| description |
Lucy Durán is a Senior Lecturer in African music in
the Music Department of the School of Oriental and
African Studies, University of London. Her principal
field of research is Mande music, which she has been
researching since 1977. Her recent research project,
“Growing into Music” (http://www. growingintomusic.
co.uk/), uses the medium of film to document children
learning musical skills and knowledge in the oral traditions
of India, Azerbaijan, Mali, Cuba and Venezuela.
Duran has a long professional involvement with the
music industry, working as a music producer, journalist
and broadcaster. With two Grammy nominations,
she has produced over fifteen albums. Having devoted
much of her professional life to balancing her broadcasting,
recording and academic work, Duran argues
for the need to forge better links and understanding
between the creative industries and academia. |
