  • Music and the American Civil War
    “LIBERTY’S GREAT AUXILIARY”: MUSIC AND THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR by CHRISTIAN MCWHIRTER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2009 Copyright Christian McWhirter 2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Music was almost omnipresent during the American Civil War. Soldiers, civilians, and slaves listened to and performed popular songs almost constantly. The heightened political and emotional climate of the war created a need for Americans to express themselves in a variety of ways, and music was one of the best. It did not require a high level of literacy and it could be performed in groups to ensure that the ideas embedded in each song immediately reached a large audience. Previous studies of Civil War music have focused on the music itself. Historians and musicologists have examined the types of songs published during the war and considered how they reflected the popular mood of northerners and southerners. This study utilizes the letters, diaries, memoirs, and newspapers of the 1860s to delve deeper and determine what roles music played in Civil War America. This study begins by examining the explosion of professional and amateur music that accompanied the onset of the Civil War. Of the songs produced by this explosion, the most popular and resonant were those that addressed the political causes of the war and were adopted as the rallying cries of northerners and southerners. All classes of Americans used songs in a variety of ways, and this study specifically examines the role of music on the home-front, in the armies, and among African Americans.

    AMS Boston 2019 Abstracts 48 Thursday Afternoon 2:15–3:45 AMS Boston 2019 Thursday Afternoon 2:15–3:45 Band Cultures Colin Roust (University of Kansas), Chair Schubert in America: An Examination of Band Programming in the Late Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries Kate Storhoff (Wake Forest University) American musical life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was a time of change in both repertory and performing forces. By the mid-1800s audiences enjoyed the works of European composers through the programming of American and European orchestra conductors, including Louis Jullien and Theodore Thomas. Among the composers they programmed was Franz Schubert, about whose life and works John Sullivan Dwight published an article in 1852 to fuel the mid-century public interest in the composer. This attention continued throughout the second half of the nineteenth century and into the twentieth. Though some audience members became familiar with Schubert through performances of his songs, chamber mu- sic, and the “Great C Major” and “Unfinished” symphonies in their original forms, many others were exposed to his music through arrangements for band. Examining where and how Schubert was programmed by two of the most prominent band- leaders of the time, John Philip Sousa and Edwin Franko Goldman, reveals insight into how Schubert was regarded by both conductors and audiences. In addition to program analysis, I consider three of the most popular surviving arrangements: Louis-Philippe Laurendeau’s arrangement of the two Marche Militaire (1900), Vin- cent Frank Safranek’s arrangement of the Ballet Music from Rosamunde (1919), and Lucien Cailliet’s arrangement of the first movement of the “Unfinished” Symphony (1938).
