- W2257663028 abstract "Although the xylophone, or balafon, can be found in various parts of Central, East, and Southeast Africa, Heather Maxwell's essay focuses on the use of the instrument among Mande and Voltaic peoples who live in the savanna regions of West Africa. Her essay includes discussion of the history, distribution, terminology, and tunings of the xylophone, but her primary focus is on how individuals interact with the instrument: people use them, appreciate them, and create them. For Maxwell, 'learning about xylophone music culture provides a window into the diverse complexity of West African societies and worldviews. Not only does Maxwell draw on the personal narratives of musicians to discuss tuning, classification, and performance aesthetics, she uses their voices to explain how the instrument speaks (communicates) with the spiritual and human world at performance events." @default.
