Violeta Parra: musical and political legacy of a cantora
ABSTRACT This article discusses Violeta Parra’s work as a woman musician analysing how she contributed to challenging long-standing colonial paradigms in Chilean (and Latin American) music. Through a review of the multifaceted concept of cantora, or female singer of the people, as well as the analysis of four cueca songs, this study offers insights on how Parra negotiated the terms of the Chilean urban folkloric scene of her time. Her trajectory as a folklorist allowed her to vindicate an otherwise disparaged popular culture, and as cantautora, or singer-songwriter, she redefined the gender roles of her time becoming a musical and political referent for her peers, thus offering renovated perspectives on both female musicianship and national identity.
期刊介绍:
Articles often emphasise first-hand, sustained engagement with people as music makers, taking the form of ethnographic writing following one or more periods of fieldwork. Typically, ethnographies aim for a broad assessment of the processes and contexts through and within which music is imagined, discussed and made. Ethnography may be synthesised with a variety of analytical, historical and other methodologies, often entering into dialogue with other disciplinary areas such as music psychology, music education, historical musicology, performance studies, critical theory, dance, folklore and linguistics. The field is therefore characterised by its breadth in theory and method, its interdisciplinary nature and its global perspective.
