Disability and Musicking

This book reworks social resources and social movements perceived in disability studies, offering approaches that thread diverse disabled musicking, marking the innovative social, physical and temporal relationships music is produced, transmitted, used, and judged.

Musicking, Resistances and Disabilities sets to rework the social resources and social movements perceived in disability studies by challenging approaches wherein music is detached from the social relationships in which it is produced, transmitted, used, and judged. The authors contribute compelling insights of disabled musicking, balancing experience of time, engagement and experiential encounters with personal creativity, and temporal existence. Adopting a new turn in critical disability studies, this book asserts democratic, equitable, inclusive, accessible, emancipatory, and innovative practices in disabled musicking, and the creative and innovative experimentation in musicmaking practices that highlight a new sociocultural and performative paradigm for disabled musicking worldwide.
