These practices involve a constant interplay betweentheir participation in learning the music and reifi cation in performing it for other membersof the diaspora, as well as the British public. Within both realms of practice, as agentsof their own identity and community formation, these migrants practice authenticationthrough the establishment of claims on tradition and modernity—as this phenomenonis a part of the greater phenomena of deterritorialization, cultural displacement, andglobalization.
