- Title
Music as social bonding: A cross-cultural perspective.
- Authors
Zou, Ivan Yifan; Wang, William S.-Y.
- Abstract
We extend Savage et al.'s music and social bonding hypothesis by examining it in the context of Chinese music. First, top-down functions such as music as political instrument should receive more attention. Second, solo performance can serve as important cues for social identity. Third, a right match between the tones in lyrics and music contributes also to social bonding.
