Wong explores taiko as a music/dance art form that creates spaces in which memories of the WW2 Japanese American incarceration, Asian American identity, and a desire to be seen/heard intersect with global capitalism, the complications of mediation, and legacies of imperialism. Based on two decades of participatory ethnographic work, the book offers a vivid glimpse of an Asian American presence both loud and fragile.MusicbisacshSocial SciencebisacshSocial sciencesMusicSocial ScienceSocial sciences.786.9089/956073Wong Deborah921005ScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910976786303321Louder and Faster2065723UNINA
