This volume is a partial record of various papers delivered at that meeting, as well as the official record of reports given and business transacted at the three plenary sessions. Papers published herein have been lightly edited for certain stylistic consistencies but otherwise appear largely as the authors presented them at the meeting. KEYNOTE ADDRESS WEAPONS OF MASS INSTRUCTION NANCY SMITH FIGHTER Florida State University When I was invited to give this talk, it was suggested that I might address some of the critical issues currently characterizing the arenas of higher education and that I also might talk about art and art making. That seemed a tad global to me, but the more I thought about it, it seemed the only way to proceed because to separate all those topics might be to perpetuate the very separations and schisms that we find in our institutional lives today and that I hope to address in these remarks. My comments grow from a deep concern about the damaging separations between the arts that we serve and some of the administrative practices to which we are often asked to conform. And I should make clear that I am usually referring to such practices and mandates that are handed down to all of us from forces often very remote from our own administrative areas; forces such as legislatures, corporate overseers, and alien bureaucracies. Jaan Whitehead, whose discipline is theater, urges us to challenge and break out of the framework of institutional thinking "by asking how [our institutions] are affecting the ways we practice our art on a daily basis."' So I would like to offer some ideas about all of the above and will try to unravel some of the tangled threads as I go along. They are indeed tangled because the context in which the arts reside in academe today presents an unusually rich and complex and sometimes dense tapestry. To put it plainly, the "damaging separations" to which I refer are often the disconnects that derive from current practices that are not compatible with the disciplines to which they are applied. These schisms have multiple causes, many related to our expansion into institutional megaverses (our megaversities). During the past few decades, we have experienced previously imparalleled institutional expansion. In many cases, we have sought and welcomed the growth. But there is a significant difference between growth, true organic growth that proceeds from a center, and metastasis, a rapid, often random proliferation. When institutional growth skews into metastasis, there often seems to be an institutional panic reaction that yields vigorous efforts to control, to label, to measure; and this can lead to a separation from center, from the very disciplines that are the components of the institution. Although we like to think that we are always open to change and to its new possibilities, we have found ourselves confronted by new models of operation and fimction that often seem hostile to the very nature of our disciplines and missions. Sometimes we learn to adopt and adapt the new models in ways that are truly helpful; but too often the new managerial models have continued to be alien suits of armor that do not fit, and we find ourselves in "word prisons" that are not compatible with the special languages of the arts. False Accountability The five-hundred-pound elephant that is often in the room of many academic councils these days is, of course, the old corporate models. At the uppermost regions of academic administration, there is a striking resemblance to the old boardrooms of old Big Business. And I say "old" because, as you well may know, the real irony is that the new corporate thinking is looking more and more in the direction of what we might recognize as creative sensibilities. Big Business has discarded some of the old corporate models that academe is still clinging to. But those old models seem to have great staying power in institutions of higher education, and they have yielded some of the weapons of mass instruction that we encounter on a regular basis. We are once again immersed to a greater degree than ever in the accountability craze that spawns futile reporting exercises that are • attempts to quantify that which is unquantifiable; • attempts to give finitude to that which is infinite; • attempts to account for rather than to value. We are being asked to categorize with an improbable exactitude, to describe literally and to delineate that which (to use Suzanne Langer's words) "is virtually ineffable." Now we probably all know that it would not be the best strategy in some cases to go upstairs to our provosts, presidents, chancellors, and so on, and say we just cannot be accountable because we are dealing with that which is "virtually ineffable." It would all sound so vague.

  • Sound Recording in the British Folk Revival: Ideology, Discourse and Practice, 1950–1975
    Sound recording in the British folk revival: ideology, discourse and practice, 1950–1975 Matthew Ord Submitted in fulfilment of the degree of PhD International Centre for Music Studies Newcastle University March 2017 Abstract Although recent work in record production studies has advanced scholarly understandings of the contribution of sound recording to musical and social meaning, folk revival scholarship in Britain has yet to benefit from these insights. The revival’s recording practice took in a range of approaches and contexts including radio documentary, commercial studio productions and amateur field recordings. This thesis considers how these practices were mediated by revivalist beliefs and values, how recording was represented in revivalist discourse, and how its semiotic resources were incorporated into multimodal discourses about music, technology and traditional culture. Chapters 1 and 2 consider the role of recording in revivalist constructions of traditional culture and working class communities, contrasting the documentary realism of Topic’s single-mic field recordings with the consciously avant-garde style of the BBC’s Radio Ballads. The remaining three chapters explore how the sound of recorded folk was shaped by a mutually constitutive dialogue with popular music, with recordings constructing traditional performance as an authentic social practice in opposition to an Americanised studio sound equated with commercial/technological mediation. As the discourse of progressive rock elevated recording to an art practice associated with the global counterculture, however, opportunities arose for the incorporation of rock studio techniques in the interpretation of traditional song in the hybrid genre of folk-rock. Changes in studio practice and technical experiments with the semiotics of recorded sound experiments form the subject of the final two chapters.

  • “Fascinating Facts” December 2017
    Daily Sparkle CD - A Review of Famous Songs of the Past “Fascinating Facts” December 2017 Track 1 Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire The Christmas Song (commonly subtitled "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire") is a classic Christmas song written in 1944 by musician, composer, and vocalist Mel Tormé and Bob Wells. According to Tormé, the song was written during a blistering hot summer. In an effort to "stay cool by thinking cool", the most-performed Christmas song was born. "I saw four lines written on a notepad", Tormé recalled. "They started, "Chestnuts roasting..., Jack Frost nipping..., Yuletide carols..., Folks dressed up like Eskimos.' Bob (Wells, co-writer) hadn’t thought he was writing a song lyric! He said he thought if he could immerse himself in winter he could cool off! Forty minutes later that song was written. Nathaniel Adams Coles (March 17, 1919 – February 15, 1965), known professionally as Nat King Cole, was an American musician who first came to prominence as a leading jazz pianist. He owes most of his popular musical fame to his soft baritone voice, which he used to perform in big band and jazz genres. He was one of the first black Americans to host a television variety show. Cole fought racism all his life and rarely performed in segregated venues. In 1948, Cole purchased a house in an all-white neighbourhood of Los Angeles. The Ku Klux Klan, still active in Los Angeles well into the 1950s, responded by placing a burning cross on his front lawn. Members of the property-owners association told Cole they did not want any undesirables moving in.
