Verse 2 I no longer feel happiness in my heart I only live in sadness, thinking of you, my love this pain intensifies, seeing that you forgot me so quickly. Consider: • Describe the tempo and rhythmic activity of this selection. How does the treatment of these musical elements correspond to the minor key and the sentiments expressed in the words? • How would you describe the timbre of the accordion? Do you concur with García Márquez? • What, in your view, does the repeated four-note motive (first in the accordion and then in the voice) contribute to the impact of this selection? Consider the words (“toda la culpa la tienes tu/it’s all your fault”). • Listen again to the instrumental interlude beginning at 1:27. At 1:40, the singer exclaims, “Listen to this, Pilar—with vallenato feeling!” Of what do you suppose “vallenato feeling” consists? Be sure to consider relevant elements of music as you formulate your response. © 2018 Carol A.

You are a brave cholito, the pride of the continent. They ought to know that the race of the cholos is superior! That’s it, Nimaira—play the hell out of that guitar. And cheers to you, old friend Gricelio Agreda. Consider: • How do you interpret the overall meaning of this wayno? Is the singer being ironic? Encouraging? • When rural people moved to Lima, they might be criticized for behavior that was perfectly ordinary in the altiplano, such as going barefoot or chewing coca leaves. (Coca is the same plant from which cocaine is made but chewing the leaves in this form affords mild stimulation only.) Why might the newcomer’s wool pants attract notice? • How does the intensification in the fuga portion complement the words? © 2018 Carol A.

MANUELA FERNÁNDEZ MAYO UNIVERSIDAD DE CÁDIZ RESUMEN Argentina ha visto surgir una serie de manifestaciones artísticas y culturales unidas al con- texto de la crisis, de las cuales destacamos en el panorama musical, la aparición y desarrollo de la cumbia villera, un subgénero musical que alberga la identidad del nuevo pobre urbano argen- tino, una música que se ha impuesto dentro del panorama de la música tropical como una rei- vindicación del estilo de vida de los habitantes de las villas miserias. Implica un discurso que manifiesta la discriminación, en tanto marginalidad y exclusión social a la vez. Por su parte, el teatro barrial ha aglutinado a los sectores sociales medios y su singularidad reside en que aquí los artistas, son los propios vecinos. El teatro comunitario parte de la idea de que el arte es un agente de transformación social y responde a un intento de recuperar la identidad cultural del país empezando por el barrio y el entorno, pero también se erige como un acto de resistencia cultu- ral frente a un mundo globalizado, que tiende a borrar las diferencias culturales. Palabras Clave: Argentina, crisis, cumbia villera, teatro barrial o comunitario. ABSTRACT Argentinian culture has been a witness – together with the economic crisis- of a group of artistic and cultural signs from which we, in the musical context- emphasize the beginning and development of the “cumbia villera”, a musical subgenre which shows the identity of the new urban poor man in Argentina, a kind of music that has prevailed within the tropical one as a claim to life style of inhabitants from poor villages, It refers to both, a marginal and social discrimina- tion.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis investigates the social and ideological process of the marimba musical tradition in rural Guatemalan society. A basic assumption of the thesis is that “making music” and “talking about music” are forms of communication whose meanings arise from the social and cultural context in which they occur. From this point of view the main aim of this investigation is the analysis of the roles played by music within society and the construction of its significance as part of the social and cultural process of adaptation, continuity and change of Achi society. For instance the thesis elucidates how the dynamic of continuity and change affects the transmission of a musical tradition. The influence of the radio and its popular music on the teaching methods, music genres and styles of marimba music is part of a changing Indian society nevertheless it remains an important symbols of locality and ethnic identity.

  • Colombian Nationalism: Four Musical Perspectives for Violin and Piano
    COLOMBIAN NATIONALISM: FOUR MUSICAL PERSPECTIVES FOR VIOLIN AND PIANO by Ana Maria Trujillo A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Major: Music The University of Memphis December 2011 ABSTRACT Trujillo, Ana Maria. DMA. The University of Memphis. December/2011. Colombian Nationalism: Four Musical Perspectives for Violin and Piano. Dr. Kenneth Kreitner, Ph.D. This paper explores the Colombian nationalistic musical movement, which was born as a search for identity that various composers undertook in order to discover the roots of Colombian musical folklore. These roots, while distinct, have all played a significant part in the formation of the culture that gave birth to a unified national identity. It is this identity that acts as a recurring motif throughout the works of the four composers mentioned in this study, each representing a different stage of the nationalistic movement according to their respective generations, backgrounds, and ideological postures. The idea of universalism and the integration of a national identity into the sphere of the Western musical tradition is a dilemma that has caused internal struggle and strife among generations of musicians and artists in general. This paper strives to open a new path in the research of nationalistic music for violin and piano through the analyses of four works written for this type of chamber ensemble: the third movement of the Sonata Op. 7 No.1 for Violin and Piano by Guillermo Uribe Holguín; Lopeziana, piece for Violin and Piano by Adolfo Mejía; Sonata for Violin and Piano No.3 by Luís Antonio Escobar; and Dúo rapsódico con aires de currulao for Violin and Piano by Andrés Posada.

