“…The monopoly held by researchers of the Global North on advanced technology is quickly disintegrating. For example, in the Peruvian Central Rainforest, Indigenous leaders invest in high-priced smartphones that they use  for documentation and dissemination in the context of "Amasonic politics" (see Kummels, 2023). These cases of empowerment alone, of course, do not eliminate the digital divide regarding infrastructure and the price of connectivity.…”

The introduction first gives insights into the state of the art of sound “repatriation” concerning the way historical and current recordings of verbal arts, music, and dance are brought back into circulation in originating communities. Sound restitution also seeks to level the epistemological divide resulting from conventional archiving. The groundbreaking, collaborative reactivations taking place in South America explored within the three articles in this journal issue are presented. External researchers and local co‐researchers join forces to create shared soundscapes on an equitable basis; they develop innovative research designs for restitution and participate in webs of collaboration that take into account the recuperation of sound traditions that expert vocalists and instrumentalists, grassroots researchers, Indigenous leaders, and cultural entrepreneurs have independently initiated. Finally, the inclusion of co‐researchers in the curatorship of museum exhibitions and the need to identify anyone who may claim rights to oratory, music, and dance is addressed.

“…Interest in archival materials remains a compelling topic of research within ethnomusicology and music studies more broadly (Gunderson and Woods 2019; Kummels and Cánepa 2023). Music, Dance, and the Archive makes significant new contributions to understanding the broader cultural and artistic potential embedded within archival resources.…”
