DVD 14 chapters, ca 86 min. INFORMATION In the standard history of American pop music, the 1950s are a parade of rock icons: Bill Haley, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Elvis Presley. But after the demise of the great dance bands of the 1940s, rock 'n' roll didn't actually secure its position as the Next Big Thing until quite late in the day. For a few short months, in fact, it seemed that rock might be just another pas- sing fad – and that calypso was here to stay. From late 1956 through mid-1957, calypso was everywhere: not just on the Hit Parade, but on the dance floor and the TV, in movie theaters and magazines, in college student unions and high school glee clubs. There were calypso card games, clothing lines, and children's toys. Calypso was the stuff of commercials and comedy routines, news reports and detective novels. Nightclubs across the country hastily tacked up fishnets and palm fronds and remade themselves as calypso rooms. Singers donned straw hats and tattered trousers and affected mock-West Indian 'ahk-cents.' And it was Harry Belafonte – not Elvis Presley – who with his 1956 album 'Calypso' had the first million-selling LP in the history of the record industry.

    Tout Moun Caribbean Journal of Cultural Studies http://journals.sta.uwi.edu/toutmoun/index.asp © The University of the West Indies, Department of Literary Cultural & Communication Studies Calypso, Education and Community in Trinidad and Tobago: From the 1940s to 2011 1 Calypso, Education and Community in Trinidad and Tobago from the 1940s to 2011 GORDON ROHLEHR I Introduction This essay has grown out of an address delivered on Wednesday January 28, 2009, at a seminar on the theme “Education through Community Issues and Possibilities for Development.” It explores the foundational ideas of Dr. Eric Williams about education as a vehicle for decolonization through nation-building, most of which he outlined in Education in the British West Indies,(1) a report that he prepared under the auspices of the Caribbean Research Council of the Caribbean Commission between 1945 and 1947, and published in 1950 in partnership with the Teachers’ Economic and Cultural Association [TECA] of Trinidad and Tobago. Drawing heavily upon De Wilton Rogers’s The Rise of the People’s National Movement,(2) this essay will detail Williams’s association with the TECA and its education arm, The People’s Education Movement [PEM] between 1950 and 1955 when Williams made the transition from research to politics via lectures, first at the Port-of-Spain library, then before massive crowds in Woodford Square. It will also explore the issues of education, community, and nation-building during the early Tout Moun ▪ Vol. 2 No. 1 ▪ October 2013 2 Gordon Rohlehr years of the PNM’s first term in office, when Williams struggled to sell his ideas(2) about educational reform and development to a skeptical and sometimes hostile hierarchy of entrenched interests.

  • Celebrating Our Calypso Monarchs 1939- 1980
    Celebrating our Calypso Monarchs 1939-1980 T&T History through the eyes of Calypso Early History Trinidad and Tobago as most other Caribbean islands, was colonized by the Europeans. What makes Trinidad’s colonial past unique is that it was colonized by the Spanish and later by the English, with Tobago being occupied by the Dutch, Britain and France several times. Eventually there was a large influx of French immigrants into Trinidad creating a heavy French influence. As a result, the earliest calypso songs were not sung in English but in French-Creole, sometimes called patois. African slaves were brought to Trinidad to work on the sugar plantations and were forbidden to communicate with one another. As a result, they began to sing songs that originated from West African Griot tradition, kaiso (West African kaito), as well as from drumming and stick-fighting songs. The song lyrics were used to make fun of the upper class and the slave owners, and the rhythms of calypso centered on the African drum, which rival groups used to beat out rhythms. Calypso tunes were sung during competitions each year at Carnival, led by chantwells. These characters led masquerade bands in call and response singing. The chantwells eventually became known as calypsonians, and the first calypso record was produced in 1914 by Lovey’s String Band. Calypso music began to move away from the call and response method to more of a ballad style and the lyrics were used to make sometimes humorous, sometimes stinging, social and political commentaries. During the mid and late 1930’s several standout figures in calypso emerged such as Atilla the Hun, Roaring Lion, and Lord Invader and calypso music moved onto the international scene.

  • Chapter 2 Defining Calypso
    Cover Page The handle http://hdl.handle.net/1887/45260 holds various files of this Leiden University dissertation Author: Charles, Clarence Title: Calypso music : identity and social influence : the Trinidadian experience Issue Date: 2016-11-22 71 Chapter 2 Defining Calypso In the absence of conclusive evidence that points to a singular ethnic source of origin, analysis is launched from the premise that calypso music is a product of the ethno-cultural mosaics found within the boundaries in which it emerged, was developed, and exists as various strains with features that are characteristic, sometimes unique to its host mosaic. Etymology and Anthropology So far efforts by researchers to establish the origin of calypso music as a definite song type have been inconclusive. The etymology of the term ‘calypso’ in reference to that song type has proven to be as equally mysterious and speculation remains divided among contributors. This chapter of the study will touch upon literature that speculates about these issues relative to the emergence and development of the song type on the island of Trinidad. At one end of the discussion about origin Lamson (1957, p. 60) has reported the use of French melodic material in calypso, and Raphael De Leon aka The Roaring Lion (1987) has argued in Calypsos from France to Trinidad: 800 Years of History, that the genre was given the pseudonym ‘calypso’ some time in 1900, and derives from French ‘ballade’ created in 1295. He has also publicly asserted that, there is no evidence to support the claim that it is either a variant of African folk songs or that it was invented by African slaves in Trinidad.

