  • Colombian Nationalism: Four Musical Perspectives for Violin and Piano
    COLOMBIAN NATIONALISM: FOUR MUSICAL PERSPECTIVES FOR VIOLIN AND PIANO by Ana Maria Trujillo A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Major: Music The University of Memphis December 2011 ABSTRACT Trujillo, Ana Maria. DMA. The University of Memphis. December/2011. Colombian Nationalism: Four Musical Perspectives for Violin and Piano. Dr. Kenneth Kreitner, Ph.D. This paper explores the Colombian nationalistic musical movement, which was born as a search for identity that various composers undertook in order to discover the roots of Colombian musical folklore. These roots, while distinct, have all played a significant part in the formation of the culture that gave birth to a unified national identity. It is this identity that acts as a recurring motif throughout the works of the four composers mentioned in this study, each representing a different stage of the nationalistic movement according to their respective generations, backgrounds, and ideological postures. The idea of universalism and the integration of a national identity into the sphere of the Western musical tradition is a dilemma that has caused internal struggle and strife among generations of musicians and artists in general. This paper strives to open a new path in the research of nationalistic music for violin and piano through the analyses of four works written for this type of chamber ensemble: the third movement of the Sonata Op. 7 No.1 for Violin and Piano by Guillermo Uribe Holguín; Lopeziana, piece for Violin and Piano by Adolfo Mejía; Sonata for Violin and Piano No.3 by Luís Antonio Escobar; and Dúo rapsódico con aires de currulao for Violin and Piano by Andrés Posada.

  • IJREE – International Journal for Research on Extended Education 2
    Free Contributions Dancing Ethnicity: A Qualitative Exploration of Immigrant Youth Agency in an Ethnically Specific Program Claudia G. Pineda & Michael J. Nakkula Abstract: This article addresses a conceptual gap in the Out-of-School Time literature by offering a framework to study the relationship between ethno-cultural components in pro- grams focused on youth ethnic culture (ESPs) and ethnic identity development among long- term participants. Using qualitative methodologies, it examined the meaning-making of eight Colombian immigrant youth participants in ColDance, an after-school program focused on Colombian culture in Boston. Findings suggest ColDance played a powerful role in foster- ing a positive connection with youth’s ethnic heritage crystallized in tangible dancing skills and specific knowledge about Colombian traditions. It provided and nurtured cultural bro- kers who eased youth’s adaptation process. Further, it suggests that a performance-oriented program may expose youth to receptive audiences that function as social mirrors fostering positive self-concepts. Keywords: After-school programs, ethnic identity, immigrant youth, Colombian youth, positive youth development. Out-of-School Time (OST) programs are considered key contexts for the positive development of diverse children and youth (Vandell/Pierce/Dadisman 2005). Stud- ies suggest that OST programs geared to minority children are most effective when they are culturally relevant. Although research on OST has made great strides in assessing the effects of different programming modalities, less is known regarding the effects of programs that are organized around youth ethnic culture. Some argue that programs geared to minority youth, including immigrant youth, have been too focused on the prevention of risk behavior rather than on the promotion of positive development (Villarruel/Montero-Sieburth/Dunbar/Outley 2005).

  • Afro-Colombian Hip-Hop: Globalization, Popular Music and Ethnic Identities
    AFRO-COLOMBIAN HIP-HOP: GLOBALIZATION, POPULAR MUSIC AND ETHNIC IDENTITIES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Christopher Charles Dennis, B.A., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Abril Trigo, Advisor Dr. Ileana Rodriguez Dr. Fernando Unzueta Advisor Graduate Program in Spanish and Portuguese ABSTRACT As scholars around the globe debate the shortcomings and virtues of economic and cultural globalization, I approach Afro-Colombian hip-hop as a form of testimony to study what young black Colombians – as representatives of a generation at a global crossroads – reveal about the challenges presented by globalization. Evidence indicates that globalization and neoliberal reform have aggravated socio-political ills through intensified warfare, poverty, income inequalities, massive displacement, and violence, among others. These circumstances, in turn, inform much of the Afro-Colombian testimony channeled through hip-hop. I maintain that the content of Afro-Colombian rap, and the circumstances that inspire it, support those who argue that ethnic-racial minorities in the peripheries of the world do not benefit from economic globalization and its anticipated rising tide of wealth and spread of human rights. The dissent and frustration expressed in this music point to youths who are aware that promises of economic distribution, democracy, tolerance, and cultural respect are not and cannot be for everyone. Globalization has also led to cultural transformations and changing ethnic identities, which are very evident among Afro-Colombian urban youth integrated into processes of economic modernization and cultural modernity. I examine various factors ii that currently interpellate Afro-Colombian ethnic identities constructed through music and its practice.
