  • THE STAGING of the FEMALE BODY in University of Stavanger COUNTRY MUSIC [email protected]
    MÜZİKTE TEMSİL & MÜZİKSEL TEMSİL II ‘STAND BY YOUR MAN’ Lise K. Özgen THE STAGING OF THE FEMALE BODY IN University of Stavanger COUNTRY MUSIC [email protected] I am going to look at performativity and expressions of femininity in popular music; more specifically in country music. An interesting example can be the Canadian singer d.lang, where the transition between women/man dynamic to a more ambiguous gender construction is fundamental in how lang represents herself through her songs. Performativity The connection between gender and performance has been discussed in many cultural theoretical settings, using the term ‘masquerade’. The term has become an important and nuanced theoretical aspect of femininity and its representation. Joan Riviere’s ‘Womanliness as a Masquerade’ from 1929 holds a key place in discussion of female sexuality in psychoanalysis. Riviere argued that femininity was a performance where there was no genuine femininity separate from the masquerade; there is no distinction between authentic womanliness and its masquerade. “Womanliness ... could be assumed and worn as a mask, both to hide the possession of masculinity and to avert the reprisals expected if she was found to possess it…” (Riviere 1929:213). According to this, gendered identities are produced and performed in everything one does, and there is no gendered identity separate from performance. Performance demands the idea of an act, where the performer constructs a fabricated or invented identity. In this context we can also include Judith Butler’s ideas about performativity. We as individuals create ourselves through activities. Performance is not something passive which carries in it an inherent meaning; instead we are created by active actions that confirm meaning.

  • 'Dolly Celebrates 25 Years of Dollywood' Talent Bios
    ‘DOLLY CELEBRATES 25 YEARS OF DOLLYWOOD’ TALENT BIOS DOLLY PARTON - "I've always been a writer. My songs are the door to every dream I've ever had and every success I've ever achieved," says Dolly Parton of her incredible career, which has spanned nearly five decades and is showing no signs of slowing down. An internationally renowned superstar, the iconic and irrepressible Parton has contributed countless treasures to the world of music entertainment, penning classic songs such as "Jolene," "Coat of Many Colors," and her mega-hit "I Will Always Love You." With 1977's crossover hit "Here You Come Again," she successfully erased the line between country and pop music without noticeably altering either her music or her image. "I'm not leaving country," she said at the time, "I'm just taking it with me." Making her film debut in the 1980 hit comedy “9 to 5,” Parton earned rave reviews for her performance and an Oscar nomination for writing the title tune, along with her second and third Grammy Awards. Roles in “Steel Magnolias,” “Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,” “Rhinestone,” and “Straight Talk” followed, along with two network television series, made for television movies, network and HBO specials, and guest-starring roles in series television. In 2006, Parton earned her second Oscar nomination for "Travelin' Thru," which she wrote for the film “Transamerica.” Dolly Parton's remarkable life began very humbly. Born January 19, 1946 on a farm in Sevier County, Tennessee, Parton is the fourth of twelve children. Her parents, Robert Lee and Avie Lee Parton struggled to make ends meet in the impoverished East Tennessee hills.

  • Wednesday, July 31 Thursday, August 1
    Wednesday, July 31 7:00-8:45 p.m. Pearl (an opera) KJ Bradford Aud. Amy Scurria, Duke University Session Chair: Margaret Thickstun, Hamilton College Pearl is an opera in development by Amy Scurria, composer, Carol Gilligan, feminist psychologist and librettist, Jonathan Gilligan, professor, poet, and librettist, and Sara Jobin conductor and producer. This work draws on Hawthorne’s Scarlet Letter but seeks to tell a different story, not Hawthorne’s but one that uses Hawthorne’s characters and circumstances, and is informed by a 21st-century feminist worldview. Our opera is a retelling of the Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne from the perspective of the daughter, Pearl. Pearl is a grown woman, a writer, with a daughter of her own. She is looking back at the events that shaped her childhood, seeking to find the truth that she knew as a child, but could not tell. Our opera purposefully turns the operatic status quo on its head by refusing to have any women characters die, go mad, or commit suicide. Our project is a direct response to Catherine Clément’s revealing book Opera, or the Undoing of Women. We tell another story: one that sheds light on the ills of the patriarchy, the cruelty and political maneuvering that occur in attempting to fit within the patriarchal construct, and the damage that it causes to both men and women. We end our opera with a voice of hope, calling people to consider a “brighter day, a new union not founded on dusky grief, but on shared joy.” Pearl was workshopped in the Berkshires at Shakespeare and Company on August 13, 2012.

