Let’s Talk it Over: “From Listener to Citizen: Music as a Constitutive Force of ASEAN Community”

🎶 What if the songs we listen to are shaping the communities we belong to?

Across ASEAN, music has always carried more than melody—the gongs, bamboo instruments, songs and shared rhythms echo throughout the region, connecting people long before any treaty did. When we hear ourselves in each other’s music, something shifts: we stop being separate audiences and start becoming community.

That’s the idea behind our next session of Let’s Talk it Over: “From Listener to Citizen: Music as a Constitutive Force of ASEAN Community”

We’ll explore how sound—not just as entertainment, but as a living, border-crossing practice—turns listeners into citizens of a region we’re still learning to call home.