  • Candombe Afrouruguayo Y Categorías Étnico-Raciales En Paraná, Santa Fe Y Rosario (Fines Siglo XX a 2015)
    DOCTORADO DE LA UNIVERSIDAD DE BUENOS AIRES. Área ANTROPOLOGÍA. Facultad de Filosofía y Letras. “Salir de la blanquitud”: candombe afrouruguayo y categorías étnico-raciales en Paraná, Santa Fe y Rosario (fines siglo XX a 2015) DOCTORANDA: Julia Broguet DIRECTOR DE TESIS: Dr. Alejandro Frigerio CO-DIRECTORA DE TESIS: Dra. Laura Cardini CONSEJERA DE ESTUDIOS: Dra. Silvia Citro 1 RESUMEN. En esta investigación nos proponemos examinar cómo la expansión de una práctica cultural considerada "negra" comprende una creciente interpelación de la construcción de blanquedad del contexto cultural y social al que arriba. Se produce así un cuestionamiento de la narrativa dominante de Argentina como nación ―blanca‖ y ―europea‖ y un replanteo de las identificaciones étnicas y raciales de los sujetos involucrados. Ambas dimensiones convergen y se expresan en una lectura racializada de las espacialidades en diferentes niveles contextuales (urbano y regional); y en la aparición de una nueva mirada sobre la genealogía familiar, que envuelve rasgos de la propia corporalidad. A tal fin, investigamos la expansión del candombe afrouruguayo entre practicantes considerados ―blancos‖, pertenecientes a sectores medios de Paraná, Santa Fe y Rosario. De este modo, trabajamos con la circulación de prácticas culturales racializadas ―negras‖ que se expanden más allá de ―grupos negros‖ (Frigerio y Lamborghini, 2012). ABSTRACT. In this research we look into how the spread of a cultural practice that is considered ―black‖ requires questioning the construction of whiteness of the cultural and social context where it arrives. Thus, it rises a questioning regarding Argentina's dominant narrative as a ―white‖ and ―european‖ nation as well as rethinking the ethnic and racial identifications of the subjects involved.

Heller, PhD Hybridity and Identity in the Pan-American Jazz Piano Tradition William D. Scott, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2019 The term Latin jazz has often been employed by record labels, critics, and musicians alike to denote idioms ranging from Afro-Cuban music, to Brazilian samba and bossa nova, and more broadly to Latin American fusions with jazz. While many of these genres have coexisted under the Latin jazz heading in one manifestation or another, Panamanian pianist Danilo Pérez uses the expression “Pan-American jazz” to account for both the Afro-Cuban jazz tradition and non-Cuban Latin American fusions with jazz. Throughout this dissertation, I unpack the notion of Pan-American jazz from a variety of theoretical perspectives including Latinx identity discourse, transcription and musical analysis, and hybridity theory.

    Association Répertoire International d’Iconographie Musicale (RIdIM) 17TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE MUSIC AND DANCE IN VISUAL CULTURE Music Library of Greece “Lilian Voudouri” – The Friends of Music Society Athens, Greece | 5-7 October 2017 ABSTRACTS AND BIOGRAPHIES 29 KEYNOTE LECTURES Alexandra Goulaki Voutira Αριστοτέλειο Πανεπιστήμιο της Θεσσαλονίκης (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) Conventions, Formulae and Observable Reality in Ancient Musical Imagery The development of Musical Iconography connected with Ancient Greece has, in recent years, resulted in numerous studies that dynamically seek to revive the musical reality of this period. The large number of representations, especially in vase painting, has attracted the interest of many scholars, who have dealt systematically with various subjects, e.g. musical contests, cult scenes, banquets, education, gatherings of women, etc. An important development in the field of Musical Iconography is the systematic treatment of musical subjects, and the progress in treating the available information. There are increasing efforts to combine iconographic data with information from literary sources, with elements concerning the theory of music, and also with the remains of musical instruments, the study of which has witnessed considerable progress due to the re-examination of old and new finds. In this context, there is increasing awareness of the peculiarities of the material, especially vase paintings. The representations are not what we might call “realistic depictions” of musical themes. In most cases we have to work with scenes painted on mass-produced ware, based on a relatively limited repertory of motifs, subject to various limitations and conventions. Yet the painters—usually craftsmen rather than artists—had to deal with a subject matter that was not at all “mass produced”: musical instruments.
