Abstract

'Opera in the Jazz Age' examines the place of opera in the contemporary 'battle of the brows': a debate, prompted by the growth of the mass entertainment industry, about the extent to which art forms ought to be labelled 'highbrow', 'middlebrow', or 'lowbrow'. The text considers this question from a number of viewpoints, examining topics including: the audience for opera during the period; opera's interactions with forms of popular culture including jazz, film, and middlebrow novels; and the ways in which different types and nationalities of opera were categorised differently

Abstract

In What Makes Music European, Marcello Sorce Keller addresses the little-discussed matters that are essential to an understanding of how music intersects with the life of so many people. Readers are offered an approach for thinking about music that depends as much on its history as on the concepts and attitudes of the social sciences. What Makes Music European concisely demonstrates, to those familiar with Western music, how peculiar Euro-Western concepts of music app

Abstract

From jazz and folk to hip hop, heavy metal, and straight edge, popular music is not only a cultural artifact but an ever-expanding part of our social lives. The sixteen different genres explored in Music Sociology demonstrate that music is everywhere reflects social values, organizational processes, meanings, and individual identity. Presenting original ethnographic research, the contributors use descriptions of subcultures to explain the concepts of music sociology, including the rituals that link people to music - and the past and each other. The authors consider the intersections of race, class, and gender identity as they are learned, structured, and modified through lyrics and cultural experiences. Authenticity of music in the way it is performed, understood, and experienced is central to the book, as is the way the music industry and technology further modify these experiences. Written by sociologists also involved in music, this collection takes the reader on a very personal - yet public - journey. It introduces the sociology of music to those who may not be familiar with it and provides a basic historical perspective on popular music in America. -- from back cover.

Abstract

"Avec ses Prospectives musicologiques, Danièle Pistone offre une approche qui permettra d'aborder le vaste ensemble de ses publications grâce au choix critique qu'elle a effectué au sein d'un parcours riche et varié. Les dix études réunies ici s'articulent autour de trois thèmes forts, la sociologie de la musique, la méthodologie et l'esthétique, et abordent des thèmes pour la plupart encore rarement liés à la recherche musicologique : réflexion sur l'art de la biographie, les liens entre piano et société, l'histoire ou l'actualité des associations, les catalogues d'oeuvres, la titrologie, la typologie, la contextualisation, l'analogie, les leçons de la lexicologie et de la stylistique comme de l'imaginaire."--Back cover.

Abstract

Ce livre est un appel à l'indiscipline théorique, pour écouter la musique comme un moyen de connaissance, une forme sonore du savoir et pour entendre, dans la musique d'aujourd'hui et ses conflits avec l'argent, l'énoncé des futurs possibles.
