What does basketball sound like? Football? Baseball? Soccer? Indigenous sports? This roundtable examines how music and sound shape the performance, experience, and understanding of sport across various arenas, real and imagined. In this age of surgent nationalism, sports soundscapes play an increasingly significant role in public discourse as scenes of social, political, and epistemic struggle and expression, and as sites for negotiating ideas, identities, ideologies, and ontologies across a diversity of situated and large-scale social contexts. While the intersection of music, sound, and sport has long been an object of ethnomusicological inquiry, brought to the fore with important works by Tim Cooley and the late Ken McLeod, the field demands further investigation as halftime shows, crowd singalongs, DJs, organs, chants, and cheers demonstrate the critical role of the aural in sport’s global mediascape. This roundtable brings together six scholars conducting cutting-edge research and developing innovative pedagogical approaches to teaching these materials. Drawing on fieldwork across North America, Europe, and South America, participants examine basketball, football, baseball, soccer, and Indigenous sporting practices. Their research spans the late nineteenth century to the present, employing methodologies from historical archival research to sensory ethnography and research-creation. Collectively, they address the theoretical and philosophical underpinnings of their work along with the sociocultural and political implications of their teaching and writing. Following ten-minute position statements, presenters will discuss how sports soundscapes serve as sites of power, politics, and pedagogy, setting the stage for extended audience discussion with the field’s most pressing questions and future directions.
