Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of the Folk-Song Society, Vol. 3: 1908-1909 The Executive Committee reports with pleasure the steady growth of the Folk-Song Society. During the year which ended May 31st, 1908, thirty-five new members have been admitted, and, although the Society has lost thirteen subscribers through resignation or death, it has at present two hundred and thirty-six members. It is with deepest regret that the Committee has to record the death of the eminent musicians, Dr. Joseph Joachim and Dr. Edvard Grieg, who honoured the Society not only with their membership but with their sympathy and encouragement. Three other members, Mrs. Rafe Leycester, Dr. J. Culwick and Dr. F. J. Sawyer, have also passed away, all of whom were actively interested in folk-music. Much excellent work has been done during the past year in collecting folk-songs and dances, and in popularising them by publication and performance. The following list, which does not claim to be exhaustive, shows in what parts of England members have collected since the last Report was issued: - Bedfordshire: Miss L. Edna Walter. Dorset: Miss L.E. Walter and Mr. H. E. D. Hammond. Derbyshire: Mr. C. Sharp. Devonshire and Gloucestershire: Mr. Percy Grainger, Mr. Harry Piggott, Mr. C. Sharp. Hampshire: Dr. G. B. Gardiner. Herefordshire: Mrs. Leather. Lancashire: Miss Annie G. Gilchrist. Lincolnshire: Mr. P. Grainger. London: Miss L. Broadwood, Mr. P. Grainger, and Mr. C. Sharp. Middlesex: Mr. P. Grainger. Norfolk: Dr. Ralph Vaughan-Williams. Oxfordshire: Mr. C. Sharp. Shropshire: Mr. George Kaye-Butterworth. Somerset: Mr. C. Sharp. Suffolk: Dr. R. VaughanWilliams. Sussex: Mr. G. Kaye-Butterworth, Mr. Walter Ford, Mr. C. Sharp, Dr. R. Vaughan-Williams. Worcestershire: Mr. P. Grainger. In Scotland, Mr. Gavin Greig and the Rev. J. B. Duncan have continued their important work of collecting on behalf of the New Spalding Club of Aberdeen, chiefly, but by no means solely, from singers in the north-east of Scotland (Aberdeen, Banff, Kincardine, etc.) Mr. J. A. Fuller-Maitland and Mr. G. GrahamPeel have noted Gaelic songs from singers of Sutherland. Miss Lucy Broadwood has collected Gaelic songs in Inverness-shire, and from Gaelic-speaking Highlanders in London, besides noting songs in Peebles-shire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Association of Recorded Sound Collections Awards for Excellence Best Research in the General History of Recorded Sound (2000) The invention of the cylinder phonograph at the end of the nineteenth century opened up a new world for cultural research. Indeed, Edison's talking machine became one of the basic tools of anthropology. It not only equipped researchers with the means of preserving folk songs but it also enabled them to investigate a wide spectrum of distinct vocal expressions in the emerging fields of anthropology and folklore. Ethnographers grasped its huge potential and fanned out through regional America to record rituals, stories, word lists, and songs in isolated cultures. From the outset the federal government helped fuel the momentum to record cultures that were at risk of being lost. Through the Bureau of American Ethnology, the Smithsonian Institution took an active role in preserving native heritage. It supported projects to make phonographic documentation of American Indian language, music, and rituals before developing technologies and national expansion might futher undermine them. This study of the early phonograph's impact shows traditional ethnography being transformed, for attitudes of both ethnographers and performers were reshaped by this exciting technology. In the presence of the phonograph both fieldwork and the materials collected were revolutionized. By radically altering the old research modes, the phonograph brought the disciplines of anthropology and folklore into the modern era. At first the instrument was as strange and new to the fieldworkers as it was to their subjects. To some the first encounter with the phonograph was a deeply unsettling experience. When it was demonstrated in 1878 before members of the National Academy of Sciences, several members of the audience fainted. Even its inventor was astonished. Of his first successful test of his tinfoil phonograph, Thomas A. Edison said, "I was never taken so aback in my life." The cylinders that have survived from these times offer an unrivaled resource not only for contemporary scholarship but also for a grassroots renaissance of cultural and religious values. In tracing the historical interplay of the talking machine with field research, A Spiral Way underscores the natural adaptablity of cultural study to this new technology.

