The Official Biography

Ashgate Contemporary Thinkers on Critical Musicology Series

This collection of studies represents the range of Rosand's contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works. Taken together, the articles demonstrate how Rosand has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.

This collection of studies by Ellen Rosand represents the range of her contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.  Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works--from its function in representing the ideals of the Republic of Venice through its essential role in the emerging genre of opera, from the expressive mechanics of Monteverdi and Cavalli to those of Handel and Vivaldi.  With methodological flexibility, Rosand's analyses are responsive to the works themselves.  Exploring the mimetic significance of particular formal motifs and scenic conventions, the intimate relationship of music and text, or a composer's dramatic choices, discovering a new musical personality (Barbara Strozzi) or the historical and cultural circumstances, the practical and creative dynamics of an emerging dramatic art (opera in Venice), she has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.

Ashgate Interdisciplinary Studies in Opera

Although Gustav Holst is rarely thought of as an opera composer, his operatic works provide a gateway to the exploration of how a budding opera composer negotiated the British operatic world across his career and how his synthesis of a myriad of cultural influences in his operatic works affected his reputation and success as a composer. This interdisciplinary study provides a kaleidoscopic view of how overlapping and often contradictory cultural influences such as imperialism, religion, literature, indigenous theatre, philosophy, folk culture, nationalism, and historiography are reflected in Holst's operas and figure into his reception as a composer of operas.

SEMPRE Studies in The Psychology of Music

The Body in Music is a groundbreaking music psychology text innovatively marrying perspectives from western music performance practice and pedagogy with those spanning experimental to social research. Founded on a significant heritage of artistic practice, it reinvigorates traditional ideas with fresh knowledge garnered from the burgeoning field of inquiry into the role of the body in generating, communicating, and perceiving performance. An exemplar vignette, crafted from the authors' shared performance experience, sets the tone for the work, embedding it in an established socio-cultural context. Case-study driven chapters strive to reconcile empirical work and performance practice. Woven together, they form a narrative journeying the multi-dimensional roles of bodily engagement with music performance. This text is timely in that it bridges a widening gap between disciplines, researcher, and practitioner offering pathways of convergence towards developing theory and understanding of the body in music performance.

Strange Things Are Happening

Regina Lawrence¿s new text argues that many films explicitly or implicitly portray aspects of power¿the central concept in the study of politics¿in patterned, predictable, and often problematic ways. By introducing a multi-faceted framework for thinking about the political nature of films, Lawrence explores three ways film can be studied by political scientists and scholars of political communication: the power of film to portray political reality, how films allocate resources, and the nature of film¿s portrayals of power.

Portraying Power follows the recent trend toward using popular culture and entertainment as a vehicle for explaining politics by pushing the line of inquiry into the study of film, the form of entertainment least explored by scholars of political communication. Film studies rooted in film theory and critical cultural approaches have a long and venerable history, but political science has thus far contributed very little to nor drawn much upon it. Regina Lawrence’s new text argues that many films explicitly or implicitly portray aspects of power—the central concept in the study of politics—in patterned, predictable, and often problematic ways. By introducing a multi-faceted framework for thinking about the political nature of films, Lawrence explores three ways film can be studied by political scientists and scholars of political communication: the power of film to portray political reality, how films allocate resources, and the nature of film’s portrayals of power. Covering a typology of film in terms of general form—from documentaries to "based on a true story" narratives to the purely fictional—and their political content—from explicit to implicit—Lawrence analyzes a broad array of films. This will be the only text on the market written by an expert on political communication that truly synthesizes the scholarly insights of political science, communication studies, and film studies. A companion website will includes basic background on film theory and technique, links to film clips and interviews with filmmakers, and other support materials for the text.

Music and Sound on the International Screen

Throughout the Cold War, the films produced on both sides of the Iron Curtain both reflected and were shaped by the ideologies of their respective countries. Music played a key role defining the messages sent by these films. The essays in this book offer the first extended look at the relationship between music and ideology in the European cinema of the Cold War era. With contributions from an international array of scholars, this volume examines cinematic productions from Britain, East and West Germany, France, Yugoslavia, Poland, the Soviet Union, and Francoist Spain. The contributors explore the interactions between music, ideology, and cinema that shaped mass culture in the Cold War.

SOAS Studies in Music

With the abrogation of the Zen Buddhist Fuke sect during Japan's modernisation process in the late nineteenth century, the raison d'être for the shakuhachi (Japanese vertical bamboo flute) as a spiritual tool for mendicant monks suddenly vanished. Thereafter, playing the shakuhachi changed from spiritual practice to professional musicianship or musical hobby. The fact that the instrument had been modified and 'improved' has been a well-kept secret. The old style shakuhachi, now named jinashi shakuhachi, became a marginalised instrument for eccentrics. However, during the past decade it has gained popularity, especially outside Japan, where it is considered to be 'the real thing' as opposed to the modernised jinuri shakuhachi. Kiku Day examines how the jinashi shakuhachi, although constructed according to the principles current prior to the Meiji Restoration, itself has been modified to adapt to the needs of modern players. In order to place the instrument into the modern world in its own right, the author, a professional jinashi shakuhachi player, describes her recent collaboration with five international composers on a performance project with the aim of creating a new repertoire. This process of cross cultural creation is described against the background of action research, Theory U, and the theory of flow.
