For Immediate Release: GREY FOX BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL “A Who’S Who of Bluegrass Music” JULY 15-18, 2010
For Immediate Release: GREY FOX BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL “A Who’s Who of Bluegrass Music” JULY 15-18, 2010 WINNER of IBMA BLUEGRASS EVENT OF THE YEAR AWARD On the Walsh Farm, Oak Hill, NY 12460 In Greene County NY’s Beautiful Catskill Mountain Region For the die-hard bluegrass fan, the thought of summer means making an annual pilgrimage to Oak Hill, NY where a normally quiet, out-of-the-way farm in rural Greene County is magically transformed into a community of world-class performers, exuberant fans, devoted volunteers, non-stop jamming, funky campsites, scrumptious food and booths filled with crafts, instruments and clothing. For the third week in July, the Walsh Farm is home to a colorful tent city of music, laughter, cooperation and good will! Long-time Grey Fox fans say it is a homecoming: a cherished reunion of friends who may see each other just once a year. Newcomers are struck by how warm and welcoming everyone is as they are quickly befriended by fellow fans, volunteers, vendors and even artists. “There may be several thousand people in attendance, but it feels like a small town where you know everyone,” says Australian, Jason Nicholas, now planning his third year at Grey Fox. The Northeast’s largest bluegrass festival moved to Oak Hill in 2008 after being held for decades in nearby Columbia County. To the new location, organizers brought all the components for which it is famous: multiple stages, hands-on learning workshops, festive foods, rustic camping, round-the-clock jamming and thousands of fans from all over the U.S., Canada, Europe and the Far East. -

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. -

Multimodal Deep Learning for Music Genre Classification
Oramas, S., Barbieri, F., Nieto, O., and Serra, X (2018). Multimodal Transactions of the International Society for Deep Learning for Music Genre Classification, Transactions of the Inter- Music Information Retrieval national Society for Music Information Retrieval, V(N), pp. xx–xx, DOI: https://doi.org/xx.xxxx/xxxx.xx ARTICLE TYPE Multimodal Deep Learning for Music Genre Classification Sergio Oramas,∗ Francesco Barbieri,y Oriol Nieto,z and Xavier Serra∗ Abstract Music genre labels are useful to organize songs, albums, and artists into broader groups that share similar musical characteristics. In this work, an approach to learn and combine multimodal data representations for music genre classification is proposed. Intermediate rep- resentations of deep neural networks are learned from audio tracks, text reviews, and cover art images, and further combined for classification. Experiments on single and multi-label genre classification are then carried out, evaluating the effect of the different learned repre- sentations and their combinations. Results on both experiments show how the aggregation of learned representations from different modalities improves the accuracy of the classifica- tion, suggesting that different modalities embed complementary information. In addition, the learning of a multimodal feature space increase the performance of pure audio representa- tions, which may be specially relevant when the other modalities are available for training, but not at prediction time. Moreover, a proposed approach for dimensionality reduction of target labels yields major improvements in multi-label classification not only in terms of accuracy, but also in terms of the diversity of the predicted genres, which implies a more fine-grained categorization. Finally, a qualitative analysis of the results sheds some light on the behavior of the different modalities in the classification task. -
Hybridity and Identity in the Pan-American Jazz Piano Tradition
Hybridity and Identity in the Pan-American Jazz Piano Tradition by William D.

Heller, PhD Hybridity and Identity in the Pan-American Jazz Piano Tradition William D. Scott, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2019 The term Latin jazz has often been employed by record labels, critics, and musicians alike to denote idioms ranging from Afro-Cuban music, to Brazilian samba and bossa nova, and more broadly to Latin American fusions with jazz. While many of these genres have coexisted under the Latin jazz heading in one manifestation or another, Panamanian pianist Danilo Pérez uses the expression “Pan-American jazz” to account for both the Afro-Cuban jazz tradition and non-Cuban Latin American fusions with jazz. Throughout this dissertation, I unpack the notion of Pan-American jazz from a variety of theoretical perspectives including Latinx identity discourse, transcription and musical analysis, and hybridity theory. -

