Description 詳情

In September 1951, the People’s Daily announced that the songs “Singing for the Motherland” and “The Hearts of the People all over the World united” should be sung nationwide to celebrate National Day. The broadcasting stations were advised to teach the songs, supported by Shanghai’s recording industry. This presentation “zooms” in onto the early politics of sound in New China. Record production was deemed essential for the establishment of an effective sonic propaganda system, aiming at radically changing and unifying the national soundscape.
