ABOUT
My research focuses on the development of musicology and ethnomusicology in both European colonial bodies and indigenous institutions in Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia, and the ways in which the study and performance of indigenous music both mapped onto and intervened upon dominant discourses of race, nation, and modernity in colonial North Africa.
