“The book chapters demonstrate rich ethnographic and disciplinary diversity.” • Social Anthropology“Collaborative Intimacies in Music and Dance is an innovative collection of sound and movement anthropologies. These interdisciplinary texts employ the timely and sharp lens of critical studies while engaging with post-colonial cultural studies. A vital, exemplary collection of ethnographic writing.” • Dena Davida, Université du Québec à Montréal“An absolutely fascinating collection.
