Kirsty Gillespie - Steep Slopes

This book is a musical ethnography of the Duna people of Papua New Guinea.

The Duna have experienced extraordinary social change in recent history, their musical traditions have also radically changed during this time.

New forms of music have been introduced, while ancestral traditions have been altered or even abandoned.

Steep Slopes shows how, through musical creativity, Duna people maintain a connection with their past, and their identity, whilst embracing the challenges of the present.
