Collaborative Intimacies in Music and Dance: Anthropologies of Sound and 
Movement

Edited by Evangelos Chrysagis and Panas Karampampas



http://www.berghahnbooks.com/title/ChrysagisCollaborative



Across spatial, bodily, and ethical domains, music and dance both emerge 
from and give rise to intimate collaboration. This theoretically rich 
collection takes an ethnographic approach to understanding the 
collective dimension of sound and movement in everyday life, drawing on 
genres and practices in contexts as diverse as Japanese shakuhachi 
playing, Peruvian huayno, and the Greek goth scene. Highlighting the 
sheer physicality of the ethnographic encounter, as well as the forms of 
sociality that gradually emerge between self and other, each 
contribution demonstrates how dance and music open up pathways and give 
shape to life trajectories that are neither predetermined nor 
teleological, but generative.
