Introduction: This week-long seminar will examine jazz and related styles as sites of negotiating race and nationhood in the American public sphere. Jazz was derived from African American musical forms in the period of slavery – including spirituals, blues, and minstrelsy shows – before emerging as a new hybrid in New Orleans at the turn of the twentieth century and then developing into swing, bebop, and beyond. Both derided and applauded at various points throughout the 1900s, jazz consistently provided a forum for a racial minority to be heard and created a space for interaction among for black and white musicians and audiences. This course will survey the critical position that jazz has played in the construction of American identity, using our location in New Orleans to immerse students in a cultural study of American history. More than the birthplace of jazz, the Crescent City also helped nurture subsequent musical styles, including swing, bebop, R&B, and New Orleans’s own distinctive contribution to hip- hop—bounce.

  • Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 © Copyright by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line by Benjamin Grant Doleac Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Cheryl L. Keyes, Chair The black brass band parade known as the second line has been a staple of New Orleans culture for nearly 150 years. Through more than a century of social, political and demographic upheaval, the second line has persisted as an institution in the city’s black community, with its swinging march beats and emphasis on collective improvisation eventually giving rise to jazz, funk, and a multitude of other popular genres both locally and around the world. More than any other local custom, the second line served as a crucible in which the participatory, syncretic character of black music in New Orleans took shape. While the beat of the second line reverberates far beyond the city limits today, the neighborhoods that provide the parade’s sustenance face grave challenges to their existence. Ten years after Hurricane Katrina tore up the economic and cultural fabric of New Orleans, these largely poor communities are plagued on one side by underfunded schools and internecine violence, and on the other by the rising tide of post-disaster gentrification and the redlining-in- disguise of neoliberal urban policy.

Both outsiders coming to New Orleans such as Ornette Coleman and Cannonball Adderley and locally born musicians such as Alvin Battiste, Ellis Marsalis, and James Black have contributed to this music. These musicians have influenced later players like Steve Masakowski, Shannon Powell, and Johnny Vidacovich up to more current musicians like Terence Blanchard, Donald Harrison, and Christian Scott. There are multiple reasons why New Orleans modern jazz has not had a greater profile. Some of these reasons relate to the economic considerations of modern jazz. It is difficult for anyone involved in modern jazz, whether musicians, record

New Orleans' own Hot 8 Brass Band has epitomized the New Orleans’ street music for over a decade. The band plays the traditional second line parade, hosted each Sunday afternoon by Social Aid and Pleasure Clubs, infusing their performances with the funk and energy that makes New Orleans music loved around the world. The members of Hot 8 Brass Band were born and raised in New Orleans and many began playing in high school.
