than a century, urban North Africans have sought to protect and revive Andalusi music, a prestigious Arabic-language performance tradition said to originate in the 'lost paradise' of medieval Islamic Spain. Yet despite the Andalusi repertoire's enshrinement as the national classical music of postcolonial North Africa, its devotees continue to describe it as being in danger of disappearance. In 'The Lost Paradise', Jonathan Glasser explores the close connection between the paradox of patrimony and the questions of embodiment, genealogy, secrecy and social class. |