Book Synopsis The Fellowship of Song by : Ginette Dunn
Download or read book The Fellowship of Song written by Ginette Dunn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1980. Song is perhaps the strongest form of traditional culture. Its vigour and energy represent the power of the community from which it springs. This book focuses on traditional singing in two small English villages. It studies in detail an activity which goes to the core of the communal life in any village and demonstrates how song becomes the lifeblood of the traditions of rural life. In many ways traditional singing is highly subversive because its practice is an affirmation of community and a denial of the fragmentation of modern society. The songs sung, those remembered, the singers now dead whose lives are recalled each time an old favourite is performed, all connect the present with the past. The primary aesthetic concern within these singing traditions is that a man should sing, whatever the objective quality of his performance; and a song should tell a good story. The individual singer assumes a special role in performance since he becomes spokesman for a group and gives voice not only to personal but also to social concerns, dynamics and emotions.

Book Synopsis Beyond Jerusalem: Music in the Women's Institute, 1919–1969 by : Lorna Gibson
Download or read book Beyond Jerusalem: Music in the Women's Institute, 1919–1969 written by Lorna Gibson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music in the Women's Institute has become stereotyped by the ritualistic singing of Jerusalem at monthly meetings. Indeed, Jerusalem has had an important role within the organization, and provides a valuable means within which to assess the organization's relationship with women's suffrage and the importance of rurality in the Women's Institute's identity. However, this book looks beyond Jerusalem by examining the full range of music making within the organization and locates its significance within a wider historical-cultural context. The Institute's promotion of conducting - a regular part of its musical activity since the 1930s - is discussed within the context of embodying overtly feminist sentiments. Lorna Gibson concludes that a redefinition of the term 'feminism' is needed and the concept of 'gendered spheres' of conducting provides a useful means of understanding the Institute's policy. The organization's promotion of folk song is also examined and reveals the Institute's contribution to the Folk Revival, as well as providing a valuable context within which to understand the National Federation's first music commission, Ralph Vaughan Williams's Folk Songs of the Four Seasons (1950). This work, and the Institute's second commission, Malcolm Williamson's The Brilliant and the Dark (1969), are examined with the context of the organization's music policy. In addition to discussing the background to the works, issues of critical reception are addressed. The book concludes with an Epilogue about the National Society Choir (later known as the Avalon Singers), which tested the organization's commitment to amateur music making. The book is the result of meticulous work undertaken in the archives of the National Federation, the BBC Written Archives Centre, the V&A archives, the Britten-Pears Library, the Ralph Vaughan Williams Library, the Women's Library and the Newspaper Library.

Book Synopsis Performing Folk Songs by : Elizabeth Bennett
Download or read book Performing Folk Songs written by Elizabeth Bennett and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2023-12-14 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performing Folk Songs is the first full-length volume to explore English folk singing from the perspective of performance studies. Using archival sources, family repertoire and recorded performances of interviewees, this book argues that archives and repertoires are produced in sensory environments and through embodied encounters. Autoethnography, sensory ethnography, life-writing and landscape writing are used to explore the affective and emotional aspects of learning songs 'by heart'. Drawing on her experience as a folk singer, Bennett contributes to discourse on English folk traditions in the 21st century and brings performance scholarship to the contemporary folk song resurgence. In analyzing the performance of English folk songs in the affective context of the archive and the landscape, the book engages with and contributes original insights to scholarship on folk music, performance studies, affect theory, cultural geography and intangible cultural heritage studies.
