Chiari Ed Onesti Distinguo CAP 5 CHIARI ED ONESTI DISTINGUO I GENERI MUSICALI I generi musicali sono categorie entro le quali vengono raggruppate, indipendentemente dalla loro forma, composizioni musicali aventi caratteristiche generali comuni, quali l'organico strumentale, il destinatario e il contesto in cui sono eseguite. Schema riassuntivo della divisione dei generi musicali.[1] Il grado di omogeneità formale e stilistica di tali raggruppamenti è molto variabile e diviene addirittura nullo nel caso di generi con alle spalle una lunga storia, quali la musica sinfonica o l'opera lirica. La loro identità si fonda piuttosto sul contesto sociale e ambientale a cui le composizioni sono destinate (il teatro, la sala da concerto, la discoteca, la strada, la sala da ballo, la chiesa, il salotto) e sulle diverse modalità con cui la musica si coniuga di volta in volta ad altre forme di spettacolo, arte o letteratura, quali il teatro, l'immagine, la poesia, il racconto. Una distinzione di base comunemente riconosciuta è quindi quella fra Musica folclorica, Musica popolare e Musica colta, visti come tre termini generici o macro-categorie che assieme racchiudono tutti i generi musicali, formando ciò che Philip Tagg definì come "triangolo assiomatico"[2][1] A conferma dello stretto legame che intercorre tra genere musicale, recezione e fruizione, negli ultimi decenni l'industria discografica ha spesso preferito, per ragioni commerciali, inquadrare gli interpreti entro singoli generi. Segue un elenco molto sommario: 1. Musica colta 18. Dramma giocoso (Italia) 2. Musica classica 19. Tragédie lyrique (Francia) 3. Musica sacra 20. Comédie lyrique (Francia) 4. Canto gregoriano 21. Opéra-comique (Francia) 5. Musica corale 22. Opéra-ballet (Francia) 6. Cantata 23. Grand opéra (Francia) 7. Musica liturgica 24. Singspiel (area germanica) 8. Musica sinfonica 25. Zarzuela (Spagna) 9. Poema sinfonico 26. Teatro musicale da camera 10. Musica da camera 27. Operetta 11. Musica pianistica 28. Cantata (profana) 12. Musica per balletto o Musica per 29. Oratorio danza 30. Musiche di scena 13. Opera lirica 31. Comédie-ballet (Francia) 14. Opera seria (Italia) 32. Musica classica indiana 15. Intermezzo (Italia) 33. Musica classica giapponese 16. Opera buffa (Italia) 34. Gagaku 17. Farsa (Italia) 35. Musica popolare e musica folklorica L'unificazione dei sovra-generi deve essere considerata la semplificazione di una realtà molto complessa e soggetta a punti di vista non facilmente conciliabili. Da una parte è vero che il concetto di musica etnica nasce per compensare il disinteresse della cultura musicale occidentale verso tutta la musica non destinata a contesti sociali alti o estranea all'area geografica dell'Europa centrale, e che di conseguenza non tutta la musica etnica si può considerare folklorica. Dall'altra, a partire dal XX secolo, la musica popolare acquista per lo più un'importanza commerciale che ne fa qualcosa di sostanzialmente diverso, e tuttavia tende spesso ad assorbire ed inglobare elementi propri della musica folklorica. Segue un breve elenco aggiornabile perchè sempre molto incompleto: 1. Aak 3. Bluegrass 5. Country rock 2. Bambuco 4. Country 6. Fado 76 7. Flamenco 58. Hip house 109. Raga Rock 8. Hillibilly 59.

