Fay Asian music in Britain (14) Asian music in Britain 05 Nov 03


Hello, another school project!!!

My new chosen subject is the Asian music scene in Britain (esp Bradford area).

I want to look at the content of traditional music in the pop music scene and what influences have come from where.

I am also interested in the nationalistic issues involved, ie affirming their heritage and traditions while being a part of another culture.

The new style which is neither the music of where they are 'from'(I appreciate most of the people I will be interviewing were born and raised in Britain) nor the music of the culture they are surrounded by.

A tricky topic, and I'm sure a difficult one to be completly PC about, though I am trying not to phrase things badly.

I hope you get what I'm on about and have some opinions/ideas for areas of study.

Thanks, Fay
