  • Pan African Agency and the Cultural Political Economy of the Black City: the Case of the African World Festival in Detroit
    PAN AFRICAN AGENCY AND THE CULTURAL POLITICAL ECONOMY OF THE BLACK CITY: THE CASE OF THE AFRICAN WORLD FESTIVAL IN DETROIT By El-Ra Adair Radney A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree African American and African Studies - Doctor of Philosophy 2019 ABSTRACT PAN AFRICAN AGENCY AND THE CULTURAL POLITICAL ECONOMY OF THE BLACK CITY: THE CASE OF THE AFRICAN WORLD FESTIVAL IN DETROIT By El-Ra Adair Radney Pan African Agency and the Cultural Political Economy of the Black City is a dissertation study of Detroit that characterizes the city as a ‘Pan African Metropolis’ within the combined histories of Black Metropolis theory and theories of Pan African cultural nationalism. The dissertation attempts to reconfigure Saint Clair Drake and Horace Cayton’s Jr’s theorization on the Black Metropolis to understand the intersectional dynamics of culture, politics, and economy as they exist in a Pan African value system for the contemporary Black city. Differently from the classic Black Metropolis study, the current study incorporates African heritage celebration as a major Black life axes in the maintenance of the Black city’s identity. Using Detroit as a case study, the study contends that through their sustained allegiance to African/Afrocentric identity, Black Americans have enhanced the Black city through their creation of a distinctive cultural political economy, which manifests in what I refer to throughout the study as a Pan African Metropolis. I argue that the Pan African Metropolis emerged more visibly and solidified itself during Detroit’s Black Arts Movement in the 1970s of my youth (Thompson, 1999).

Winter itself has seemed a physical manifestation of the current economic crisis, a reflection of our frozen state of affairs. Personally, I haven’t been allowing myself the luxury of actually s believing this winter has really gone; every time I’ve done so in the past there’s been one or more big snow dumps to dig out from. It gives me that dreaded Charlie Brown/ Lucy/football feeling, like I’ve been had yet again. But this year I’m going to choose to believe it’s truly spring, in spite of the inherent dangers. The temptation to grab onto something— anything—that feels positive and redemptive is too strong.

Contact: [email protected] CHAPTER Srx Improvisation in Latin Dance Music: History and Style PETER MANUEL Latin dance music constitutes one of the most dynamic and sophisticated urban popular music traditions in the Americas. Improvisation plays an important role in this set of genres, and its styles are sufficiently distinctive, complex, and internally significant as to merit book-length treatment along the lines of Paul Berliner's volume Thinking in Jazz (1994 ). To date, however, the subject of Latin improvisation has received only marginal and cursory analytical treat­ ment, primarily in recent pedagogical guidebooks and videos. 1 While a single chijpter such as this can hardly do justice to the subject, an attempt will be made here to sketch some aspects of the historical development of Latin im­ provisational styles, to outline the sorts of improvisation occurring in main­ stream contemporary Latin music, and to take a more focused look at improvi­ sational styles of one representative instrument, the piano. An ultimate and only partially realized goal in this study is to hypothesize a unified, coherent aesthetic of Latin improvisation in general.

  • Ned Sublette Juan De Marcos Adalberto Álvarez Dr. Olavo Alén
    No pianist has played on more records that all of postrevolutionary Cuba sang along with than Pupy. And at the same time, he's a direct link to that golden age of Arsenio and Chappotín. Ned Sublette author of Cuba and Its Music: From the First Drums to the Mambo El modo de interpretar de Pupy Pedroso constituye el crossover entre la música bailable contemporanea cubana y los esquemas tradicionales heredados de los grandes pianistas soneros de los cincuentas, en particular, de su padre, Nené, quien fuera una de las luminarias de la época. Su estilo inovador, su talento para componer y orquestar y su sagacidad para lograr la preferencia pública en un país tan competitivo como Cuba, lo situan en uno de los lugares mas destacados del ambiente musical de los últimos cuarenta anos. Definitivamente Pupy, junto a José Luis “Changuito” Quintana y Juan Formell, forma parte del nucleo generador del sonido Van Van, que por tanto tiempo ha satisfecho las exigencias de los “casineros” mas puristas. Juan de Marcos composer, tresero, leader of The Afro‐Cuban All‐Stars Pupy, es poseedor de un estilo peculiar a la hora de tocar el piano, tumbaos de gran fuerza cargados de un estilo sonero indiscutible hacen de Pupy uno de los pianistas de Son mas importantes de los últimos años.” Adalberto Álvarez pianist, composer, founder of Son 14 and Adalberto Álvarez y su Son Indiscutiblemente César, Pupy, Pedroso es uno de los grandes pianistas de la música cubana de todos los tiempos. Su nombre puede ocupar un merecido lugar junto al de Luis ‘Lilí’ Martínez Griñán o Antonio María Romeu, pues al igual que ellos hicieron anteriormente, él también transformó la sonoridad del piano dentro de las proyecciones estéticas por donde cursaba la más auténtica cubanía.
