  • Vanguard Label Discography Was Compiled Using Our Record Collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1953 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963, and Various Other Sources
    Discography Of The Vanguard Label Vanguard Records was established in New York City in 1947. It was owned by Maynard and Seymour Solomon. The label released classical, folk, international, jazz, pop, spoken word, rhythm and blues and blues. Vanguard had a subsidiary called Bach Guild that released classical music. The Solomon brothers started the company with a loan of $10,000 from their family and rented a small office on 80 East 11th Street. The label was started just as the 33 1/3 RPM LP was just gaining popularity and Vanguard concentrated on LP’s. Vanguard commissioned recordings of five Bach Cantatas and those were the first releases on the label. As the long play market expanded Vanguard moved into other fields of music besides classical. The famed producer John Hammond (Discoverer of Robert Johnson, Bruce Springsteen Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin) came in to supervise a jazz series called Jazz Showcase. The Solomon brothers’ politics was left leaning and many of the artists on Vanguard were black-listed by the House Un-American Activities Committive. Vanguard ignored the black-list of performers and had success with Cisco Houston, Paul Robeson and the Weavers. The Weavers were so successful that Vanguard moved more and more into the popular field. Folk music became the main focus of the label and the home of Joan Baez, Ian and Sylvia, Rooftop Singers, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Doc Watson, Country Joe and the Fish and many others. During the 1950’s and early 1960’s, a folk festival was held each year in Newport Rhode Island and Vanguard recorded and issued albums from the those events.

  • Vocal Persona
    Tagg: Music’s Meanings 343 10. Vocal persona HE VOICE is mankind’s primary musical instrument.1 Its impor‐ tance has already been mentioned in conjunction with prosody, with timbre and aural staging, with pitch range and register, [NM10-Vox.fm. 2013-02-13,[NM10-Vox.fm. 23:50] and of course with melody. As we’ll see in Chapter 13, voice is also at the basis of several musical sign types, including transscansions, lan‐ guage identifiers and paralinguistic anaphones. The purpose of this chapter is to suggest ways of denoting perceptions of the nonverbal as‐ pects of voice. Before going any further I need to clarify two points. One is the mean‐ ing of PERSONA, the other an explanation of the mainly vernacular source of ideas presented in this chapter. Persona PERSON, without the final A, means an individual human being and PERSONALITY ‘the distinctive character or qualities of a person’. In Latin, Italian and Spanish PERSONA (with the final A) just means PERSON but in English PERSONA denotes ‘an aspect of the personality as shown to or per‐ ceived by others’.2 Actors, singers and other types of performer aren’t the only ones to present personas2 because we all have to assume different roles in different situations at different times of life. Here are sixteen ex‐ amples from my own life: [1] child in relation to parents; [2] parent in relation to a child; [3] student in relation to teachers and [4] fellow stu‐ dents; [5] teacher in relation to students and [6] colleagues as well as [7] administrators; [8] lover; [9] husband; [10] good friend; [11] reasonably 1.

  • Parody As a Borrowing Practice in American Music, 1965–2015
    Parody as a Borrowing Practice in American Music, 1965–2015 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music by John P. Thomerson BM, State University of New York at Fredonia, 2008 MM, University of Louisville, 2010 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD ABSTRACT Parody is the most commonly used structural borrowing technique in contemporary American vernacular music. This study investigates parody as a borrowing practice, as a type of humor, as an expression of ethnic identity, and as a response to intellectual trends during the final portion of the twentieth century. This interdisciplinary study blends musicology with humor studies, ethnic studies, and intellectual history, touching on issues ranging from reception history to musical meaning and cultural memory. As a structural borrowing technique, parody often creates incongruity—whether lyrical, stylistic, thematic, evocative, aesthetic, or functional—within a recognized musical style. Parodists combine these musical incongruities with other comic techniques and social conventions to create humor. Parodists also rely on pre-existing music to create, reinforce, and police ethnic boundaries, which function within a racialized discourse through which parodists often negotiate ethnic identities along a white-black binary. Despite parody’s ubiquity in vernacular music and notwithstanding the genre’s resonance with several key themes from the age of fracture, cultivated musicians have generally parody. The genre’s structural borrowing technique limited the identities musicians could perform through parodic borrowings. This study suggests several areas of musicological inquiry that could be enriched through engagement with parody, a genre that offers a vast and largely unexplored repertoire indicating how musical, racial, and cultural ideas can circulate in popular discourse.
