Obsah
A listening class of 100 years of musics through their audiences and analysis of recording and distribution practices and technologies. Using recordings and readings, this course presents insights on the diversity of global music. The premises of our class are the stories of music from the mid 1920’s advent of the electric recording era to our digital present. We’ll listen to and discuss how music has been produced, distributed, received and accepted by diverse publics. Neither a comparative musicology course, nor a class in ethnomusicology, rather a course in listening to and exploring a diversity of musics, many not widely known outside their own locales.
Each music is referred to through its traditions, recording methods and carrier towards an understanding based not just on rhythm, melody, harmony and timbre but with a strong orientation on evolving socio-economic, religious and cultural practices and of course issues of colonial imperialism and representation.
Distribution follows from format, which determines audience. In the US, at their inception, 78RPM records were sold in furniture stores as a sideline to the sale of the 78 cabinet player; In Niger today, young people listen to recorded music exclusively on their mobile phone’s microdrives. Along the way the 45RPM, LP, cassette, home or car or portable radio, CD, MP3/digital file, YouTube or digital streaming services such as Spotify have all been carriers or transmitters in reception histories. Where has all this music been recorded and by who? Why? How? Most importantly for whom? Have local audiences had access?
For a clearer course understanding here is the information page from Recorded Music Histories 1 & 2. Notes are provided in this google document and although incomplete evolve after each class:
