  • Mandolin Playing in Minneapolis and St. Paul Wooden Boxes
    amy kreitzer Sweet Harmonies from Little Mandolin Playing in Minneapolis and St. Paul Wooden Boxes At the close of the nineteenth century, a new and distinctive sound caught the ears of Minnesotans rang - ing from poor Italian immigrants to affluent young men. The captivating sound came from a small, eight- stringed wooden instrument called the mandolin. While modern listeners associate it with bluegrass and folk music, a hundred years ago mandolins were welcomed in the realms of classi - cal and popular music. The Albert Bellson Mandolin Quartet, late 1930s: (clockwise from lower left) Bellson and Wallace Between 1890 and 1920 , the golden Ziebarth with mandolins, Clifton Peterson with age of the mandolin, traveling concert mandocello, and Vergel Vanzora with mandola 219 artists, vaudeville performers, and A round-back Italian mandolin, advertised for $25 in a local teachers inspired thousands of P.

  • “Covering” the Bluesman from a Distance
    Introduction In many ways, my journey towards this thesis topic began with my brother’s music collection. Throughout my teens he would introduce me to a wide range of local and international acts, many of which were influenced by African-American blues artists. This influence is evident in both their construction of sound and the old songs that they rerecorded. From there I began tracing musical influences from song credits and interview excerpts—a path often travelled by musicians and fans alike—that would eventually lead me to an appreciation of blues music. The penultimate step towards this topic came in the form of my honours thesis—a creative project that involved rerecording several tracks from the catalogue of an early Australian country music artist, one of which was titled “Blue Mountain Blues”.1 From there I turned to blues music in Australia. Initially conceived as a history of “Australian blues”, it became apparent that this proposed sub-genre struggled to unify and explain the disparate musical styles contained therein. Although each artist was clearly addressing the musical characteristics and influences I had come to recognise as “blues music”, it all sounded different. In the meantime, I developed a keen interest in a fellow colleague’s thesis topic that addressed the role of “covers” within the Australian music industry (Giuffre, 2005). My epiphany—and catalyst for the current thesis topic—eventually presented itself while viewing a live performance from Peter Green Splinter Group. The concert was split into two courses: an acoustic entrée featuring several Robert Johnson “covers”; and, an electric main with side dishes of early Fleetwood Mac material—the band Green had help found many years ago.
