  • A Musicological and Theological Analysis of Sufjan Stevens's Song, "Christmas Unicorn"
    ABSTRACT I'm a Christmas Unicorn: A musicological and theological analysis of Sufjan Stevens's song, "Christmas Unicorn" Janna Martindale Director: Jean Boyd, Ph.D. The purpose of this thesis is to introduce the reader to Sufjan Stevens’s 2012 fifty- eight track album Silver & Gold, and specifically the final song, “Christmas Unicorn,” a twelve and half minute anti-epic pop song that starts off in a folk style and builds to an electronic, symphonic climax. The album presents many styles of Christmas songs, including Bach chorales, hymns, original songs, “Jingle Bells,” and a Prince cover. I argue that this album is a post-modern presentation demonstrating all the different expressions of Christmas are valid, no matter how commercial or humble. “Christmas Unicorn” synthesizes all these styles through the metaphor of the unicorn, which is a medieval symbol of Christ in the Nativity and the Crucifixion. Stevens uses the symbol of the unicorn to represent Christ as well as all humans and all the different attributes of Christmas.

  • Sufjan Stevens Was Born in Detroit, Michigan, and Grew up in the Chilly Upper Reaches of the Lower Peninsula. a Self-Taught Musi
    Sufjan Stevens was born in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in the chilly upper reaches of the Lower Peninsula. A self-taught musician, the young Sufjan pounded out elaborate Mozartian sonatas on a toy Casio, and by college became proficient on the oboe, recorder, banjo, guitar, vibraphone, bass, drums, piano, and other instruments too numerous to mention. Somewhere along the line he also started to sing, though at the time his friends didn't encourage it. He bought a 4-track tape cassette recorder and painstakingly composed 90-minute concept albums for The Nine Planets, The 12 Apostles, and The Four Humors. He read William Blake, William Wordsworth, and William Faulkner. At that time, in college, the world loomed large and daunting, and Sufjan's music came to sound like a medieval woodwind ensemble waving swords and torches at the twelve-headed dragon of death. During his last semester in college, Sufjan pruned, picked, and assembled a selection of these songs to produce the inaugural release "A Sun Came" on Asthmatic Kitty Records, a home label Sufjan initiated with his step-dad Lowell. A thousand copies were manufactured and shipped to a dark, dank closet somewhere in the vacuous black hole of the universe, where they shifted and snored in their sleep for several years to come. Sufjan then moved to New York City and lived bohemian style, with three other college graduates, in the unfashionable financial district, commuting by bike to The New School for Social Research, where he was enrolled in the masters program for writers. There he met Jhumpa Lahiri, harassed Philip Gourevitch on the telephone, and tried unsuccessfully to complete an epic collection of stories and sketches about backwoods Midwestern kinsmen—Christian Fundamentalists, Amway salesmen, crystal healers— all set in a small rural town in Michigan.

    Renegade_AMAZING GRACE_FINALTranscript_2_19_21 1 POTUS BARACK OBAMA VOICE OVER: I’ve often said that what makes America exceptional isn’t our wealth or size or skyscrapers or military power… It's the fact that America’s the only nation in human history that's made up of people of every race, religion and culture from every corner of the globe. And that we’ve had faith in our democracy, our common creed to blend this hodge podge of humanity into one people. Nothing symbolizes this truth more than our music. The way that generations of Americans stitch together every imaginable tradition – from African rhythms to Irish ballads – to create something entirely new. Whether it was Jazz or the Blues, Country or Rock n’ Roll. At the same time, our music’s often been a mirror into the fault lines of American society. And what gets played and who gets paid and the songs of those who have been relegated to the margins of society and in the songs of those insisting that their truths finally be heard. It's got a power to reshape social attitudes and make connections between people when mere words – even in good speeches – aren’t enough.

  • Michigan and Illinois
    Sufjan Stevens started his famous "The Fifty States Project" in 2003, the goal of which was to record an album about every state of the United States of America. He made two LPs about his two favorite states – Michigan and Illinois. The first album, simply titled "Michigan," was released in 2003. He constructed the image of Michigan from the point of view of a person who was born and grew up there, then migrated to New York City M aciej Sm ółka and was sentimental about the region of their childhood. Each song was a homage to the beloved home state, telling stories about places, people, cities and natural sites. ThisT LP is a very interesting piece that not only lets one study the way in which the author constructs the image of one’s homeland, but also how he deconstructs the stereotypes, Maciej Smółka publicizes some regional issues, and at the same time promotes the state through music. Say Yes! to M ichigan Because of that, the main purpose of this book is to research Sufjan Stevens's album in the context of the image of the state of Michigan it represents. Say Yes! to Moreover,Mo the analysis of "Michigan" provides valuable information about the popular culture in general – how instrumental can it be in shaping one's impression about a parti- cular place, what is the role of the author of a specific cultural text, what artistic measu- res are used to construct such an impression, and what effects it may cause.
