The Artistry of Afro-Cuban Bata Drumming: Aesthetics, Transmission, Bonding, and Creativity
ISBN: 9781617036699 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An iconic symbol and sound of the Lucumi/Santeria religion, Afro-Cuban bata are talking drums that express the epic mythological narratives of the West African Yoruba deities known as orisha. By imitating aspects of speech and song, and by metaphorically referencing salient attributes of the deities, bata drummers facilitate the communal praising of orisha in a music ritual known as a toque de santo. In The Artistry of Afro-Cuban Bata Drumming, Kenneth Schweitzer blends musical transcription, musical analysis, interviews, ethnographic descriptions, and...

Musicking Bodies: Gesture and Voice in Hindustani Music
ISBN: 9780819573261 / Angielski / Miękka / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Indian vocalists trace intricate shapes with their hands while improvising melody. Although every vocalist has an idiosyncratic gestural style, students inherit ways of shaping melodic space from their teachers, and the motion of the hand and voice are always intimately connected. Though observers of Indian classical music have long commented on these gestures, Musicking Bodies is the first extended study of what singers actually do with their hands and voices. Matthew Rahaim draws on years of vocal training, ethnography, and close analysis to demonstrate the ways in which hand gesture is...

The Hallelujah Effect: Philosophical Reflections on Music, Performance Practice, and Technology
ISBN: 9781409449607 / Angielski / Twarda / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book studies the working efficacy of Leonard Cohen's song Hallelujah in the context of today's network culture. Especially as recorded on YouTube, k.d. lang's interpretation(s) of Cohen's Hallelujah, embody acoustically and visually/viscerally, what Nietzsche named the 'spirit of music'. Today, the working of music is magnified and transformed by recording dynamics and mediated via Facebook exchanges, blog postings and video sites. Given the sexual/religious core of Cohen's Hallelujah, this study poses a phenomenological reading of the objectification of both men and women, raising the...

Masculinity in Opera: Gender, History, and New Musicology
ISBN: 9780415640060 / Angielski / Twarda / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book addresses the ways in which masculinity is negotiated, constructed, represented, and problematized within operatic music and practice. Although the consideration of masculine ontology and epistemology has pervaded cultural and sociological studies since the late 1980s, and masculinity has been the focus of recent if sporadic musicological discussion, the relationship between masculinity and opera has so far escaped detailed critical scrutiny. Operating from a position of sympathy with feminist and queer approaches and the phallocentric tendencies they identify, this study offers a...

How is it being negotiated?...

Klangfarbe: Vergleichend-Systematische Und Musikhistorische Perspektiven
ISBN: 9783631606636 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die Musiktheorie westlicher Pragung nahm lange Zeit auf die Klangfarbe wenig Bedacht. Komponisten konnten ihre klanglichen Intentionen vor allem durch die Wahl der Instrumente realisieren. Erst zur Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts wird in der seriellen Musik der Versuch unternommen, Klangfarbe zu einem der Tonhohe und der Tondauer gleichberechtigten Parameter zu erheben. In der Ethnomusikologie ist man seit jeher starker auf die Bedeutung der Klangfarbe eingegangen. Die Begrenztheit der fur die Beschreibung von Klangen verfugbaren Terminologie stellte sich jedoch stets als grosse Hurde dar. Die...

McDonald rethinks the conventional history of the Palestinian crisis through an ethnographic analysis of music and musicians, protest songs, and popular culture. Charting a historical narrative that stretches from the late-Ottoman period through the end of the second Palestinian intifada, McDonald examines the shifting politics of music in its capacity to both reflect and shape fundamental aspects of national identity. Drawing case studies from Palestinian communities in Israel, in exile, and under occupation, McDonald grapples with the theoretical...

Migrating Music
ISBN: 9780415633598 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Migrating Music considers the issues around music and cosmopolitanism in new ways. Whilst much of the existing literature on 'world music' questions the apparently world-disclosing nature of this genre - but says relatively little about migration and mobility - diaspora studies have much to say about the latter, yet little about the significance of music. In this context, this book affirms the centrality of music as a mode of translation and cosmopolitan mediation, whilst also pointing out the complexity of the processes at stake within it. Migrating music, it argues, represents perhaps the...
