Language and music are connected in many
ways. As social and cultural practices, they have been intertwined in
multiple ways. Musical and linguistic practices are often intertwined to
express distinct and complex identities, attitudes, ideologies, social roles
and political views. Spaces characterized by migration, contact,
multilingualism, and colonial inequalities, are particularly interesting
for the study of the intersections between language and music.

This volume is the first book-length
account of contact languages and music. It offers a stimulating collection
of contributions on different territories, multiple musical genres and
topics, and various methodological approaches. The chapters address myriad
topics such as nationality, ethnicity, identity, gender, migration and
diaspora.
