  • Haskell Cooley Bio
    Haskell Cooley Bio Without a doubt one of the most recognized names over the past 30 years in Southern Gospel Music has been The Cathedral Quartet. Names such as Gerald Wolfe, Mark Trammell, Scott Fowler, and others come to mind when you speak of the Cathedral Legacy. One of the early names to be associated with The Cathedral Quartet was Mr. Haskell Cooley. Haskell Cooley was born in Buffalo Valley, Oklahoma, a town that only just a few years ago, “made it on the map,” Haskell chuckled. “My playing technique is somewhat unique I guess,” Haskell began. He started playing piano at the age of 13, and was for the most part, self-taught. His first group to play for was The Cooley Brothers, consisting of Haskell and his two siblings. They sang mostly in the Oklahoma-Arkansas region. Haskell’s formal training began at the Stamps School of Music in Dallas, he then studied classical music while attending college. Incorporating both styles of music helped to set-apart Haskell and made his piano playing very recognizable. After college Haskell took a job teaching piano at the Easmon Napier School of Music in Wichita, Kansas one of his first students was a young lady named JoLee. She began bringing chocolate chip cookies to the teacher and after a few lessons the cookies became payment; JoLee had won the heart of her teacher! Soon they were married. In 1972 Haskell joined the Weatherfords playing piano. “I am eternally grateful to Lily Fern and her late husband Earl for giving me a chance to play gospel music for the first time on a professional level,” stated Haskell.

  • Archetypes in White Commercial Gospel Musics
    ARCHETYPES IN WHITE COMMERCIAL GOSPEL MUSICS: CONSTRUCTING CHRISTIAN NATIONALIST IDENTITY VIVIA KAY KIES WETTER A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO AUGUST2013 ©Vivia Kay Kieswetter, 2013 ABSTRACT Alan Lomax famously posited: "the chief function of song is to express the shared feelings and mold the joint activities of some human community. It is to be expected, therefore, that the content of the sung communication should be social rather than individual, normative rather than particular" (Lomax 1968: 3). The songs to be explored in this dissertation come under the large umbrella of what I am calling "White Commercial Gospel Music(s)," a term which, by my definition, encompasses Bluegrass Gospel, Gospel-tinged Country Music, Southern Gospel Quartet Singing, a large portion of Contemporary Christian Music, and a portion of the "Hillbilly" music of the early and middle twentieth century. It is the vernacular and popular sacred music that in large part originates from, and in its early history was consumed in, what has been called by sociologists the "Vernacular South," (Harvard Dialect Survey 2003, Cukor-Avila 2001) the region of the United States South from Kentucky and West Virginia, and West to Louisiana. As a group of genres, WCGMs are harmonically accessible, have repetitive natures that invite singing along, and for the most part adhere to Harlan Howard's famous description of what a country song should contain: "three chords and the truth."
