Abstract

"Music is a mobile art. When people move to faraway places, whether by choice or by force, they bring their music along. Music creates a meaningful point of contact for individuals and for groups; it can encourage curiosity and foster understanding, and it can preserve a sense of identity and comfort in an unfamiliar or hostile environment. Above all, music continually changes as it crosses cultural, linguistic, and political boundaries. While human mobility and mediation have always shaped music-making, our current era of digital connectedness introduces new creative opportunities and inspiration even as it extends concerns about issues such as copyright infringement and cultural appropriation. With its innovative multimodal approach, Music on the Move invites readers to listen and engage with many different types of music as they read. The text introduces a variety of concepts related to music's travels-with or without its makers-including colonialism, migration, diaspora, mediation, propaganda, copyright, and hybridity. The case studies represent a variety of musical genres and styles, Western and non-Western, concert music, traditional music, and popular music. Over one hundred audiovisual examples throughout the book demonstrate the application of particular concepts, and six interactive digital maps visually present music's global reach"-- Provided by publisher.

Abstract

Diverse musical cultures of migrant and minority communities have existed in Europe for centuries and shaped its countries significantly. As part of an EU-funded project this volume deals with the musical activities of minorities and their impact on musical traditions in Europe. It also raises questions such as: How are musical traditions of minorities integrated in education and the public music life? Can music facilitate transcultural dialogue? And to what extent do musical practice and performance reassert the own cultural tradition in a foreign environment? Answers to those and similar questions as well as a review on what can be observed in the 21st century Europe are gathered in various thematic approaches. The book also provides model projects with a practical insight into the life and work with music of migrant and minority cultures across Europe. Reviewed in: Stimme, 79 (2009), Gerda Lechleitner

Abstract

In Musicians in Transit Matthew B. Karush examines the transnational careers of seven of the most influential Argentine musicians of the twentieth century: Afro-Argentine swing guitarist Oscar Alemán, jazz saxophonist Gato Barbieri, composer Lalo Schifrin, tango innovator Astor Piazzolla, balada singer Sandro, folksinger Mercedes Sosa, and rock musician Gustavo Santaolalla. As active participants in the globalized music business, these artists interacted with musicians and audiences in the United States, Europe, and Latin America and contended with genre distinctions, marketing conventions, and ethnic stereotypes. By responding creatively to these constraints, they made innovative music that provided Argentines with new ways of understanding their nation’s place in the world.

Abstract

Since the early transformation of European music practice and theory in the cultural centers of Asia, Latin America, and Africa around 1900, it has become necessary for music history to be conceived globally - a challenge that musicology has hardly faced yet. This book discusses the effects of cultural globalization on processes of composition and distribution of art music in the 20th and 21st century. Christian Utz provides the foundations of a global music historiography, building on new models such as transnationalism, entangled histories, and reflexive globalization. The relationship between music and broader changes in society forms the central focus and is treated as a pivotal music-historical dynamic.

Abstract

ger: Das Thema dieser Arbeit ist die historische und musikalische Analyse der österreichischen Hip-Hop-Szene und ihrer lokalen Adaption des globalen Phänomens Hip-Hop. Sie bietet eine detaillierte und umfassende Darstellung der österreichischen Hip-Hop-Geschichte und liefert - mit Hilfe der musikalischen Analyse - einen Einblick in musikalische Charakteristika der Hip-Hop-Musik. Aber nicht nur allgemeine Charakteristika der Musik und ihrer dominanten Subgenres in Österreich werden aufgezeigt, ein Hauptziel der Untersuchung ist es, mögliche "glokale" Merkmale in der österreichischen Hip-Hop-Musik aufzuspüren."Glokalisierung" in Bezug auf Hip-Hop beschreibt die Verbindung von global vorherrschenden Merkmalen dieser Musik mit dem lokalen kulturellen Umfeld der MusikerInnen. Es wird aufgezeigt, wo diese "Glokalisierung" in der österreichischen Hip-Hop-Musik zu finden ist und wie sie realisiert wird. eng: The topic of this thesis is the historical and musical analysis of the Austrian hip-hop scene and its local adaptation of the global phenomenon hip-hop. It provides a detailed and comprehensive illustration of Austrian hip-hop's history and delivers – through the help of musical analysis – insight into musical characteristics of hip-hop music. But not only general characteristics of the music and its dominant subgenres in Austria are demonstrated, one main aim of the research is to seek out possible "glocal" features in Austrian hip-hop music. "Glocalization" in regard to hip-hop describes the conjunction of global prevalent characteristics of this music with the local cultural environment of the producers. It is shown, where this "glocalization" can be found in the Austrian hip-hop music and how it is realized. Erstmals wird in diesem Buch die für Deutschrap oft impulsgebende österreichische HipHop-Musiklandschaft auf Buchlänge ins Zentrum gerückt. Frederik Dörfler-Trummer zeichnet die Karrieren der wichtigsten Vertreter*innen - von Falco über Money Boy bis RAF Camora - nach und analysiert ihre Musik. Dabei werden genredefinierende Charakteristika des HipHop für die Subgenres BoomBap, Gangsta-Rap, Trap und Cloud-Rap herausgearbeitet. Über den Aspekt der Glokalisierung wird zudem das Zusammenspiel von globaler Verbreitung und lokaler Aneignung von HipHop-Musik demonstriert.
