Thesis (Ph.D.)--Indiana University, 2017.

This dissertation explores the central role of human relationships in the creation and sustaining of the transnational Zimbabwean music community. Centered on the teaching and learning of Zimbabwean marimba, songs, dances, and a plucked metal idiophone called the mbira, this community exemplifies Etienne Wenger's model of a community of practice, that is, a community that is formed exclusively through a shared practice. The community is comprised of Zimbabwean and North American members, and much of its activity is set within residential Zimbabwean music camps and festivals in the US and Canada. Within these pedagogical and performance settings, some members form family-like bonds and share in what they describe as deeply bonding experiences of music making together. These experiences inspire and stimulate individuals toward deeper involvement in the community through practices such as individual financial support, hosting Zimbabwean visitors, and support of philanthropic organizations. Interpersonal connections, ignited through musical practice and further developed through these other shared practices and associated narratives and beliefs, become the means through which the community grows across national and cultural boundaries.
