{"title":"Between Exoticism and Ethnomusicology: Musical Representations of Greenland and India on European Interwar Radio","authors":"Morten Michelsen","doi":"10.1080/19376529.2021.2019744","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/19376529.2021.2019744","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT In this article, I investigate how colonized cultures were presented to “home” radio audiences through sound (music, speech, sound montages) during the inter-war years. The focus is on how a small group of broadcasts containing musical representations of the colonies of Greenland and India afforded the imaginative work and temporary imagined communities to Austrian, Danish, and British radio listeners in relation to the spatiality and otherness of distant peoples and locations. I suggest a typology of four modes of musical representation in broadcasts reaching from the European tradition of musical exoticism to the use of recordings of indigenous music. Biography: Morten Michelsen is a popular music scholar and professor of musicology at Aarhus University. His research interests include popular music and mediation, music radio and sound studies, historical radio studies, questions of taste and music criticism, and popular music historiography. 2013–2018 he led the research project A Century of Radio and Music In Denmark ( www.Ramund.ikk.ku.dk) and contributed to other large research projects concerned with radio.

Harold Innis’s (1950) pioneering work offers a broad view on the phenomenon, through a comprehensive analysis that extends from stone and papyrus to the printing press. However, when considering the empires of the 20 century, no other communication technology was more influential than broadcasting, which was used to promote and to fight colonialism and different political ideologies. The center stage assumed by radio in the interwar period led European imperial nations to be among the first group of countries to invest in overseas broadcasting, aiming to unite the home countries with those living in the far reaches of the empires. The audio medium was then perceived as a powerful tool for creating “a sense of national heritage and history” (Hilmes, 2002, p. 10) within national borders but also overseas in territories under European domain mostly in Africa, Asia and the West Indies, where a community of white expats were believed to be eagerly expecting to be kept in contact with the home countries. Imperial broadcasting was, from its inception, a problematic operation for many reasons, starting with the stations’ lack of knowledge about those who were actually tuning in to the transmissions. This led the stations to depend on the feedback from listeners living overseas and who, in the Dutch, British and Portuguese cases, wrote to the broadcasters from the early days of the transmissions (Kuitenbrouwer, 2016; Potter, 2021; Ribeiro, 2014). While ceremonial events were prioritized for their potential of creating a sentimental bond among expatriates in the colonies, light entertainment, news and informative talks also made up a significant portion of the programming schedules. One of the characteristics shared by imperial broadcasters until the end of the Second World War was their lack of interest and/or capacity to reach the majority of the colonial population who did not speak European languages. In many territories under European domain, namely in Africa, language fragmentation was the norm, which made it difficult and expensive to reach non-Europeans.

Following an assessment of media penetration and uptake, and a contrastive review of four Brazilian radio stations that have either substantial Indigenous content or a dedicated focus on Indigenous issues, the article concludes with an assessment of the outlook and challenges for programming in this sector.","PeriodicalId":44611,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Radio & Audio Media","volume":"30 1","pages":"51 - 75"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43148286","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
