Sonic Mobilities
«
“Sonic Mobilities is elegantly written and informative. Kielman has produced a thorough and well-written analysis of the production of worlds through “cosmopolitan musicking” in Southern China. Kielman’s extensive experience, first as a musician and then later as an ethnographer, affords him a truly deep understanding of the issues that impact the musical lives of those he encounters and the rich theoretical potential gained through performance in every sense of the word.”

“Adam Kielman’s manuscript focuses on the life, condition, practice, experience, and culture created by music bands in Guangzhou. It is a valuable piece of original scholarship that fills in the gap of knowledge in this particular music epoch in China.”
» Anthony Fung, author of Global Capital, Local Culture: Transnational Media in China
"This book is a valuable contribution to the fields of popular music studies and cultural studies in China. It presents a hybridized and mosaic-like musical landscape from a locality that accommodates both national and transnational migrations. Leveraging the historical depths of Chinese music and culture, Kielman constructs multi-dimensional micro-narratives of several individual musicians’ biographies, their connections to their music, their identities and their approaches to communication with the audiences."