INFORMATIONEN Die Standardwerke zur Geschichte amerikanischer Popmusik beschreiben die Fünfzigerjahre als eine Parade der Rock-Ikonen Bill Haley, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Little Richard und Elvis Presley. Doch nach dem Niedergang der großen Tanzorchester der Vier- zigerjahre tauchte der Rock 'n' Roll keineswegs über Nacht als nächster großer Renner auf. Für einige wenige Monate sah es so aus, als sei Rock nur eine vorübergehende Laune und daß stattdessen Calypso bleiben würde. Von Ende 1956 bis in die Mitte des Jahres 1957 war Calypso überall: nicht nur in der Hitparade, auch auf der Tanzfläche und im Fernsehen, im Kino und in Zeitschriften, bei Studentenvereinigungen und bei Gesangsgruppen in Oberschulen. Es gab Calypso- Kartenspiele, -Modekollektionen und -Kinderspielzeug. Calypso wurde zum Gegenstand von Werbespots und Comedy-Pro- grammen, Nachrichtensendungen und Kriminalgeschichten. Überall im Land hefteten Nachtclubs überhastet Fischernetze und Palmwedel an die Wand und wurden zu Calypso-Hütten. Sänger setzten sich Strohhüte auf und trugen zerschlissene Hosen, täuschten einen karibischen 'Ahkzent' vor. Harry Belafonte – und nicht etwa Elvis Presley – verkaufte zum ersten Mal in der Ge- schichte der Musikindustrie mehr als eine Million Exemplare von seinem 1956er Album 'Calypso'. Kein Wunder also, daß Repor- ter und Händler zusammen mit Fachzeitschriften und Fanmagazinen die 'Calypso Craze' ausriefen.

  • Chapter 4 Calypso’S Function in Trinidadian Society
    Cover Page The handle http://hdl.handle.net/1887/45260 holds various files of this Leiden University dissertation Author: Charles, Clarence Title: Calypso music : identity and social influence : the Trinidadian experience Issue Date: 2016-11-22 137 Chapter 4 Calypso’s Function in Trinidadian Society In this chapter, the potential of calypso music and its associated institutions to construct and maintain identity, and to instigate social reform will be discussed. I will argue that affiliation with those institutions and participation in their related activities, many of which have already been outlined, have fostered the development and transmission of an ingrained tradition. I will also attempt to show that the ingrained tradition has been part of an independent arm of the rigid socio-cultural, socio-psychological and socio-political machinery that rose up to repudiate and deconstruct colonial ideology. In order to accomplish these goals, functions of calypso music within Trinidadian, West Indian and global communities at home and abroad will be examined and correlated to concepts upheld by identity theory, and with posits about social influence explored in the previous chapter. Such examination and correlation will be supported by the following paradigms or models for identity construction and social influence. These paradigms have been reiterated in the works of several scholars who posit within the realm of cultural and social identity: • Socialization processes; • The notion of social text; • Positioning through performer and audience relationships; • Cultural practice and performance as part of ritual; and • Globalization. Processes of Socialization Empirical evidence to support claims that calypso music has contributed to social change may well be generated from historical accounts and from the fact that the structuralist proposition that “performance simply reflects ‘underlying’ cultural patterns and social structures is no longer plausible among ethnomusicologists and anthropologists” (Stokes, 1994, p.

Rohlehr: CARNIVAL CANNIBALIZED OR CANNIBAL CARNIVALIZED... Congo Man The Mighty Sparrow first performed “Congo Man” at Queen’s Hall, Port of Spain, Trinidad, early in October 1964 (Trinidad Guardian [TG] 5 October 1964). Over four decades since then, he has performed it regularly and recorded it six times (de Four 72). Treating it as a sort of signature tune, Sparrow delights in creating a new version of strange sounds every time he performs it. “Congo Man” has been cited by journalist Debbie Jacob as “Sparrow’s own all- time favourite” (Sunday Express [SE] 10 February 1991). An intriguing calypso that only Sparrow can convincingly perform, “Congo Man” has raised questions about the centuries-old encounter between Africa and Europe in arenas of ethnicity, culture, gender and politics; the racial stereotyping that has been an almost timeless aspect of this encounter; the erasure of any clear image of Africa from the minds of diasporan African-ancestored citizens of the New World, and the carnivalesque performance of “Africa” in the transfigurative masquerades of Trinidad and New Orleans.
