Instead, the early music revival has developed its own unique approach to recording, inspired by innovations in musical styles other than classical music. The emergence of the rock concept album in the 1960s helped to shape the genres of art rock and progressive rock and to set them apart from other sub-genres. Some of the achievements of the early concept album—the use of studio technology and the medium of the LP in a way that yielded a large-scale musical and narrative form—appealed to early music and folk musicians. The article examines the work of prominent early music performers who adopted a conceptual-narrative approach to the recording of early repertories. David Munrow’s first early music albums demonstrate techniques borrowed from his work in the folk scene. Thomas Binkley’s careful handling of large-scale musical form helped to shape the pilgrimage narrative of his influential “Camino de Santiago” album. The article analyses further examples from several recordings of Hildegard’s music, and from the recordings of Jordi Savall and Pedro Memelsdorff, as early music concept albums. These albums show how early music performers use narrativity both to create a quasi-historical illusion and to create abstract musical narratives.","PeriodicalId":42616,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MUSICOLOGICAL RESEARCH","volume":"310 1","pages":"323 - 348"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76443563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through sound recordings, reviews, photos, and her own writings, I amplify de la Rama’s musical and metaphorical voice to address the important role of women in Philippine music and popular culture. Her work highlights the role of the performer as an equally important locus of creative authorship as that ascribed to playwrights and composers. De la Rama’s celebrity status also carried through the visual aspects of her public persona on and off stage, cultivating an image that was both modern and traditional, Filipino and cosmopolitan. Such self-fashioning carried political significance, especially during the resurgence of nationalism and in the emerging women’s movement during the 1920s and 1930s in the Philippines.","PeriodicalId":42616,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MUSICOLOGICAL RESEARCH","volume":"11 1","pages":"297 - 322"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90371329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The inspiration for this idea comes from “The Conversation” between columnists Gail Collins and Bret Stephens published weekly in the New York Times. For this inaugural musicological “conversation,” I wanted to focus on Twitter because of the platform’s deep connections to activism, a topic explored brilliantly in the book #Hashtag Activism by Sarah J. Jackson, Moya Bailey, and Brooke Foucault Welles. Despite the social media site’s well-earned negative reputation, Twitter has struck me as a potentially egalitarian space, offering musicologist of all ranks (and no rank at all) a chance to connect, to share research, and to discover research-related questions. As an independent scholar, this potential has long been attractive to me, even more so during the Covid lockdown, when travel prevented even those with means from attending conferences. It is clear, however, that these positives only exist if a person engages with Twitter in certain ways. After all, the pitfalls are many: Twitter trolls are everywhere and it is surprisingly easy to become mired in public confrontations and controversies. With this in mind, I reached out to three Twitter veterans, music scholars who have a visible and influential presence on Twitter, hoping they might shed some light on Twitter best practices, both for those like me, in music and newly on Twitter, and for those thinking about joining this network. I am confident their conversation will be useful for more seasoned Twitter users as well. Here, then, are my kickoff questions, addressed to Matthew D.

These six solo recitals, five of which featured singers, highlighted Austrian musical culture by recruiting Austrian performers to perform Austrian music in an Austrian setting. For the first time since the Annexation in 1938, Salzburg Festival administrators had the opportunity, albeit with limited resources, to assert an identity separate from Germany. By leveraging available resources, collaborating strategically with occupiers, evoking nostalgia, and providing a sacred space, these small-scale recitals were integral to the first postwar season of the Salzburg Festival and its subsequent revival.","PeriodicalId":42616,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MUSICOLOGICAL RESEARCH","volume":"61 8","pages":"214 - 238"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01411896.2021.1937151","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72394272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
