I am delighted to announce that the latest IASA Research Grant has been awarded to Christian Poske of the School of Oriental & African Studies (SOAS) at the University of London. His research project concerns cylinder recordings made by anthropologist John Henry Hutton (1885-1968) in Nagaland in India between 1914-16. The recordings, made in different locations in the Assam province, include ritual songs, work songs, and other pieces performed by five ethnic groups on Nagaland. This includes the Chang, Sangtam, Sumi (Sema), Angami, and Lhota peoples.
