  • HIV/AIDS and Discourses of Stigma and Denial: the Interventive Nature of Music Performance
    HIV/AIDS and Discourses of Stigma and Denial: The Interventive Nature of Music Performance Thembela Vokwana Student No: 0011018F A Research Report submitted to the Faculty of Humanities, University of the Witwatersrand, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Cultural Studies) Supervisor: Professor C E Lucia Johannesburg February 2014 Abstract Discourses and general knowledge about HIV/AIDS filter down to the general population through the authoritative language of science and medicine, but various other role players also feature in such knowledge production. These include religious bodies, governments, and the general public. Each has noticeable effects on how HIV/AIDS is known, and more specifically, how those living with HIV/AIDS are treated in society. In this research, I use (auto)biographical texts by Cameron, Levin, McGregor and Steinberg as well as everyday talk, to analyse discursive processes around HIV/AIDS in South Africa. I examine the effects of language used in representing HIV/AIDS and explore how language contributes to a creation and maintenance of negative discourses that generate stigma, shame, and denial among those infected and affected. I then look at two films, one documenting the Mandela 46664 concert held in Greenpoint, Cape Town in 2003 which is captured together with other documentary material on the DVD 46664: The Event (2004), and the other called IThemba/Hope (also 2004), a documentary showing preparations of Sinikithemba choir, Umlazi, to perform at the 10th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Boston, USA. Through an examination of the music performances and extra-musical aspects, I interrogate how they can be seen to constitute an intervention potentially contributing to a counter discourse that helps to demystify HIV/AIDS in South Africa and destigmatize the disease.

    BROADWAY MUSICALS: RECENT PRESERVATIONS OF MUSICALS ON THE CONCERT STAGE AND IN THE STUDIO By James Fisher In 1985, RCA record producer Thomas Z. Shepard assembled an extraordinary cast of Broadway luminaries for two special performances of Stephen Sondheim's 1971 musical, Follies, which previously was represented in recordings by only an original cast album which eliminated, or significantly abbreviated, much of the score. Shepard's recording (RCA Red Seal, RCD2-7128) features virtually the entire score of the show, with snatches of dialogue, as recorded in concert before two enthusiastic audiences at Lincoln Center. In 1988, conductor John McGlinn's restored, complete (including a lengthy appendix of songs added to later versions of the show) studio recording (EMI, CDS 7 49108 2) of Jerome Kern's and Oscar Hammerstein's classic 1927 Broadway musical play, Show Boat, was released to widespread critical acclaim. The much­ recorded Show Boat had never before been captured in its entirety, and previous versions featured so many interpolations, omissions, or "updated" orchestrations that the simple beauty of Kern's score was often obscured. The success of these two otherwise unrelated recordings contributed to a revival of a nearly lost art-the studio recording of Broadway musicals with a cast and orchestra assembled not for any particular production, but for the sole purpose of preserving the score. The unexpected and extraordinary commercial success of the Follies and Show Boat recordings renewed interest in studio revivals of musicals leading to a flood of revisits to earlier works of the musical stage, while inspiring experimentation with the ways in which these recordings may present most successfully the score.

  • Popular Music and the State: the British Honours System and Its Treatment of Popular Musicians
    Journal of Cultural Analysis and Social Change, 2019, 4(2), 12 ISSN: 2589-1316 Popular Music and the State: The British Honours System and its Treatment of Popular Musicians Emma-Jayne Reekie 1* 1 University of Liverpool, UNITED KINGDOM *Corresponding Author: [email protected] Citation: Reekie, E. J. (2019). Popular Music and the State: The British Honours System and its Treatment of Popular Musicians, Journal of Cultural Analysis and Social Change, 4(2), 12. https://doi.org/10.20897/jcasc/6356 Published: December 11, 2019 ABSTRACT This article examines popular musicians recognised by the British honours system within its first hundred years of operation (1917-2017). Through a statistical analysis of a unique dataset of the honoured musicians, compiled for this article, it will be asserted that to be worthy of an honour entails possessing certain non- musical attributes including economic worth and notions of a particular type of Britishness. The increasing importance of popular music to Britain’s cultural life, identity and heritage through the 20th century and early 21st century is vital for understanding why musicians are valued by the government through the conferral of awards. The volume of musicians awarded post-1997 will demonstrate a shift in the perception of popular music by the British government as the creative industries become increasingly important to the British economy and finally, further analysis will reveal that women are underrepresented in the honours system, a trend which reflects wider socio-cultural trends in the recognition of women artists. Keywords: awards, popular music, cultural economy, honours system, Britishness INTRODUCTION “The thing about honours is that you should never ask for them, and you should never really expect them, but I think you should accept them if they are given to you” (Eliscu, 2002).
