Sabine Trebinjac explains the meaning of what is called “Chinese Music.â€
It encompasses all ethnic music present in China for which the Chinese State has implemented a procedure of control and traditionalization. This process is discussed in detail through the example of Uyghur music with Turkish origins. The researcher then introduces us to the singularities of Uyghur music while particularly focusing on the Muqam genre.
To paint a better picture of what Uyghur music is, Sabine Trebinjac lets us listen to two pieces of Muqam Uyghur from her disk called “Chinese Turkestan/Xinjiang†recorded with the help of Jean During and produced by Radio France OCORA in 1990.
The music excerpts available on the site are accompanied by snapshots of Xinjiang taken by Sabine Trebinjac.