CONTRIBUTIONS OF YORUBA MUSICIANS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF NIGERIAN POPULAR MUSIC Funso A. Fagbile and Blessing A. Amole Introduction Nigerian music as it is today has produced many kinds of art, religious, folk and popular music, some of which are known to be spread around the world. Ogisi (2005) classified Nigerian music into traditional, art, religious and popular music. He stressed further that traditional music is ethnic based and integral to culture, art music is contemplative music for aesthetic enjoyment, religious music is performed for religious activities in and outside the religious centers such as church, while popular music is essentially entertainment music. Nigerian popular music is further subdivided into two types: those in which Islamic musical element fused with African traditional music and those in which African idioms fused with elements of western music such as juju and highlife (Euba, 1989:14). Nigerian popular music is one of the least researched areas of the various types of Nigerian music and as such different areas such as contributions of Yoruba musicians in the area of popular music are yet to be addressed. Therefore, this paper tries to look into the area of Juju and Fuji music, their exponents, life history and contributions. Popular music in many African countries have seen turbulence and violence during the transition from a diverse region of folk cultures to a modern nation-state. Nigeria has more difficulty than most African countries in forging a popular cultural identity from the diverse people of the countryside. From its beginnings in the streets of Lagos, popular music in Nigeria had long been an integral part of the field of African pop, bringing in influences and instruments from many ethnic groups, most prominently including the Yoruba. -
Contemporary Nigerian Popular Music: a Menace to National Development
Journal of Arts & Humanities Contemporary Nigerian Popular Music: A Menace to National Development Ogunrinade D.O.A1 ABSTRACT There is no gainsaying that most of the recent forms of contemporary popular music produced, packaged, made available for public consumption constitute grave danger and serious threat to moral uprightness in Nigerian society. This has exposed the Nigerian society to a wide variety of insecurity and violence. This is evident as seen from series of moral decadence and dissipation that infiltrated the lives of the citizenry - especially the youths (the leaders of tomorrow) ranging from, sexual abuse, money mongering, indiscipline, examination malpractice and indecent dressing to mention but a few. Music is a powerful tool and a force for mobilization which brings about either reformation or deformation of character due to the type of rhythm, melody, harmony and principally the lyrics of the songs. This paper examines the new trend of contemporary popular music in Nigeria with a view to assess its negative and pessimistic impacts on the character of the citizenry in Nigerian society. Live performances of contemporary popular music were observed and audio and video tape materials relating to the said music were also analyzed based on their educational and moral values of such songs. It was discovered that many of contemporary popular music as we have it today in Nigeria communicates vulgarity and coarseness to the listeners and this poses a lot of negative effects on the attitude of the youths. Musicians employ indecent words to attract the youth thus creating negative influence on the character of the leaders of tomorrow (the youth) to engage in various debaucheries. -
San Antonio's West Side Sound

Olsen amalgamation of different ethnic beginning as early as the 1950s. Charlie Alvarado, Armando musical influences found in and around Almendarez (better known as Mando Cavallero), Frank San Antonio in South-Central Texas. It Rodarte, Sonny Ace, Clifford Scott, and Vernon “Spot” Barnett includes blues, conjunto, country, all contributed to the creation of the West Side Sound in one rhythm and blues, polka, swamp pop, way or another. Alvarado’s band, Charlie and the Jives, had such rock and roll, and other seemingly regional hits in 1959 as “For the Rest of My Life” and “My disparate styles. All of these have Angel of Love.” Cavallero had an influential conjunto group somehow been woven together into a called San Antonio Allegre that played live every Sunday sound that has captured the attention of morning on Radio KIWW.5 fans worldwide. In a sense, the very Almendarez formed several groups, including the popular eclectic nature of the West Side Sound rock and roll band Mando and the Chili Peppers. Rodarte led reflects the larger musical environment a group called the Del Kings, which formed in San Antonio of Texas, in which a number of ethnic during the late 1950s, and brought the West Side Sound to Las communities over the centuries have Vegas as the house band for the Sahara Club, where they exchanged musical traditions in a remained for nearly ten years.6 Sonny Ace had a number of prolific “cross-pollination” of cultures. -
Créolité and Réunionese Maloya: from ‘In-Between’ to ‘Moorings’
Créolité and Réunionese Maloya: From ‘In-between’ to ‘Moorings’ Stephen Muecke, University of New South Wales An old Malbar is wandering in the countryside at night, and, seeing a light, approaches a cabin.1 It is open, so he goes in. He is invited to have a meal. No questions are asked; but he sings a ‘busted maloya’ [maloya kabosé] that speaks of his desire to open his wings and fly away, to accept the invitation to sleep in the cabin, to fall into the arms of the person narrating the ballad, and to weep. The whole company sings the ‘busted maloya.’2 Malbar is the name for Tamils descended from indentured labourers from parts of South India including the Malabar Coast and Pondicherry, where the French had another colony. Estimated to number 180,000, these diasporic Tamils had lost their language and taken up the local lingua franca, Creole, spoken among the Madagascans, French, Chinese and Africans making up the population of Réunion in the Indian Ocean. Creole, as a language and set of cultural forms, is not typical of many locations in the Indian Ocean. While the central islands of Mauritius, the Seychelles, Rodriguez, Agalega, Chagos and Réunion have their distinct varieties of French Creole language, Creole is not a concept that has currency in East Africa, Madagascar or South Asia. Versions of creolized English exist in Northern and Western Australia; at Roper River in the 1 Thanks to Elisabeth de Cambiaire and the anonymous reviewers of this paper for useful additions and comments, and to Françoise Vergès and Carpanin Marimoutou for making available the UNESCO Dossier de Candidature. -