Dutch house I nuovi generi musicali e la loro classificazione In anni recenti, alcuni generi musicali, universalmente riconosciuti come tali ma ancora non soggetti ad importanti trasformazioni storiche, sono stati classificati in base ad un insieme di criteri di tipo diverso, quali le forme musicali, le sonorità caratteristiche, gli stili, gli strumenti impiegati, i temi trattati nei testi letterari eventualmente abbinati alla musica e, talvolta, i collegamenti e le contaminazioni con generi musicali antecedenti o con tradizioni musicali provenienti da aree geografiche diverse. La combinazione di tutti questi fattori definisce sinteticamente l'identità del genere musicale, rendendolo riconoscibile ai suoi fruitori abituali. Tra i generi contemporanei si collocano: 1. Musica sperimentale 2. Musica minimalista 3. Musica puntillista 4. Musica arcaicizzante 5. Musica da film Il così detto Christian Rock Christian Rock è una forma di musica rock (del genere musicale Rock) suonata da individui e gruppi i cui membri sono cristiani (ma spesso solo di tipo nominale, NON nati di nuovo!) e che spesso concentrano i testi in materia di fede cristiana.

    15 mm front 153 mm 8 mm 19,9 mm 8 mm front 153 mm 15 mm 15 mm TELEVISUAL CULTURE TELEVISUAL CULTURE This collection includes eighteen essays that introduce the concept of Lüthe and Pöhlmann (eds) unpopular culture and explore its critical possibilities and ramifications from a large variety of perspectives. Proposing a third term that operates beyond the dichotomy of high culture and mass culture and yet offers a fresh approach to both, these essays address a multitude of different topics that can all be classified as unpopular culture. From David Foster Wallace and Ernest Hemingway to Zane Grey, from Christian rock and country to clack cetal, from Steven Seagal to Genesis (Breyer) P-Orridge, from K-pop to The Real Housewives, from natural disasters to 9/11, from thesis hatements to professional sports, these essays find the unpopular across media and genres, and they analyze the politics and the aesthetics of an unpopular culture (and the unpopular in culture) that has not been duly recognized as such by the theories and methods of cultural studies.

    DRAWN TO THE GODS Religion and Humor in The Simpsons, South Park, and Family Guy Instructor’s Guide Dives into a new world of religious satire illuminated through the layers of religion and humor that make up the The Simpsons, South Park, and Family Guy. Drawing on the worldviews put forth by three wildly popular animated shows – The Simpsons, South Park, and Family Guy– David Feltmate demonstrates how ideas about religion’s proper place in American society are communicated through comedy. The book includes discussion of a wide range of American religions, including Protestant and Catholic Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Native American Religions, New Religious Movements, “Spirituality,” Hinduism, and Atheism. Along the way, readers are shown that jokes about religion are influential tools for teaching viewers how to interpret and judge religious people and institutions.

  • Going Down to South Park: Reporting the News on Television’S Most Politically and Socially Irreverent Animated Series
    Going Down to South Park: Reporting the News on Television’s Most Politically and Socially Irreverent Animated Series By Todd Smilovitz Abstract The image of the journalist on South Park is not one to be proud of. Journalists appear on more than half of the episodes in the show’s first nine seasons, but they are mostly purveyors of news that is opinionated, baseless, soft, sentimental, naïve, late-breaking and/or sensationalistic. Behind all of this shallow reporting is a quest by news media for ratings: the profit motive distorts news. The fact that almost all South Park journalism is broadcast news, which naturally tends to focus on sound bites rather than in-depth analysis, only enhances this effect. Whether the image of the journalist on South Park is a reflection of the modern American media, or vice versa, is left unsettled and to the eye of the beholder. * * * “A Sexy Action News Team Special Report: ‘Cough Medicine Abuse in School’ with the Sexy Action School News Team. It’s the report you can’t afford to miss.”1 -- Announcer setting up the boys’ final attempt to grab high ratings for their elementary school news show While this Sexy Action News Team special report could actually be seen as investigative journalism, it only comes about after more sensationalistic methods for becoming the number Going Down to South Park By Todd Smilovitz 2 one South Park Elementary School news show fail. In other words, the serious, investigative content of the show is only incidental to the profit motive. Live, late-breaking special reports by eyewitness news teams are the real king of South Park journalism.

  • A Look at Media's Impact on Race and Gender
    Media Today: A Look at Media's Impact on Race and Gender Emmanuel Cuevas Bracamontes California State University East Bay COMM 4500 Gender Identity and Representation June 3, 2014 ABSTRACT: Cultural studies gives us an academic platform in which we can look at today's media and how it affects our perception of gender and race.
