Goldstein (1927-1995) housed at the Memorial University of Newfoundland Folklore and Language Archive (MUNFLA). Kenneth Goldstein, a distinguished American folklore scholar and theorist, spent two years (1976-78) as the head of the Department of Folklore at the Memorial University of Newfoundland. From that time until his death on 11 November 1995 he was a Research Associate at Memorial. In this capacity and with several local collectors, from 1978 until 1990, he amassed a collection of folksongs from various parts of Newfoundland and Labrador. His Newfoundland collections came from St. John’s, the Southern Shore, St. Mary’s Bay, Placentia Bay, the Burin Peninsula, Conception Bay, Trinity Bay, Bonavista Bay, White Bay, Fogo Island, the Great Northern Peninsula and the Codroy Region. He also recorded songs in Central Labrador and the southern coast of Labrador. About 3400 songs were collected by Goldstein from 243 performers in the province. The Goldstein materials at MUNFLA comprise 208 tapes, organized into twenty-three collections. Each tape is uniquely identified by its own shelflist number (prefixed by an F- or a C-, depending on whether it is a workcopy), and each collection by its accession number. Any song can be fully cited by its title and the combination of shelflist and accession numbers assigned to it. Goldstein planned a linked series of books to make available to scholars and the public his entire Newfoundland collection. Unfortunately his death came before he was able to bring the project to fruition. Nonetheless, he had through his life in Newfoundland published several articles and notes based on songs in his MUNFLA collections. In the early 1980s he, with collaborators, published five short notes on Newfoundland songs and singers in a short-lived magazine of Newfoundland and Labrador folklore, The Livyere.1 His main contributions to a 1983 highschool textbook series on Newfoundland folk literature were based, in part, on his fieldwork collections. One was called Folksong23 and the other Recitations and Monologues. In 1985 he published "Faith and Fate in Sea Disaster Ballads of Newfoundland Fishermen."4 In 1991 he published "A Report on Continuing Research into 'Treason Songs': A Private "Song: Songs from the Repertoire of James Patrick Kelly." The Livyere 1:2 (1981), 12-17. With William C. Butt: "Song: Songs from the Repertoire of Tom King." The Livyere 1:1 (Summer 1981), 14-17.

Goldstein Inventory - 1 Newfoundland Folksong Tradition."5 Goldstein recorded his tapes on full- and half-track, quarter-inch audio tape on a Nagra, and later on a variety of cassettes machines, notably a Sony stereo TC5 and a Sony monaural TCM5000. MUNFLA holds cassette copies of all the tapes in the collection while the cassette and open-reel originals are in the Goldstein private collection in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Most of MUNFLA's copies were made by Goldstein himself at MUNFLA soon after collection. The finding aid is divided into four sections: - a description of the Goldstein holdings at MUNFLA organized by accession number; - a tape number concordance of the collector’s numbers and the MUNFLA shelflist numbers; - a song title index, alphabetically arranged, including MUNFLA tape shelflist numbers; and, - a performer index including MUNFLA tape shelflist numbers. Almost entirely, the index of songs is based on titles given by Goldstein himself when he prepared tables of contents for each of his tapes.

  • Folk Song in Cumbria: a Distinctive Regional
    FOLK SONG IN CUMBRIA: A DISTINCTIVE REGIONAL REPERTOIRE? A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Susan Margaret Allan, MA (Lancaster), BEd (London) University of Lancaster, November 2016 ABSTRACT One of the lacunae of traditional music scholarship in England has been the lack of systematic study of folk song and its performance in discrete geographical areas. This thesis endeavours to address this gap in knowledge for one region through a study of Cumbrian folk song and its performance over the past two hundred years. Although primarily a social history of popular culture, with some elements of ethnography and a little musicology, it is also a participant-observer study from the personal perspective of one who has performed and collected Cumbrian folk songs for some forty years. The principal task has been to research and present the folk songs known to have been published or performed in Cumbria since circa 1900, designated as the Cumbrian Folk Song Corpus: a body of 515 songs from 1010 different sources, including manuscripts, print, recordings and broadcasts. The thesis begins with the history of the best-known Cumbrian folk song, ‘D’Ye Ken John Peel’ from its date of composition around 1830 through to the late twentieth century. From this narrative the main themes of the thesis are drawn out: the problem of defining ‘folk song’, given its eclectic nature; the role of the various collectors, mediators and performers of folk songs over the years, including myself; the range of different contexts in which the songs have been performed, and by whom; the vexed questions of ‘authenticity’ and ‘invented tradition’, and the extent to which this repertoire is a distinctive regional one.