  • The Faith of Dolly Parton by Dudley Delffs
    Dudley’s book gives great insight into why so many people around the world love Dolly Parton. While Dolly is one of the biggest superstars, she has never forgotten who she is and where she came from and the faith that anchors her life. GOVERNOR OF TENNESSEE, Bill Haslam, and First Lady Crissy Haslam Three amazing strands of stories are woven into this fabu- lous book, The Faith of Dolly Parton by Dudley Delffs. The thread of biography speaks of a fascinating woman whom we tend to think we know, but whom I admire even more when seeing her through the lens of faith. The thread of memoir shared through the author’s blending of his own life story with Dolly’s is a gift of hope and connection. And the final thread, that of devotional, invites us to more. Faith- based questions at the end of each chapter take us deeper into our own stories, while the prayers remind us that it was Dolly’s faith that has taken her to the heights she’s attained, as she humbly acknowledges. Reading this book reminded me of my own faith journey and the gift of story told through music, words, and life. I love this book! You will too! JANE KIRKPATRICK, award- winning author of All She Left Behind The Faith of Dolly Parton is a little book filled with big dreams! Dudley Delffs weaves together his unique spiritual journey with the wonder and wisdom of Dolly Parton’s with a heartwarming result. I was uplifted by the inspirational gifts of both and delighted by the author’s humor and the 9780310352921_FaithDollyParton_int_HC.indd 1 4/6/18 11:31 AM joy hidden in the stories of Dolly’s life.

  • (615) 327-0100 Established Nashville Producer
    1303 16th Ave. South Nashville, TN 37212 www.plamedia.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: P.L.A. Media Phone: (615) 327-0100 Renowned Nashville Producer Adds Additional Credits to His Already Lengthy List of Achievements Established Nashville producer Kent Wells recently added another credit to his resume with the sole production on the newest Dolly Parton studio album, Better Day. As a producer, Kent has generated numerous projects for other country artists including Michael Peterson, Neal McCoy, 4Runner, among others. He also co-produced, co-wrote and played on Dolly’s critically acclaimed Backwoods Barbie album, which was the highest debuting Billboard Chart album release of her historic career. With Dolly’s new album, Kent is extremely pleased and excited about how it turned out. “Working with Dolly is always so fun, and her creativity and talent really shine on the new record, as is the case with all her records, I guess,” laughs Kent. In addition to working with the legendary Dolly Parton, Kent also formed a new label, Go Time Records (GTR). The idea for the label grew from an ever increasing demand for music and music related products for many of the artists Kent was already developing at his production company. Featuring artists from multiple genres including country, rock and pop, the new label provides a chance for new artists to be credible, have a label home and national/international distribution and other career services. From production, duplication, packaging, imaging and distribution and marketing, the label will assist artists with independent releases and guide them through the ever-changing landscape while they control their own pace and tempo.

Dolly Parton in 1978. PHOTO: RICHARD E. AARONREDFERNS By Eddie Dean Dec. 31, 2020 1147 am ET Listen to this article 12 minutes In the late 1960s, Dolly Parton got her big break as the “girl singer” on “The Porter Wagoner Show,” a syndicated television program that brought hard-core honky-tonk and down-home humor into the living rooms of America. It may be hard to believe now, but back then Ms. Parton was only the second most flamboyant performer onstage. One of country music’s most magnetic stars, Wagoner had a peroxide pompadour and eye- popping, rhinestone-studded Nudie suits that defined Nashville glitz. Meanwhile, “Miss Dolly,” as he called her, was kept buttoned up in demure outfits despite her natural radiance and zest. Underpaid and underappreciated, Ms. Parton would later compare her seven-year stint with Wagoner to the time that indentured servants were required to work in order to earn their freedom. It was indeed a raw deal, but it was worth it. It gave her national exposure and performing experience with a peerless entertainer twice her age. It also allowed her to hone her songwriting talent, which had brought her to Nashville in 1964 as an 18-year- old from the Smoky Mountains.
