520 Sonic ethnography reveals how sound plays a central role
in the performance of local identities in the southern
Italian region of Basilicata. By exploring the soundscape
of tree rituals, carnivals, pilgrimages, informal musical
performances, and sound archives, the book focuses on the
relational and experiential aspects of sound that
momentarily bring together acoustic communities. It
provides an innovative take on an area that has been
studied by Italian and foreign scholars starting from the
1950s, in which these classic studies have become one of
the forces at play in the local politics of heritage.
Through a combination of text, colour photographs and
sound recordings, Sonic ethnography makes a compelling
argument for taking sound seriously as a crucial component
of social life and as an ethnographic form of
representation. With an afterword and a soundscape
