Download or read book The Battle Hymn of the Republic written by John Stauffer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-09 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was sung at Ronald Reagan's funeral, and adopted with new lyrics by labor radicals. John Updike quoted it in the title of one of his novels, and George W. Bush had it performed at the memorial service in the National Cathedral for victims of September 11, 2001. Perhaps no other song has held such a profoundly significant--and contradictory--place in America's history and cultural memory than the "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." In this sweeping study, John Stauffer and Benjamin Soskis show how this Civil War tune has become an anthem for cause after radically different cause. The song originated in antebellum revivalism, with the melody of the camp-meeting favorite, "Say Brothers, Will You Meet Us." Union soldiers in the Civil War then turned it into "John Brown's Body." Julia Ward Howe, uncomfortable with Brown's violence and militancy, wrote the words we know today. Using intense apocalyptic and millenarian imagery, she captured the popular enthusiasm of the time, the sense of a climactic battle between good and evil; yet she made no reference to a particular time or place, allowing it to be exported or adapted to new conflicts, including Reconstruction, sectional reconciliation, imperialism, progressive reform, labor radicalism, civil rights movements, and social conservatism. And yet the memory of the song's original role in bloody and divisive Civil War scuttled an attempt to make it the national anthem. The Daughters of the Confederacy held a contest for new lyrics, but admitted that none of the entries measured up to the power of the original. "The Battle Hymn" has long helped to express what we mean when we talk about sacrifice, about the importance of fighting--in battles both real and allegorical--for the values America represents. It conjures up and confirms some of our most profound conceptions of national identity and purpose. And yet, as Stauffer and Soskis note, the popularity of the song has not relieved it of the tensions present at its birth--tensions between unity and discord, and between the glories and the perils of righteous enthusiasm. If anything, those tensions became more profound. By following this thread through the tapestry of American history, The Battle Hymn of the Republic illuminates the fractures and contradictions that underlie the story of our nation.

Book excerpt: “With Audiotopia, Kun emerges as a pre-eminent analyst, interpreter, and theorist of inter-ethnic dialogue in US music, literature, and visual art. This book is a guide to how scholarship will look in the future—the first fully realized product of a new generation of scholars thrown forth by tumultuous social ferment and eager to talk about the world that they see emerging around them.”—George Lipsitz, author of Time Passages: Collective Memory and American Popular Culture "The range and depth of Audiotopia is thrilling. It's not only that Josh Kun knows so much-it's that he knows what to make of what he knows."—Greil Marcus, author of Lipstick Traces: A Secret History of the 20th Century "The way Josh Kun writes about what he hears, the way he unravels word, sound, and power is breathtaking, provocative, and original. A bold, expansive, and lyrical book, Audiotopia is a record of crossings, textures, tangents, and ideas you will want to play again and again."—Jeff Chang, author of Can't Stop Won't Stop: A History of the Hip-Hop Generation

Download or read book Secular Hymnal written by Secretary Michael and published by . This book was released on 2014-12-22 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether we're aware of it or not, we all know plenty of hymns. They're part of our country's soundtrack. In addition to being in churches, they can be heard in movies and many other places. The Secular Hymnal is for anybody who enjoys singing, either alone or with a group. All the music is written in 4-part harmony (soprano, alto, tenor, bass), each on its own staff. If you are singing alone, just sing the main melody (the soprano part). Supportive chord symbols are provided. If you are a family, or a quartet of friends, or a choir, you'll find the SATB parts easy to read. If you wish to form a singing group with your family or friends, there's no better way to make that wish come true than with these hymns. We've even added SOL-FA syllables to some of the songs so that singers can learn to sing solfege. When it comes to learning about music, hymn tunes are wonderful teaching tools. They are so tidy with their logical structure and simple rhythms. Being so small they are easy to dissect. We can take them apart voice by voice, bar by bar, beat by beat. We can study their structures, their proportions, their harmonies and the counterpoint between the voices. Just page through a few of the hymns. You'll see that most are only 16 bars long. Those 16 bars are divided evenly into two periods (8 bars each). Each of the periods is divided evenly into two phrases (4 bars each). It's so textbook perfect! We can even exchange parts between different hymns - like a Mister Potato-Head! And the truths that we learn from studying little hymns can be applied to oratorios, symphonies and other large works of music. Even though the music is important, teachers and others sometimes feel uncomfortable about singing hymns outside of the church walls. The traditional verses were not written for the general public or for the school classroom. They were written for a very different purpose - for worship in the churches. To address this situation, we have provided the old music with rich, new, inclusive lyrics. While nothing can replace the grandeur of the original verses, these new ones were carefully crafted and have a gentle beauty and intelligence of their own. This book contains 60 famous hymn tunes with inclusive secular verses. Previously published in five volumes of a dozen hymns each, this book contains the entire collection.
