A selection of texts from the April 2010 conference in Bordeaux, this
issue of Volume ! wishes to question our way of apprehending a popular
music field that we easily identify (blues, jazz, reggae, rap, etc.)
without being able to define it precisely. What is it that unites such
different types of music? Colour of skin? A geographical area? Certain
specific musical qualities? There's no obvious answer. 10 authors thus
tackle the subject to deconstruct the use of racial categories in
music, without however abandoning such terms, that have been shaping
our practices for centuries. Instead, they invite us to clearly
consider the complex links between race and music, to look at them in
a new light.
