DISSERTATION “Music and Memory in a Global Age: Wedding Songs of the Syrian Druzes.” Dissertation chair, Ali Jihad Racy. This dissertation examines the wedding song repertoire of the Druzes of Jabal al-‘Arab in southern Syria. I investigate how Druze identity and values are expressed through these songs, and how the community’s identity is both affected by and reinforced through a collective memory of historical events as preserved in Druze song lyrics. The traditional wedding song repertoire provides an ideal context in which to study the relationship between collective and individual memory and the connection between collective memory and history. I also explore changes to the traditional repertoire, including the adoption of “stereo,” the commercial audiocassette dissemination of popular Arab music, and a corresponding preservation of some of the genres as “folklore.” Finally, this study illustrates the effectiveness of song in expressing collective memory and identity. The research is based on fieldwork in Syria, conducted from April to October 2000.

  • Maintaining a Musical Tradition in Arab-America: an Oral History of Abdel Karim Bader
    MAINTAINING A MUSICAL TRADITION IN ARAB-AMERICA: AN ORAL HISTORY OF ABDEL KARIM BADER By Igor Nunes Houwat A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Musicology 2011 ABSTRACT MAINTAINING A MUSICAL TRADITION IN ARAB-AMERICA: AN ORAL HISTORY OF ABDEL KARIM BADER By Igor Nunes Houwat Abdel Karim Bader, a cosmopolitan oud performer and teacher, was born in the Arab world in the early 1920s and immigrated to the United States of America in the early nineteen seventies. This thesis is an oral history that explores Bader as a carrier of an Arabic musical tradition, tarab, through three topics: biography, pedagogy, and improvisation. Bader’s biography unveils a rich social and musical persona which is understood through the lens of tarab musicianship and values. He favors a pragmatic apprenticeship method, common to tarab musicians, that heavily relies on oral methods to transmit ideas, repertoire, and stylistic subtleties. Finally, Bader’s improvisatory thought is influenced by both his knowledge of Arabic music theory and his performance experience, and it is exposed through examples from my lessons and an analysis of a solo improvisation. I have been Bader’s apprentice since January 2010 and view this study as a contribution to a little-known facet of Arab-American identity and cultural practice.

    JOURNALJOURNAL OF OF MusicRESEARCH ONLINE MusicA JOURNALA JOURNALOF THE MUSIC OF MUSICAUSTRALIA COUNCIL OF AUSTRALIA The Wizard of Oud: A Case Study of Sydney-based Oud Player Joseph Tawadros Introduction BRENT KEOGH This paper follows a growing body of work, the focus of which concerns musicians who intentionally engage and invest in the World Music industries as a central locus of creative activity (see, for example, Garrido and Bendrups 2013). Here, I adopt a ■ School of Media, Music, Communica- tions and Cultural Studies slightly different angle from the trends generally followed in academic discourse on Macquarie University World Music, which form a critique of this term and its role in broader colonial and New South Wales 2109 capitalist systems (see, for example, Feld 1996, 2000, 2012; Frith 2000; Erlman 1996) Australia and consider World Music at the micro level of individual musical encounters (see, for example, Bohlman 2002: 1; Slobin 1993) or both. While not eschewing in any way the critical literature concerning World Music — the tensions between the celebratory and anxious narratives concerning the reification, commodification and global circulation of sounds of the ‘other’, systems and agents — in this paper I consider the activities of Sydney-based musician Joseph Tawadros in order to draw particular attention to Email: [email protected] the discursive practices associated with the contemporary World Music industries in Australia and the ways musicians position themselves in local and global marketplaces. The discussion here is framed within Stuart Hall’s understanding of cultural identities as not essential but an act of positioning (Hall 1989: 226).

It’s Oliver Wang from Heat Rocks. Just wanted to let you know that for the next month we are rolling out a new mini- series about movies and music, just in time for award season. We’re calling it Music and Popcorn, and starting next week we’ll have four episodes where guests are invited to talk about one of their favorite soundtracks and the movies that use them. To kick things off, though, we wanted to revisit some of the previous episodes where we’ve explored this exact territory, and we’re gonna start with our conversation with comedian Eliza Skinner about John Huges’ classic 1980s teen drama, Pretty In Pink. 00:00:44 Music Music “Pretty in Pink” off the album Pretty in Pink by The Psychedelic Furs.
