Description

This paper explores the vibrant dance and music scenes of urban Yunnan, providing insights into the multiplicity of musical expressions amongst Yunnanese youth--from rock and pop to hip-hop and dance. It discusses musical expression in Kunming, as well as in smaller cities and townships including Dali and Jinghong. Kunming is perhaps China's second rock-n-roll city after Being. The multiple meanings and associations of this musical expression are explored within the wider Chinese polity. In a changing China, music provides a site of creative negotiation where new identities can be forged. **********
