BRIDWELL-BRINER, KATHRYN EILEEN, DMA the Horn In
BRIDWELL-BRINER, KATHRYN EILEEN, D.M.A. The Horn in America from Colonial Society to 1842: Performers, Instruments, and Repertoire. (2014) Directed by Dr. Randy Kohlenberg. 294 pp. The purpose of this study was to address an aspect of the history of the horn neglected in traditional horn scholarship—that of the horn in America from the development of colonial society (ca. 1700) to the early days of the antebellum era (ca. 1840). This choice of time period avoided the massive influx of foreign musicians and exponential growth of American musical activities after 1840, as well as that of the general population, as this information would become too unwieldy for anything but studies of individual cities, regions, or specific musical groups. This time frame also paralleled the popularity of the horn virtuoso in Europe given so much attention by horn scholars. Additionally, all information gathered through examination of sources has been compiled in tables and included in the appendices with the intention of providing a point of reference for others interested in the horn in early America. This survey includes a brief introduction, review of literature, the ways in which the horn was utilized in early America, the individuals and businesses that made or sold horns and horn-related accoutrements such as music, tutors, crooks, and mouthpieces as well as an examination of the body of repertoire gleaned from performances of hornists in early America.

Wainwright, Rufus (B
Wainwright, Rufus (b. 1973) by Linda Rapp Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2004, glbtq, inc. Rufus Wainwright. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Courtesy Dreamworks Records. Singer and songwriter Rufus Wainwright has built a successful career with witty lyrics and rich melodies that have earned him comparisons to Cole Porter and George Gershwin. Wainwright cites Al Jolson, Edith Piaf, and Nina Simone as artists who were among his early inspirations. Both music critics and Wainwright's loyal fans appreciate the structural complexity and lush orchestrations of his works. Described by Advocate reviewer Anderson Jones as "the thinking gay man's sex symbol," Wainwright composes and performs songs marked by intelligence, humor, and pathos. In his rendition, his songs are at once achingly plaintive and hip, their frank romanticism only barely mediated by a light dose of irony. Wainwright comes from a distinctly musical family. His father is American folk-singer and humorist Loudon Wainwright III, and his mother is Canadian folk-singer and songwriter Kate McGarrigle. Born July 22, 1973 in Rhinebeck, New York, Rufus Wainwright grew up in Montreal, where his mother made her home after his parents separated when he was three and subsequently divorced. Music has always been at the center of Wainwright's life. He began learning to play the piano at six and by his early teens was performing on tour with his mother, his aunt Anna McGarrigle, and his sister Martha Wainwright as the McGarrigle Sisters and Family. Wainwright wrote his first song, "I'm A-Runnin'," for the children's film Tommy Tricker and the Stamp Traveller (1988, directed by Michael Rubbo), for which his mother and aunt had been engaged to provide the music.

DVDs 35 Page 2 of 35 Introduction Gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender people have always participated in creating popular music. In recent years, the visibility of LGBTQ people in the music world has increased, and more popular music has been created that openly describes the LGBTQ experience. There has also been an increase in books and films related to LGBTQ visibility in popular music, both in fiction and nonfiction. This bibliography includes resources about gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender persons involved in the popular music field. The books have all been published in print, and many of them may also be found as e-books. Separate sections contain memoirs, novels, plays, and children’s and teen books. Several LGBT popular music-related DVDs are also listed. Each book and DVD has a link to the OCLC WorldCat record (when available) where you can see which libraries hold the item. Most of this resource is comprised of a discography of popular music recordings by LGBTQ artists. It is not meant to be complete, but many recordings still available in CD format for each artist are listed, and several are annotated. Many of these performers’ songs can now also be found on streaming music services and online digital music websites.

Exploring Rufus Wainwright's Emotional Vulnerability in Fan
ARTICLES “Saw You in the Dark”: Exploring Rufus Wainwright’s Emotional Vulnerability in Fan-Captured Live Performance Videos Stephanie Salerno Introduction On December 9, 2010, Canadian-American popular singer/songwriter Rufus Wainwright performed a solo show at the Egg in Albany, New York. Breaking from his usual popular performance practice that incorporated audience applause, between-song banter, and a set list comprised of old favourites and new tunes, he performed his 2010 album All Days Are Nights: Songs for Lulu as a complete classical song cycle, or a collection of art songs that are thematically connected through harmonic material, melodic motifs, text set to music, mood, or narrative.1 As a strict solo piano/voice song cycle, the Lulu performances were different from his previous tours, largely because of the personal circumstances surrounding the recording and touring of the album. Wainwright’s mother, Québécoise folk-singer Kate McGarrigle, suffered a rare sarcoma in the late 2000s, passing away in January 2010.2 The timing of her illness and the emotional stress of saying goodbye to a loved one profoundly influenced Wainwright’s sixth studio album. This was not only because it was the last completed album his mother would ever hear, but because it became a vehicle through which Wainwright grieved and processed her death. One fan in attendance captured nearly the entire December 9 show on a Flip Video camcorder and uploaded all but two songs of the twelve-song cycle to YouTube via five separate videos. In doing so, this fan and YouTube user granted individuals lacking access or means to see Wainwright and experience the song cycle in person a digital opportunity via a screen and an Internet connection.

Queer Performativity and Grieving Through Music in the Work of Rufus Wainwright
TRUE LOVES, DARK NIGHTS: QUEER PERFORMATIVITY AND GRIEVING THROUGH MUSIC IN THE WORK OF RUFUS WAINWRIGHT Stephanie Salerno A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2016 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Christian Coons Graduate Faculty Representative Kimberly Coates Katherine Meizel © 2016 Stephanie Salerno All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This dissertation studies the cultural significance of Canadian-American singer/songwriter Rufus Wainwright’s (b. 1973) album All Days Are Nights: Songs for Lulu (Decca, 2010). Lulu was written, recorded, and toured in the years surrounding the illness and eventual death of his mother, beloved Québécoise singer/songwriter Kate McGarrigle. The album, performed as a classical song cycle, stands out amongst Wainwright’s musical catalogue as a hybrid composition that mixes classical and popular musical forms and styles. More than merely a collection of songs about death, loss, and personal suffering, Lulu is a vehicle that enabled him to grieve through music. I argue that Wainwright’s performativity, as well as the music itself, can be understood as queer, or as that which transgresses traditional or expected boundaries. In this sense, Wainwright’s artistic identity and musical trajectory resemble a rhizome, extending in multiple directions and continually expanding to create new paths and outcomes. Instances of queerness reveal themselves in the genre hybridity of the Lulu song cycle, the emotional vulnerability of Wainwright’s vocal performance, the deconstruction of gender norms in live performance, and the circulation of affect within the performance space.
