CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT No. 12–96. Argued February 27, 2013—Decided June 25, 2013 The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was enacted to address entrenched racial discrimination in voting, “an insidious and pervasive evil which had been perpetuated in certain parts of our country through unremitting and ingenious defiance of the Constitution.” South Carolina v. Kat- zenbach, 383 U. S. 301, 309. Section 2 of the Act, which bans any “standard, practice, or procedure” that “results in a denial or abridgement of the right of any citizen . to vote on account of race or color,” 42 U. S. C. §1973(a), applies nationwide, is permanent, and is not at issue in this case. Other sections apply only to some parts of the country. Section 4 of the Act provides the “coverage formula,” de- fining the “covered jurisdictions” as States or political subdivisions that maintained tests or devices as prerequisites to voting, and had low voter registration or turnout, in the 1960s and early 1970s.

Ferrandino NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: h+p:/,www.mtosmt.org,issues,mto.17.23-2,mto.17.23.4.ferrandino.php 3E45 RDS: Roc6 Analysis, Pop Music, Voice Leading, David Bowie, Text and Music ABSTRACT: In this paper, I explore how voice-leading analysis can illuminate text-music relations at both structural and foreground levels in three songs by David Bowie: ;Life on Mars,” ;Five 4ears,” and ;5e Are the Dead.” The analyses provide a way of relating seemingly disparate stylistic examples through text-music relations applicable to a wide variety of roc6 music. Received May 2017 Volume 01, Number 2, December 00.7 Copyright > 00.7 Society for Music Theory Voice Leading and Text-Music Relations in David Bowie’s Early Songs ?1..@ Over the course of his five-decade career, David Bowie experimented with diverse musical genres, from fol6 and roc6 to soul, Bazz, and electronica. Though stylistically disparate, many of his songs exhibit consistent musical and lyrical connections that lend continuity to his uniDue compositional voice. For instance, there are several cases where a trac6’s tonic is purposefully obfuscated, a compositional techniDue that Mar6 Spicer calls “absent tonic,” which supports lyrical descriptions of alienation ( Spicer 2016 ). Such relationships between text and music can be illuminated through the use of reductive voice-leading graphs. Structural musical components can be contextually compared to the text of the trac6 as well as intertextually to other trac6s.
