    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Yiddish Songs of the Shoah A Source Study Based on the Collections of Shmerke Kaczerginski A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Bret Charles Werb 2014 Copyright © Bret Charles Werb 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Yiddish Songs of the Shoah A Source Study Based on the Collections of Shmerke Kaczerginski by Bret Charles Werb Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Timothy Rice, Chair This study examines the repertoire of Yiddish-language Shoah (or Holocaust) songs prepared for publication between the years 1945 and 1949, focusing its attention on the work of the most influential individual song collector, Shmerke Kaczerginski (1908-1954). Although a number of initiatives to preserve the “sung folklore” of the Nazi ghettos and camps were undertaken soon after the end of the Second World War, Kaczerginski’s magnum opus, the anthology Lider fun di getos un lagern (Songs of the Ghettos and Camps), published in New York in 1948, remains unsurpassed to this day as a resource for research in the field of Jewish folk and popular music of the Holocaust period. ii Chapter one of the dissertation recounts Kaczerginski’s life story, from his underprivileged childhood in Vilna, Imperial Russia (present-day Vilnius, Lithuania), to his tragic early death in Argentina. It details his political, social and literary development, his wartime involvement in ghetto cultural affairs and the underground resistance, and postwar sojourn from the Soviet sphere to the West. Kaczerginski’s formative years as a politically engaged poet and songwriter are shown to have underpinned his conviction that the repertoire of salvaged Shoah songs provided unique and authentic testimony to the Jewish experience of the war.

    Marconi Power JOHN & Cheese DIMICK Radio Finalists Smiling The Interview PAGE 7 3Page1 17 PAGE 37 SEPTEMBER 2011 Sonic Boom Radio Pros Are Gushing Over Nashville’s New Music onthly after monthly, book after book, the message was clear – Country ratings were growing. And as Country Aircheck spoke with programmers in all regions, the same refrain cameM back: It’s the music, stupid. Well, maybe not that bluntly, but the general idea was the same. Throw in a few network television star turns and some big album debuts and, suddenly, whispers of a new Country boom are becoming open conversation. Undeniably, something is happening in country music. Something good. Consultant Gerry McCracken, who until recently spent more than 14 years as Format Coordinator for Cox, sees the phenomenon on two levels. “Personally, I feel the music is much stronger, but my feelings really don’t play into it,” he says. “The research shows the music is stronger.” One of the best empirical arguments for this surge comes through analysis of current music percentages at Cox stations since 2009. In early September two years ago, WKHK/Richmond was 8% current. By late August 2011, it had doubled to 16%. Across the same time frame, KWEN/Tulsa expanded from 9% to 17%, WHKO/ Dayton jumped from 12% to 29%, and WZZK/Birmingham grew from 19% to 30% current. Testing Positive lean toward the contemporary, we see “We went jockless in late June, and began to rebuild from What makes those shifts so remarkable in the context of a music growth.

    1203107875 Dissertation Beresford

    Rhapsody in Red: Jazz and a Soviet Public Sphere Under Stalin By Benjamin J. Beresford A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved April 2017 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Mark Von Hagen, Chair Laurie Manchester Peter Schmelz Aaron Moore ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY August 2017 ABSTRACT This dissertation describes the public sphere that coalesced in the Soviet jazz scene during Josef Stalin’s reign. Scholars debate the extent to which Soviet citizens, especially under Stalin, were coerced into cooperating with the regime through terror; willingly cooperated with the regime out of self-interest; or re-aligned their speech, behavior, and thoughts to conform to Bolshevik ideology and discourse. In all cases, citizens were generally unable to openly express their own opinions on what Soviet society should look like. In this dissertation, I attempt to bridge this gap by analyzing the diverse reactions to jazz music in Josef Stalin’s Soviet Union. I argue that audience engagement with jazz and discussions about the genre in the Soviet press and elsewhere were attempts to grapple with bigger questions of public concern about leisure, morality, ethnicity, cosmopolitanism and patriotism in a socialist society. This jazz public sphere was suppressed in the late 1940s and early 1950s because of Cold War paranoia and fears of foreign influences in Soviet life. In its place, a counterpublic sphere formed, in which jazz enthusiasts expressed views on socialism that were more open and contradictory to official norms. This counterpublic sphere foreshadowed aspects of post-Stalinist Soviet culture. To support my arguments, I employ archival documents such as fan mail and censorship records, periodicals, memoirs, and Stalin-era jazz recordings to determine the themes present in jazz music, how audiences reacted to them, and how these popular reactions overlapped with those of journalists, musicologists, bureaucrats, and composers.

    Vysotsky's Soul Packaged in Tapes

    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: “Vysotsky’s Soul Packaged in Tapes": Identity and Russianness in the Music of Vladimir Vysotsky Heather Lynn Miller, Doctor of Philosophy, 2006. Dissertation directed by: Professor Robert C. Provine Division of Musicology and Ethnomusicology School of Music, University of Maryland This study examines the relationship between music, identity, and Russianness as demonstrated by the songs of the bard Vladimir Vysotsky. The career of Vysotsky occurred within the context of Soviet Russia, but more broadly, his songs embody characteristics specific to Russian culture. For this study, I draw on the fields of ethnomusicology, history, and cultural studies to assist in the interpretation of music and identity in a cultural context. By investigating the life and career of this individual, this study serves as a method in which to interpret the identity of a musical performer on multiple levels. I gathered fieldwork data in Moscow, Russia in the summers of 2003 and 2004. Information was gathered from various sites connected to Vysotsky, and from conversations with devotees of his music. The role of identity in musical performance is complex, and to analyze Vysotsky’s Russianness, I trace his artistic work as both ‘official’ actor and ‘unofficial’ musician. Additionally, I examine the lyrics of Vysotsky’s songs for the purposes of relating his identity to Russian culture. In order to define ‘Russianness,’ I survey theoretical perspectives of ethnicity and nationalism, as well as musical and non-musical symbols, such as the Russian soul (dusha), all of which are part of the framework that creates Russian identity. In addition to Russian identity, I also address a performer’s musical identity which focuses mainly on musical composition and performance.

Aleksej Balabanov’s Brother and Rock as Film Music in Russian Cinema Ira Österberg ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Helsinki in lecture room 5 of the University Main Building, on the 9th of May, 2018 at 12 o’clock. Helsinki 2018 To Otto, my brother ISBN 978-951-51-4124-8 (paperback) ISBN 978-951-51-4125-5 (PDF) Unigrafia Helsinki 2018 Abstract This dissertation examines the role of rock songs as film music in Russian cinema. The focus is on the film music conventions of the Soviet period and how one important film, Aleksej Balabanov’s Brother (Brat, 1997), helped reshape those conventions in the 1990s. The study has three research questions: 1) How is music used in Brother? 2) How were rock songs used in Russian cinema prior to Brother? 3) What are the similarities and the differences between the two uses? The study is divided into two sections. First is a historical examination of Russian and Soviet cinema. The musical strategies of more than twenty films made between the late 1920s and the early 1990s are analyzed in order to investigate the conventional uses of songs and rock songs in particular. The second section focuses on Brother and provides a structural and narratological analysis of its use of music. The methodology of the research is based on film music narratology combined with traditional Russian formalist and structural-semiotic views of art-texts as structures.
