They Like To Sing The Old Songs: The A.L. Phipps Family & Its Music, David Taylor May 1978

They Like To Sing The Old Songs: The A.L. Phipps Family & Its Music, David Taylor

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

An ethnographic study of the musical traditions of the A. L. Phipps Family, of Barbourville, Kentucky, reveals various social forces which have affected the family's repertoire and performance career. A life history of the family, compiled from extensive fieldwork, is presented along with analyses of the Phippses' secular music, sacred songs, and their performance career. The family is clearly representative of the musical traditions of the upland South, drawing its music from sources common to most white Appalachian singers. A discography of the Phipps Family's recordings is included along with a selection of photographs highlighting their life and performance career.

Mary Cassatt/Edgar Degas And Clara Wieck/Robert Schumann: The Comparative Status Of Female And Male Artists And Composers In The Nineteenth Century, Carol Ann Munchel O.S.F.

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The nineteenth century bequeathed few women artists and composers to art and music history as currently recorded. Those women, noted by biographers and historians, seem to be inferior to their male contemporaries in status and significance. This paper has attempted to trace the development of two women in the arts, Mary Cassatt and Clara Wieck, and in comparing their talent, growth, and contributions, uncover possible reasons for the inequality of repute they have been given. The problem, then, was to discover any significant differences in the education, criticism, and acceptance of nineteenth-century artists and composers on the basis of sex. …

Jean Thomas' American Folk Song Festival : British Balladry In Eastern Kentucky., Marshall A. Portnoy Jan 1978

Jean Thomas' American Folk Song Festival : British Balladry In Eastern Kentucky., Marshall A. Portnoy

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Serious musicological research initiated in the first decades of the twentieth century in America uncovered vast riches of British folk music that had been transplanted to these shores by early pioneers. In the mountains of Appalachia, traditional British ballads remained miraculously unspoiled, and distinguished researchers from Britain and America published many volumes of such songs. Jean Thomas, a legal stenographer born in eastern Kentucky in 1881, became fascinated with this phenomenon. She came to believe that an annual festival of mountain music would help ensure the survival of this art and, in 1930, she founded the American Folk Song Festival. …

A Collection Of Italian Opera Libretti In The Syracuse University Libraries, Aubrey S. Garlington Jr. Apr 1977

A Collection Of Italian Opera Libretti In The Syracuse University Libraries, Aubrey S. Garlington Jr.

The Courier

In this article, Aubrey S. Garlington, Jr. explains the historical tension between the composer of the opera and its librettist, arguing that although the adulation of the composer has steadily risen in modern history, there cannot be an opera without a libretto. He also notes that 18th and early 19th century libretti are becoming more important in musicology, and analyzes a collection of Italian libretti that can be found at Syracuse University's Bird Library.

If I'D Been Polish, I Guess I'D Be Playing Polkas: An Examination Of The Social Contexts Of Traditional Irish Music In Rochester, New York, George Stoner

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Anthropologists, folklorists and popular writers have, in general, neglected to describe. the social contexts in which traditional Irish music is played. Although the dance was probably the most important context for traditional Irish music in Rochester, as elsewhere in the United States and Ireland, interest among Irish-born Americans and Irish- Americans in traditional dancing has waned. At present, the most important social contexts for Irish music in Rochester are the session, the Feis, and various representational contexts. The session is by far the most important, and has developed as interest in the dance has declined. Unlike the dance, it is …
