- W1551119987 abstract "Jonathan Stock’s book on huju, an operatic tradition in Shanghai, is the first extended study of this topic to be published in English. The strength of this monograph, however, extends beyond its focus on the musical and social history of huju in modern Shanghai, and Stock has produced a brilliant example of what a monograph in musicology should be: the focus is always on music, be it sound, text, people, performance, or context. With music at the centre, Stock takes his readers on different paths that radiate to different viewpoints, while constantly connecting them back to the music. Each viewpoint constitutes a chapter in the book. Collectively, the five chapters outline a history of huju in twentieth-century Shanghai to embrace broader theoretical and methodological enquiries. Chapter 1 traces the early development of huju by examining cross-genre relationships between existing musical traditions in East China up to the 1920s, nicely summarized in the two figures on pages 56-7. What I find particularly useful in this chapter is the way Stock distinguishes between ‘histories of musical products’ and ‘analyses of musical practices’ in the understanding of how one music genre relates to another, and suggests a revision in the way we think about such relationships in Chinese music (p. 39). To this end, he captures the complex dynamics between different music genres that have contributed to the development of huju beyond their musical interactions, including such factors as performance contexts, types of performers, teaching and learning processes, and funding sources. This chapter is a good example of Stock’s ability not only to introduce new music genres to his readers but also to write in such a way that readers can understand these genres through particular theoretical and methodological frameworks. For example, in describing the ballad genre, tanhuang, he examines shifts in music preferences based on a study of individual singers, thus foregrounding the importance of individual practice in the understanding of music cultures." @default.
