A Polylogue on Reproduction in Music

In this roundtable, Jasmijn Blom, Yahaira Brito Morfe, Kim Dankoor, Darek Mercks and Peter Peskens discuss approaches to and perspectives on reproduction in music from their various disciplines. In this engaging Polylogue, Imogen Mills (editor of the Polylogue) and Lola Abbas (editorial support) invited the speakers to reflect on a broad range of themes: from the practical implications of reproducing music; to the reproduction of societal values through music; and the significance of social media and musical reproduction. Together, they examine the historic and contemporary role of reproduction in music and the rapid changes behind music and cultural industries.
