mind tends to make and from the very beginning onwards have given me the feeling that you have complete faith in what I am doing. This gave me the courage to write this dissertation and sometimes lean towards trusting myself, peculiar jolts included. For being an inspiring combination of strength, warmth, and intellectual curiosity, I thank my second supervisor Prof.Dr. Regina Bendix. Your dedication to staying close to ethnographic material encouraged me to keep an intimate relationship with my data. Your openness about vulnerability inspired me to include my doubts, weaknesses, and confusion in this thesis. My third reader Prof. Dr. Andreas Waczkat, I thank for his helpful comments and stimulating questions in response to my presentations of parts of this work. These stimulated me to keep rethinking my own argument.I also thank my interlocutors, who spent (in some cases large amounts of) time with me, answered my many questions, were willing to chat, gossip, cook, eat, hang out, discuss music, practice together, and allowed me to listen to their teaching, performing, and practicing. You invited me into your lives, homes, and some of you into your hearts. In approximate order of appearances, I thank: Ken Zuckerman and his students, Daniel Bradley and his students, Swapan Chaudhuri and his students, Laurent Aubert, Felix van Lamsweerde, Wim van der Meer,
