Song King: Connecting People, Places, and Past in Contemporary China - Music and Performing Arts of Asia and the Pacific
Levi S. Gibbs
Examines the life and performances of “Folksong King of Western China” Wang Xiangrong (b. 1952) and explores how itinerant performers come to serve as representative symbols straddling different groups, connecting diverse audiences, and shifting between amorphous, place-based local, regional, and national identities.
