Abstract

A large part of instrumental music results from a series of physical gestures performed by a person (the musician) on an object (the musical instrument). However, in the field of ethnomusicology, these gestures have rarely been the subject of study, until recently. Such a scholarly lacuna may be the result of the privileging of musical sound over physical gesture. This article examines, through a study of the playing of a long-necked lute, how musical gestures can serve as a bridge between the musical and social aspects of instrumental music.
