It considers some basic questions: to what music do people around the globe listen? What do they watch? How do they access music? Through the study of specific cultures and repertories, students will explore popular music in various cultural contexts in the United States, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The goal is to give students a broad understanding of what exactly is meant by popular music, how it can be defined, and the differences and similarities among diverse popular music traditions. This anthology is designed to: • Foment understanding and appreciation of the historical evolution of musical style, genre, and performance in various cultural contexts; • Encourage the recognition and understanding of political, sociological, and cultural forces on music throughout the globe; • Foster an understanding of the evolution of popular music in various cultural contexts; • Examine local, regional, and global forces on the development of music and popular culture. By the end of this anthology, students will be able to: • Evaluate the impact of political, sociological, and cultural forces on popular music and the arts; • Analyze and understand political and social forces in contemporary and historical popular music; • Discuss the complex relationship among race, ethnicity, and class in the development of culture; • Describe how technology has shaped the performance, composition, and consumption of music. vii What is Popular Music? This book is dedicated to global popular music. This brings up several questions: What is pop- ular? What is global? How can we define either? What are the connections? How does popular music differ from classical? From folk? What separates classical, folk, and popular music is in many ways hard to define, but one thing that distinguishes all three is transmission: how music goes from person to person, from place to place, from time to time. Classical Music Classical music in most music cultures has some specific characteristics not present in folk or popular music. In most cases, in the Americas, Europe, Japan, India, or any other place with a strong classical music tradition, classical music tends to be the music of the elite. This may be the economic, social, or intellectual elite, a population that is generally educated and cultured. Classical music transmission in Western music culture is traditionally by means of notation, but this is not the case in many other classical music traditions, most of which do not have music notation system. Indian classical music, for example, differs in the North and South, but in either case this music is transmitted orally, not by means of notation. There is no traditional notation system in Indian music, although the Western notation system is used by many today. However, it does not function particularly well, due to the differences in scale and tuning in India compared to Western music. There is a developed and rigorous training system for Indian classical music, but it is learned by rote from master to apprentice, and although there is a standard repertory in Southern India (Northern Indian classical music is improvised based on very strict rules), pieces are passed down orally and undoubtedly have been subjected to changes due to this means of transmission. Another common element in classical music traditions is training, which is for the most part by means of a master-apprentice relationship. In the Western classical music system, the study of classical music often begins at a young age, taking lessons either in school or with a private teacher. Who in today’s day and age doesn’t know someone who takes or has taken private lessons, be it for piano, singing, clarinet or what have you? This is also the case in many non-Western classical music traditions. For example, Indian children often take lessons with a guru, a teacher specializing in singing or one of many Indian classical instruments, usually with lessons in a group setting, studying for years by means of oral instruction. The common thread in all classical music is this idea of instruction, establishing a separate musician class, separating performer and audience, a phenomenon not common in folk music traditions in which audience and performer are often the same group of people. Folk Music “Folk music is music that has been submitted to the process of oral transmission; it is the product of evolution and is dependent on the circumstances of continuity, variation, and selection” (Karpeles 1955, 6; italics added): viii • “Continuity, which links the present with the past; • Variation, which springs from the creative impulse of the individual or the group; • Selection by the community, which determines the form in which folk music survives” (International Folk Music Council 1955, 23). This definition leaves out the origin of folk music, which in Western music evolved from rudimentary beginnings uninfluenced by art or classical music. It is also “music which has originated with an individual composer [or composers] and has subsequently been absorbed into the unwritten, living tradition of a community” (International Folk Music Council 1955). When a tune passes into oral tradition, it becomes subject to the forces of evolution and con- forms to the demands of continuity, variation, and selection. Folk music is not static but always changing. Often folk music is of communal authorship, in which time is a factor. It is constantly altered through time by means of oral transmission in the great, cosmic game of telephone whereby one person says something which gets passed from person to person, changing as it is transmitted; in folk music, this telephone game is from person to person, community to community, through time and space. It changes by evolution, not revolution. Art music and folk music exist side by side, and there is often an interaction between the two; one has only to listen to the music of Aaron Copland or Bela Bartok to understand this connection. Folk music informs art music, and vice-versa. Some scholars connect folk music to rural culture, and in many traditions, this seems to be the case. In much of Europe, for example, folk music is connected for the most part to rural areas, where it is passed down from generation to generation, with variations having to do with the particular villages; the village could have the same repertory with local changes or might have a completely different repertory or even style. In Norway, folk fiddling traditions, style, and repertory vary greatly from village to village, sometimes only a few miles apart.

Despite their close economic relationship since 1965, their conflicting historic and political relationships and deep-seated prejudice against each other have continued. The Korean government’s official ban on the direct import of Japanese cultural products existed until 1997, but various kinds of Japanese cultural products, including popular music, found their way into Korea through various legal and illegal routes and influenced contemporary Korean popular culture. Since 1998, under Korea’s Open- Door Policy, legally available Japanese popular cultural products became widely consumed, especially among young Koreans fascinated by Japan’s quintessentially postmodern popular culture, despite lingering resentments towards Japan.

Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2005 To Harold Ashenfelter and Amul Desai Preface A crowded, red double-decker bus pulls into the depot and comes to a rest amidst swirling dust and smoke. Its passengers slowly alight and begin to disperse into the muggy evening air. I step down from the bus and look left and right, trying to get my bearings. This is only my second day in Bombay and my first to venture out of the old city center and into the Northern suburbs. I approach a small circle of bus drivers and ticket takers, all clad in loose-fitting brown shirts and pants. They point me in the direction of my destination, the JVPD grounds, and I join the ranks of people marching west along a dusty, narrowing road. Before long, we are met by a colorful procession of drummers and dancers honoring the goddess Durga through thundering music and vigorous dance. The procession is met with little more than a few indifferent glances by tired workers walking home after a long day and grueling commute.

