Book Description

About the Book The Santals comprise the single largest tribal community in India. Though spread across the eastern states-Jharkhand, West Bengal, Odisha, Bihar and beyond - they yet form a distinct geography and culture.

The Santals are best known outside their community for their rich and distinct seren-enec or song-dance traditions. There is an intimate relationship between music, dance, musical instruments, language and performance within a particular setting and socialization. The book documents these musical traditions and their expression in a changing landscape.

About the Book This book is an outcome of a collaborative project between the Museum Rietberg, Zurich and the Crafts Museum, New Delhi, to document tangible and intangible heritage.

The editorial team of the book comprises Johannes Beltz, Museum Rietberg, Zurich Marie-Eve Celio-Scheurer, Museum Rietberg, Zurich Ruchira Ghose, Crafts Museum, New Delhi
