Drawing on long-term ethnographic research alongside Pacific Islander and neo-phenomenological conceptual frameworks, Music Worlding distinguishes between meaning(s) and meaningfulness in Palauan music-making. These are not binary phenomena, but deeply intertwined. However, unlike meaning, meaningfulness to a significant extent suspends language and is thus often prematurely considered ineffable. The book proposes a broader understanding of how the performing arts give rise to a sense of meaningfulness whose felt-bodily affectivity is pivotal to music-making and lived realities. Music Worlding thus seeks to draw the reader closer to the holistic complexity of music-making both in Palau and more generally. 410 0$aGlobal Asia (Amsterdam, Netherlands) 606 $aMusic$zPalau$xHistory 606 $aPerforming arts$zPalau 615 0$aMusic$xHistory. 615 0$aPerforming arts 676 $a780.9966 700 $aAbels$b Birgit$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01228649 702 $aAbels$b Birgit$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910558696803321 996 $aMusic Worlding in Palau$92852438 997 $aUNINA