Dive in, explore, and find a style of music that speaks to you in a way might never have heard otherwise! North America Blues https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-KluFB9A8M The Blues is a genre and form of music that started out in the Deep South of the United States sometime around the 1870s. It was created by African Americans from roots in African musical traditions, African American work songs, and spirituals – an oral tradition that imparted Christian values while also describing the terrible hardships of slavery. Early blues often took the form of a loose story or narrative, usually relating to the discrimination and other hardships African Americans faced. The Blues form, which is now found throughout jazz, rhythm and blues, and rock and roll, is characterized by a call-and-response pattern, the blues scales, and specific song structure – of which, the 12-bar blues has become the most common. The Blues is also characterized by its lamenting lyrics, distinctive bass lines, and unique instrumentation. The earliest traditional blues verses used a single line repeated four times. It wouldn’t be until the early part of the 20th century that the most common blues structure currently used became standard: the AAB pattern.

This thesis will explore her performances for Coke Studio Pakistan through the lens of gender theory. I seek to examine Parveen’s blurring of gender, Sufism’s disruptive nature, and how Coke Studio plays into the two. I think through the categories of Islam, Sufism, Pakistan, and their relationship to each other to lead into my analysis on Parveen’s disruption in each category. I argue that Parveen holds a unique position in Pakistan and Sufism that cannot be explained in binary terms.

  • The Role of the Beatles in Popularizing Indian Music and Culture in the West Rodrigo Guerrero Faculty Advisors: Dr
    32 The Role of The Beatles in Popularizing Indian Music and Culture in the West Rodrigo Guerrero Faculty Advisors: Dr. Charles Brewer, Dr. Sarah Eyerly, and Dr. Douglass Seaton College of Music Abstract: The Beatles were responsible for several long-lasting innovations that shaped the history of pop music and Western culture in general. As a British rock band that dominated the popular music scene during the 1960s, they made one of their most significant, yet sometimes overlooked, contributions through the incorporation of elements from Indian culture in their music and lyrics. This essay discusses the role that the Beatles played in introducing and popularizing certain features of Indian culture, and specifically Indian music, in the Western hemisphere. I first describe their relationship with Indian culture. In this section, I bring forth questions, such as why they became interested in this culture, why they decided to go on a spiritual retreat to India, and how the trip influenced their thoughts about foreign culture. After that, this essay analyzes the influence of Indian culture and Indian music on the Beatles’ lyrics and music, respectively. Finally, I will illuminate the lasting effect that this cross- fertilization had in subsequent years. he 1960s was a decade of experimentation in popular music. The Beatles, the British rock band that dominated the popular music scene Tduring this decade, was responsible for long-lasting innovations that would shape the history and style of pop music and Western culture. One of their most significant, yet overlooked, contributions to Western culture was the incorporation of Indian musical elements into their songs.

  • Hindi Film Songs in the Post-Mtv Era: Analyzing the New Lyricism
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences (IJHSS) ISSN(P): 2319-393X; ISSN(E): 2319-3948 Vol. 4, Issue 2, Mar 2015, 13-20 © IASET HINDI FILM SONGS IN THE POST-MTV ERA: ANALYZING THE NEW LYRICISM MIHIR BHOLEY Associate Senior, Faculty National Institute of Design PG Campus, Gandhinagar, India ABSTRACT Songs, dance and melodrama are idiosyncratic to Hindi Cinema which has a formidable presence in South Asia. Over the years both Hindi cinema and songs have crossed their native boundary and become a global cultural product. In recent years aggressive marketing of Hindi cinema in Europe and America and their easy access through internet have earned Hindi songs new popularity in the western world too. However, there’s also a perceptible qualitative change in the lyrics over the last few decades. The lyrical, poetic, aesthetic and emotional type songs of yesteryears are being overshadowed by a large number of songs which sound trivial in comparison. This phenomenon may also be a concern of ethnomusicology. Principal objective of this paper is to examine the changes in the lyrical quality of Hindi film music in the post-MTV era through a comparative analysis of the songs over the decades and to explore the change in their lyrical and musical quality. KEYWORDS: Cinema, Ethnomusicology, Lyrics, Music, MTV, Natyasastra INTRODUCTION Summary It’ll be naïve to judge Indian popular cinema without songs. They’ reconsidered essential to the creative genre called cinema in India. Film songs or filmi geet in India are both the creator and product of popular culture. Considering creation of rasa (sentiment) and bhava (emotion) essential for natya (drama) in the classical Indian tradition, popular cinema, the modern avatar of natya banks heavily on songs to achieve that; albeit not entirely in conformity with the classical treaties of Natyasastra (composed circa 200 BCE and 200 CE) .

  • SANGAM, a CONFLUENCE Aditya Yogesh Desai, Masters of Fine Arts
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: SANGAM, A CONFLUENCE Aditya Yogesh Desai, Masters of Fine Arts, 2012 Thesis Directed by: Professor Howard Norman Department of English Sangam, Sanskrit for “confluence,” is a novel set across three storylines, all connected by a single ghazal poem, the evolution of which spans the lives and times of three men. In medieval India, Sufi poet Amir Khusrow arrives at the ruins of an ancient Hindu Temple, seeking inspiration and revival for his work; centuries later, at the turn of India’s independence from Britain, young lawyer Jayant finds his idealism tested in against the nation’s messy beginnings; in the present day, a young Indian-American disc jockey navigates the night club scene, hoping to become the modern music star. The novel is meant to mimic how music is sampled, re-appropriated, and remixed over time. In the same way songs are matched by a DJ for beats and melody, so too are the themes and emotional arcs of each man’s story line meant to echo one another, and resonate as a whole.