By working with leading authors who represent the very best the profession has to offer for all levels from preschool through college and beyond, GIA seeks to help music teachers communicate the joy, art, skill, complexity, and knowledge of musicianship. This year we again offer a wide range of new resources for early childhood through college. Scott Edgar explores Music Education and Social Emotional Learning (page 7); the legendary Teaching Music through Performance in Band series moves to Volume 11 (page 8); Scott Rush publishes Habits of a Significant Band Director (page 9) and together with Christopher Selby releases Habits of a Successful Middle Level Musician (pages 10-11). And there’s finally a Habits book for choir directors (page 12). James Jordan gives us four substantial new publications (pages 13-16). There’s also an Ultimate Guide to Creating a Quality Music Assessment Program (page 19). For general music teachers, there is a beautiful collection of folk songs from Bali (page 21), a best- selling book on combining John Feierabend’s First Steps in Music methodology with Orff Schulwerk (page 23), plus the new folk song picture book, Kitty Alone (page 24), just to start. All told, this catalog has 400 pages of resources to explore and enjoy!

THARP May 2020 Copyright Kevin L. Tharp 2020 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Thorough examination of the existing research and the content of ballad and folk song collections reveals a lack of information regarding the methods by which folk musicians learn the music they perform. The centuries-old practice of folk song and ballad performance is well- documented. Many Child ballads and other folk songs have been passed down through the generations. Oral tradition is the principal method of transmission in Ozark folk music. The variants this method produces are considered evidence of authenticity. Although alteration is a distinguishing characteristic of songs passed down in the oral tradition, many ballad variants have persisted in the folk record for great lengths of time without being altered beyond recognition.

  • The English Occupational Song
    UNIVERSITY OF UMEÅ DISSERTATION ISSN 0345-0155-ISBN 91-7174-649-8 From the Department of English, Faculty of Humanities, University of Umeå, Sweden. THE ENGLISH OCCUPATIONAL SONG AN ACADEMIC DISSERTATION which will, on the proper authority of the Chancellor's Office of Umeå University for passing the doctoral examination, be publicly defended in Hörsal E, Humanisthuset, on Saturday, May 23, at 10 a.m. Gerald Porter University of Umeå Umeå 1992 ABSTRACT THE ENGLISH OCCUPATIONAL SONG. Gerald Porter, FL, Department of English, University of Umeå, S 901 87, Sweden. This is the first full-length study in English of occupational songs. They occupy the space between rhythmic work songs and labour songs in that the occupation signifies. Occupation is a key territorial site. If the métier of the protagonist is mentioned in a ballad, it cannot be regarded as merely a piece of illustrative detail. On the contrary, it initiates a powerful series of connotations that control the narrative, while the song's specific features are drawn directly from the milieu of the performer. At the same time, occupational songs have to exist in a dialectical relationship with their milieu. On the one hand, they aspire to express the developing concerns of working people in a way that is simultaneously representational and metaphoric, and in this respect they display relative autonomy. On the other, they are subject to the mediation of the dominant or hegemonic culture for their dissemination. The discussion is song-based, concentrating on the occupation group rather than, as in several studies of recent years, the repertoire of a singer or the dynamics of a particular performance.
