From the 1920s to the<br \/>\n1970s, Hugh Tracey, his son, Andrew, and numerous \u201cothers\u201d recorded more than fourteen thousand songs from fifteen countries in sub-Saharan Africa. ILAM covers a wide range of African musical styles \u2013 ranging from South Africa to Sudan. Since 2011, the author has conducted repatriation and revitalization projects of ILAM\u2019s recordings in eight countries (Zimbabwe, Malawi, Zambia, Mozambique, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya and South Africa) and resulting in multiple publications (peer review articles, albums, podcasts and documentaries) including his book \u2018Tracing the mbira sound archive in Zimbabwe\u2019 published by Routledge in 2018. This presentation examines the digital return of ILAM\u00b4s sound archive through the author, scholars, museums and musicians in Africa. Particularly, this type of revitalization project examines the scholarly and collaborative outcomes from the interaction between ILAM (as a hub for African music studies) and the mentioned agents during revitalization projects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1258,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"ciea":[87],"class_list":["post-6361","comunicacion","type-comunicacion","status-publish","hentry","ciea-ciea12"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/redestudiosafricanos.org\/pt-pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comunicacion\/6361","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/redestudiosafricanos.org\/pt-pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comunicacion"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/redestudiosafricanos.org\/pt-pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/comunicacion"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redestudiosafricanos.org\/pt-pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1258"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/redestudiosafricanos.org\/pt-pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comunicacion\/6361\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6362,"href":"https:\/\/redestudiosafricanos.org\/pt-pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comunicacion\/6361\/revisions\/6362"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/redestudiosafricanos.org\/pt-pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6361"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ciea","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redestudiosafricanos.org\/pt-pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ciea?post=6361"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
