註釋"The Oxford Handbook of Music in China and the Chinese Diaspora comprises twenty-four chapters that collectively provide an innovative vision for Chinese music studies in the twenty-first century. Each chapter advances new research insights into a key musical genre or context in Chinese music, and each develops a theoretical model that is applicable beyond the case study in question. The volume includes significant input from researchers based in China, Taiwan, and across the Chinese diaspora, thus exemplifying a model of collaborative inquiry that prominently features diverse insider voices alongside contributions from authors variously positioned in the anglophone world. The book has three parts. In Part One, chapters explore the extensive, remarkable, and polyvocal historical legacies of Chinese music, ranging from archaeological findings to the ways we write music history, and from the interpretation and reinterpretation of enduring historical practices to the close study of emerging breakpoints that mark the rise of new cultural expressions. Specific topics addressed include music archaeology in the Chinese context, ancient Chinese music theory, the adoption of "Barbarian" dances in Chinese antiquity, the structure of kunqu opera qupai, the long tradition of Shijing songs, disputes over the writing of Hong Kong's music history, and key turning points in the rise of Chinese musical modernity. Part Two focuses on evolving practice across a spectrum of key instrumental and vocal genres. Each chapter provides a portrait of musical change, tying musical transformations to the social dimensions underpinning it. After an account of heterophony in traditional instrumental ensembles and the creation of revised repertory for such ensembles since the rise of programs of intangible cultural heritage, chapters consider changes in the field of ethnic minority folksong to guqin zither performance, and from musical theatre in Taiwan to the Chinese orchestra and to the pipa lute in the Chinese diaspora. In Part Three, authors take up prominent intersectional issues in the broad field of Chinese music studies. Several chapters are concerned with popular music cultures, exploring race and sexuality, humanism, and political aspiration, and the professional/amateur spectrum. Another looks at the interplay of liveness and mediation in contemporary art music for Western instruments. Two further chapters consider the roles music plays in creating or challenging identities among ethnic minorities within China and among overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia. A final chapter systematizes the contemporary discipline of Chinese music studies as illustrated throughout the volume"--
