Gatten This bibliography updates two extensive works designed to include comprehensively all significant works by and about Woody Guthrie. Richard A. Reuss published A Woody Guthrie Bibliography, 1912–1967 in 1968 and Jeffrey N. Gatten’s article “Woody Guthrie: A Bibliographic Update, 1968–1986” appeared in 1988. With this current article, researchers need only utilize these three bibliographies to identify all English- language items of relevance related to, or written by, Guthrie. Introduction Woodrow Wilson Guthrie (1912–67) was a singer, musician, composer, author, artist, radio personality, columnist, activist, and philosopher. By now, most anyone with interest knows the shorthand version of his biography: refugee from the Oklahoma dust bowl, California radio show performer, New York City socialist, musical documentarian of the Northwest, merchant marine, and finally decline and death from Huntington’s chorea.

  • The Blues – a Gateway Into Improvisation a Smithsonian Folkways Lesson Designed By: Terry Jones North Idaho College Summary: J
    The Blues – a Gateway into Improvisation A Smithsonian Folkways Lesson Designed by: Terry Jones North Idaho College Summary: Jazz is at the heart of American music. At the heart of the style, and more importantly listening to and appreciating Jazz, is an understanding of improvisation. To those with limited musical experience, an understanding of improvisation is often extremely difficult and even frightening, that music is seemingly ‘made’ in a spontaneous manner. This lesson is design to give students a way into the world of improvisation as it exists in one of the fundamentally most influential styles of American music: the blues. Suggested Grade Levels: (6-8) Country: American Roots Region: South Culture Group: African American Genre: Blues Instruments: Guitars Language: English Co-Curricular Areas: Creative Writing; Social Studies – American History National Standards: Music Education standards 3,4,6 Prerequisites: Knowledge of rhythm and melody Objectives Students will be able to demonstrate their understanding of the common characteristic of Blues lyrics and the structure of Blues lyrics by composing Blues lyrics. Students will be able to demonstrate their understanding of how improvisation works by creating Blues lyrics spontaneously. Materials: Paper to write lyrics. The following recordings: Smithsonian Folkways. Son House’s “Country Farmer Blues” from the album Classic Blues from Smithsonian Folkways Recordings SFW40134 http://www.folkways.si.edu/classic-blues-from-folkways/african-american- music-folk/album/smithsonian and Bill Broonzy’s “Backwater Blues” form his album Big Bill Broonzy Sings Folk Songs SF40023. http://www.folkways.si.edu/big-bill-broonzy/sings-folk- songs/american-folk-blues/music/album/smithsonian Lesson Segments: 1.

  • Smithsonian Folkways Recordings: a Question of Balance
    Smithsonian Folkways Recordings: A Question of Balance D. A. Sonnebom How does a small record label, operating within a large museum setting, balance its educational mission's imperatives against economic need, a pair of priorities inherently in conflict? The following is a personal and reflexive view, affected in some measure by oral transmissions received from institutional elders but based always on my own experience. When I was a child, my home was filled with music from all over the world, including many releases from Folkways Records. Individually and as a collection, the music opened windows of my imagination and initiated a sense of curiosity and wonder about the experience and perception of others. The material ignited a musical passion that has proved lasting. I have served as Assistant Director of Smithsonian Folkways Recordings since 1998 and thus have had opportunity to live with the tensions of its "mission vs. operational needs" polarity, both to ask and try to answer the question on a daily basis. I offer this essay to readers in hopes that it may help demythologize and demystify the process whereby recordings of community-based traditions are promulgated from the setting of the United States national museum and into the increasingly globalized marketplace. The attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon in September 2001 exacerbated an economic contraction already in progress in the U.S. and produced a precipitous drop in recording sales during that year's last few months. The North American music industry continued depressed in 2002, with sales down on average more than ten percent as compared to the prior year.

