Abstract:
From Ani DiFranco to Bob Dylan to Woodie Guthrie, American folk music comprises a truly diverse and rich tradition—one that's almost impossible to define in broad terms. This book explains why folk music is still highly relevant in the digital age. From indigenous music to Pete Seeger and Bruce Springsteen singing "This Land Is Your Land" side-by-side at the pre-inaugural concert for our first African American president, folk music has been at the center of America's history. Thomas Jefferson wooed his bride-to-be with fiddle playing. Stephen Foster captured the mood of our country in transition. The Carter Family adapted music from across the pond to Appalachia. Paul Robeson carried folk music of many lands to the world stage. Woody Guthrie's dust bowl ballads spoke to the common man, while Sixties protest music put folk on the map, following the Kingston Trio's hit, "Tom Dooley." Folk music has evolved with America's changing landscape, celebrating its multi-cultural traditions. From Irish step dancers to rap, parlor songs to Dixieland, blues to classical, Discovering Folk Music presents the genre as surprisingly diverse, every bit the product of our national melting pot. Demonstrating continuing relevance of folk music in our everyday lives, the book spotlights an amazing array of personalities, with special emphasis on the folk revival era when Dylan, Baez, Odetta, and Peter, Paul and Mary sang out. These and others influenced such contemporary performers as Shawn Colvin and Ani DiFranco. Those on today's "fringes of folk" scene continue to look to these deep roots while embracing alternative sounds. Included are interviews with such legendary artists as Janis Ian, Tom Paxton, and Jean Ritchie. Nora Guthrie, Woody's daughter, also weighs in. Discovering Folk Music is a ground-breaking look at 21st-century folk music in our rapidly changing digital world, family friendly while ripe for rediscovery by the Woodstock generation.

Lewis, Hannah. Source Music and Cinematic Realism. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190635978.003.0006.

Full text
Abstract:
Chapter 5 focuses on the role of diegetic music in early poetic realist films. Poetic realism, the filmmaking genre that emerged out of the politics of the mid-1930s, had its roots in transition-era films by filmmakers such as Jean Grémillon, Julien Duvivier, Jacques Feyder, and perhaps most notably, Jean Renoir. The soundtracks of these filmmakers tended to favor a “realistic” incorporation of music into the narrative, an aesthetic decision grounded in a broader preference for direct recording, and frequently featured popular songs and street musicians to enhance the realism of a film’s setting. But diegetic music in early poetic realist films was multivalent, revealing the emotions or thoughts of characters, providing narrative commentary, and at times going against the expectations of a scene’s mood or actions. Considering diegetic music in early poetic realist sound films shows the ways in which audiovisual realism and stylization worked hand in hand.

Full text
Abstract:
The first comprehensive overview of contemporary inspirational music, covering its historical roots and dramatic growth into one of America's most vital music genres. The Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music: Pop, Rock, and Worship is the first comprehensive reference work on a form of American music that is far more popular than nonfans may realize. It fills a major gap in the literature on American music and Christian culture, looking at this increasingly popular genre in the context of the overall history of religious music in the United States. With over 200 entries, The Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music covers important performers and industry figures, songs and albums, concerts and festivals, the rise of Christian radio and television, and other issues related to the growth of inspirational music. Scholars and fans alike will find a wealth of revealing information and insightful coverage illustrating the influence of gospel on modern American music with musicians such as Elvis, Sam Cooke, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, and U2.The work also examines the use of fundamental rock, pop, and rap music templates in the service of songs of faith.

Full text
Abstract:
Country Music: A Very Short Introduction presents an overview of country music and its impact on American culture. Country music has long been a marker of American identity; from popular culture to politics, it has provided a soundtrack to national life. While traditionally associated with the working class, country music’s appeal is far broader than any other popular music style. While this music rose from the people, it is also a product of the popular music industry, and the way the music was marketed to its audience is a key part of its story. This VSI considers country music’s roots and development, and describes key artists, songs, and musical styles.

Beckford, Robert. Decolonizing Contemporary Gospel Music Through Praxis. Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781350081772.

Full text
Abstract:
Robert Beckford shows how the black British gospel music tradition is in crisis after it became distanced from the 'roots' of the gospel in the US that influenced it. The book develops a revolutionary gospel music genre or ‘social gospel,’ in two stages. The first stage is a reshaping and retooling of the theological and theo-musicological structures of contemporary gospel music, based on a socio-political reading of black British music production. The second stage is a practical guide, a theo-musicological reflection on the production of the author’s album: Jamaican Bible Remix. To reveal how these tracks are cut-and-mixed in the recording studio, the second part of the book consists of case studies of individual songs from the album (Incarnation: no blacks, no Irish, no dogs,’ and ‘Magnificat’). The book ends with a call for a post-logocentric black liberation theology situated within the black radical sacred music tradition of the African Caribbean diaspora.

