Recommended: Short note on Culture and music

From reading Timothy Rice’s book, I have many new outlooks on how my group project should be approached. It is important for all of the members of the group to keep an open mind to the various cultures that music can come from and how it is best to convey and give credit to their origins. This will be especially important with the Henebry wax cylinders as we must keep in mind what time frame they were created in, their purpose during their time of use, and also to give credit to those who allowed us to view them. It will also be important for us to promote the wax cylinders in an appropriate manner which will be accepted by those who have connections with the wax cylinders in UCC, aswell as those who preserve them.

  • Ethnomusicology Summary

    974 Words  | 2 Pages

    Ethnomusicology: a short introduction is about describing the growing discipline of how ethnomusicology researchers are going about studying different music from around the world, looking for perceptions in both humanity and music. Ethnomusicologists believe that all people are musical, not just people that label themselves as “musicians” and that there is music in all beings. This thinking causes a lot of debate in which ethnomusicologists argue that we must first study all forms of music such as its Geographic’s and history in order to answer any questions. Not only are traditional forms of music acknowledged but also more contemporary musical forms.

  • Sweet Lullllaby Of World Music Case Study

    1388 Words  | 3 Pages

    Over the course of history, music has developed from a personal, academic pursuit to an extension of a global marketplace and an attribute of this global community. In order to better address this conversation and the surrounding idea, Feld utilizes the platform he has developed to pose the argument that music has long been cultivated as a means of communication and interaction. This relationship is developed and analyzed as a case study in this article, which happens to be in discussing a traditional lullaby first developed in the Solomon Islands, which was in turn recorded by a European pop group that sold millions of copies of a rendition of the song. Furthermore, the article goes to show the trend of music to be redistributed and developed in the sense that it is later reused by a popular jazz musician in Europe. Feld then begs the question about the nature of the redistribution of music and whether this facilitates a hybridization of music or an alienation and artistic degradation of the original work for the indigenous artists.

  • How Musical Is Man By John Blacking

    636 Words  | 2 Pages

    “How Musical is Man?” was published in 1974. This book was written by John Blacking, a musician turned social anthropologist. His goal in writing this ethnography, and several other papers during this same time period, was to compare the experience of music-making that takes place within different cultures and societies throughout the world. In this book, he discusses and describes the musicology of the Venda people in South Africa. Though he does go to Africa to research and learn about the Venda people and their music, he specifically states that his book is “not a scholarly study of human musicality” (ix), but rather it is a summary (written from his point of view), which is both expressive and entertaining, of several different issues and ideas that he has seemingly been contemplating for some time.

  • Comparison of African, Indonesian, and Indian Music

    669 Words  | 2 Pages

    Throughout the semester, various styles of music and the aspects of culture associated with these styles have been analyzed. Musical elements such as dynamics, texture, form, timbre, melody, instruments, etc., have been used to thoroughly explore each kind of music from different areas of the world, with an emphasis in music from Africa, India and Indonesia. These aspects of music go far beyond just music itself. Culture also plays a huge role in music and the accompanying musical elements. Each country and culture has a different style and distinctiveness that add to what makes the music of that certain culture unique. Music in Africa may differ dramatically from music in Indonesia or India not only due to those certain elements but also due to how it is interpreted by people and what it represents for those people. In addition to this, what one may consider music in one culture may not be music to another. These differences have been made apparent in the several demonstrations that we have been exposed to in class.

  • The Role Of Music In The Aymara And Prespare Albanian Culture?

    810 Words  | 2 Pages

    In many countries and communities around the world, music plays a vital role in cultural identity. Traditions and beliefs are passed down not only through the music itself, but also the act of making and engaging in music, much like the behavior section of the Merriam Tripartite Model. Though it may not be a perfect model of the beliefs and behaviors of the times, music continues to have a dialectical relationship with communities, granting outsiders some insight to important features of the people. These can range from their history to their ideal values, teaching others and impressing upon them (both consciously and not) the ideas they deem to be most valuable. Music is a critical cornerstone in both the Aymara and Prespare Albanian cultures,