  • Blues Legacy of Phil Wiggins | Smithsonian Folkways Magazine
    Winter 2018 Blues Legacy of Phil Wiggins by Jeff Place When one thinks of country blues, the usual thought is of the music of the Mississippi Delta. While many wonderful blues men and women have come out of the Delta over the last century, there has been a wonderful parallel style that exists on the East Coast of the United States, “East Coast blues,” or more recently called “Piedmont Blues”. The Piedmont is a geographic region that exists up and down the East Coast between the coastal tidewater region and the Appalachian Mountains. It includes the cities of Atlanta, Charlotte, Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. In the twentieth century many African Americans left the racial climate of the south and moved north to eastern cities like Washington. There were defense jobs in Washington and Baltimore to be had. Some of the great early East Coast blues musicians were Blind Blake from Florida, Willie McTell from Atlanta, Blind Boy Fuller and Sonny Terry from Durham, and Brownie McGhee from Knoxville. Phil Wiggins was born in Washington, D.C. in May of 1954. There was music in the house, his father, a government worker with the Department of the Interior, played piano. The Piedmont blues scene has always been strong, and still is, around Washington. In the 9th grade he discovered the harmonica and shortly thereafter met his first musical partner, Flora Molton, a street evangelist who played on an F Street corner in the shopping district. He began to play harmonica with Molton. From 1972 to 1976, he accompanied Molton at the then Smithsonian Festival of American Folklife.

  • Thank You for the Opportunity to Testify Before Your Subcommittee Today. on Behalf of the Entire Smithsonian Institution, We
    Statement of Dr. David J. Skorton, Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution On the Fiscal Year 2017 Request Subcommittee on Interior, Environment and Related Agencies Committee on Appropriations, U.S. House of Representatives March 23, 2016 Thank you for the opportunity to testify before your subcommittee today. On behalf of the entire Smithsonian Institution, we appreciate the continued generous support of the Congress and your confidence in us to understand, preserve and tell the story of America. Your investment in the Smithsonian is an investment in advancing the civic, educational, scientific, and artistic life of our nation. This unique public-private partnership has worked well since the Smithsonian was founded in 1846. From care and display of the Star-Spangled Banner to research on the Zika virus, we take our obligation to the American people seriously and leverage federal dollars with private support to greatly expand and enhance our reach and capabilities. As a public trust, the Smithsonian addresses some of the world’s most complex issues, preserves many of our nation’s greatest treasures, educates and enlightens millions, conducts ground-breaking research, and uses new technologies to broaden access to information for the public, and for policy makers. In keeping with our mission, “the increase and diffusion of knowledge,” the Smithsonian is a world leader in research and discovery, addressing today’s relevant issues and helping the American people understand our role in the world through science. We are also leaders in understanding the human condition and adding meaning to life through the arts and humanities. In July, I was privileged to begin my tenure as the 13th Secretary of the Smithsonian.

  • SMITHSONIAN GLOBAL SOUND and APPLIED ETHNOMUSICOLOGY on the INTERNET David
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: “ALAN LOMAX'S iPOD?”: SMITHSONIAN GLOBAL SOUND AND APPLIED ETHNOMUSICOLOGY ON THE INTERNET David Font, Master of Arts, 2007. Directed By: Jonathan Dueck, PhD School of Music The phenomenon of digital music on the Internet marks a turning point in the way human beings make, listen to, and share music. Smithsonian Global Sound is, variously: 1) a digital music download service; 2) the central hub of a network of digital music archives; and 3) the Internet branch of Smithsonian Folkways Recordings. Like all things vital, Smithsonian Global Sound is also developing rapidly. This thesis synthesizes a brief history of the Smithsonian Global Sound project, explores some of the vital issues related to the project, and offers a series of observations and recommendations for the project's development. Tracing the roots of Smithsonian Global Sound back to early archival efforts by music scholars, Moses Asch’s Folkways Records, the acquisition of the Folkways catalog by the Smithsonian, and the development and launch of Smithsonian Global Sound, the project is examined as a example of applied ethnomusicology on the Internet. “ALAN LOMAX'S iPOD?”: SMITHSONIAN GLOBAL SOUND AND APPLIED ETHNOMUSICOLOGY ON THE INTERNET By David Font.