Full text
Abstract:
Offering commentary, musical analysis, and detailed interpretation of her songs’ lyrics, this book examines the qualities of Sheryl Crow’s music that have served to establish the artist’s success and popularity. Sheryl Crow continues to be celebrated for her legacy as a singer-songwriter and pop culture icon. This book provides an introduction to Sheryl Crow’s entire music catalog. Organized into chronological periods of time, the author weaves biographical facts throughout a narrative rich with details about her songs: how they were created, recorded, distributed, and modified in live performance. Accompanying commentary features song analysis—including song structure, chord progression, and melody—and provides fascinating insights into the lyrical content of Crow’s songwriting. The work begins with Crow’s upbringing, her musical roots and influences, and how they manifested themselves in her later career. Subsequent sections delve into her road to success and eventual stardom, revealing how her rise to fame and widespread popularity was littered with broken friendships, acrimony, and suicide. The last several chapters follows her life after a diagnosis of breast cancer and the adoption of her sons. The work also includes a chapter on B-sides and rare songs by Crow.

Wolfson, Eric. Fifty Years of the Concept Album in Popular Music. Bloomsbury Publishing Inc, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781501391842.

Full text
Abstract:
The concept album is one of popular music’s most celebrated—and misunderstood—achievements. This book examines the untold history of the rock concept album, from The Beatles to Beyoncé. The roots of the concept album are nearly as old as the long-playing record itself, as recording artists began using the format to transcend a mere collection of songs into a listening experience that takes the listener on a journey through its unifying mood, theme, narrative, or underlying idea. Along the way, artists as varied as the Moody Blues, Jimi Hendrix, Joni Mitchell, Pink Floyd, Parliament, Donna Summer, Iron Maiden, Radiohead, The Notorious B.I.G., Green Day, Janelle Monáe, and Kendrick Lamar created albums that form an extended conversation of art and music. Limits were pushed as the format grew over the subsequent eras. Seminal albums like the Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, the Who’s Tommy, Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On, stand alongside modern classics like Liz Phair’s Exile in Guyville, Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, “m.A.A.d city,” and Beyoncé’s Lemonade. Mixing iconic albums with some newer and lesser-known works makes for a book that ventures into the many sides of a history that has yet to be told—until now.

Harding, Valentine. Children Singing: Nurture, Creativity, and Culture. A Study of Children’s Music-Making in London, UK, and in West Bengal, India. Edited by Graham Welch, David M. Howard, and John Nix. Oxford University Press, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199660773.013.65.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter considers children’s music-making in London, UK, and in rural West Bengal, India. While learning styles within these communities differ considerably, folk music is the basis of learning in both, with nursery rhymes and children’s songs considered within this category of “folk” music. The role of parents in both communities is a crucial factor in the learning process. In the Bengali context, parents often continue to teach music to their child into adulthood. The chapter considers the process of nurturing in early years, the role of nursery rhymes, teaching styles, introducing children to their cultural roots and, above all, the reactions of children themselves to these processes. The narrative also includes the influences of colonialism on children’s songs past and present, both in the UK and India, and in other previously colonized countries. The impact of modernization in India on the development of folk music is also considered.

Abstract:
This chapter studies Wilder's music in the 1960s. Continuing to follow trends he had begun at the end of the preceding decade, he wrote volumes of concert music for groups of all sizes in the 1960s, for wind ensembles and chamber orchestras and small groups and soloists with piano. He also wrote piano music, dramatic music of diverse kinds, and a handful of new songs, following traditional popular or art-song models. Also extending earlier trends, Wilder's loyalties to his artistic and ideological roots found musical expression through the efforts of loyal friends. As his travels and residencies and friendships multiplied, so did his catalog of original compositions perfectly suited for a faculty ensemble or senior recital or informal gathering in a college practice room or dormitory basement.

Mattison, Mike, and Ernest Suarez. Poetic Song Verse. University Press of Mississippi, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.14325/mississippi/9781496837271.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
This unique and accessibly written study discusses the relationship between the blues, rock, folk, jazz, and poetry in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, but it is anchored in the 1960s, when a concentration of artists transformed modes of popular music from entertainment to art-that-entertains. The authors (a professional musician and a literary historian) synthesize a wide range of writing about music—biographies, histories, articles in popular magazines, personal reminiscences, and a selective smattering of academic studies—and examine the development of a relatively new literary genre that they call poetic song verse. Poetic song verse was nurtured in the 50s and early 60s by the blues and in Beat coffee houses, and matured in the mid-to-late 60s in the art of Bob Dylan, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Gil Scott-Heron, and others who used voice, instrumentation, arrangement, and production to foreground semantically textured, often allusive, and evocative lyrics that resembled and engaged poetry. Among the topics Mattison and Suarez consider are: What, exactly, is this new genre? What were its origins? And how has it developed? How do we study and assess it? To answer these questions, the authors engage in an extended discussion of the roots of the relationship between blues-based music and poetry, and address how it developed into a distinct literary genre. The book balances historical details and analysis of particular songs with readability to create a lively, intelligent, and cohesive narrative that will provide a wide range of readers with an overarching perspective on the development of an exciting, relatively new literary genre.
