Music Theory in Britain, 1500–1700: Critical Editions

The critical edition of John Playford's Introduction to the Skill of Musick (1672, Sixth edition) represents the contents of Playford's seminal pedagogical treatise in the middle of its development. Although Playford's Introduction was one of the most famous music texts of the period, a satisfactory modern edition of its contents has not yet been published. This is due, in part, to the fact that the interior contents of the Introduction changed markedly throughout its publication run from 1654 to 1730 (though post-1694 changes are minimal). This edition addresses this issue by presenting not only the transcription of the 1672 edition, but detailed contents of the entire publication run to better understand the shifting contents of the major sections of the work from its beginnings to the turn of the century. The contents include an introductory essay concerning the development of the series, divided according to the main sections of the text: The Grounds and Rules of Musick, Instructions and Lessons for the Bass Viol, and The Art of Descant. The body is a full transcription of the 1672 edition with images. Two appendices contain 1) critical notes on the text and a comparison of the major changes-section changes, major wording and style changes, repertoire lists, along with significant codicological amendments-between editions using 1672 as the model, and 2) a list of all of the music in the different editions of the Introduction, including information regarding in which editions the pieces may be found and a reference to modern editions on those works.

The Sociology of Music

A deep dive into the meaning behind the hatred of jazz. &nbsp; A rock guitarist plays four notes in front of one thousand people, while a jazz guitarist plays one thousand notes in front of four people. You might laugh or groan at this jazz joke, but what is it about jazz that makes people want to disparage it in the first place? Andrew S. Berish's Hating Jazz listens to the voices who have denounced, disparaged, and mocked the music. By focusing on the rejection of the music, Berish says, we see more holistically jazz's complicated place in American cultural life. Jazz is a display of Black creativity and genius, an art form that is deeply embedded in African American life. Though the explicit racial tenor of jazz jokes has become muted over time, making fun of jazz, either in a lighthearted or aggressive way, is also an engagement with the place of Blackness in America. An individual's taste in music may seem personal, but Berish's analysis of jazz hatred demonstrates that musical preferences and trends are a social phenomenon. Criticism of jazz has become inextricable from the ways we understand race in America, past and present. In addition to this form of criticism, Berish also considers jazz hate as a form of taste discrimination and as a conflict over genre boundaries within different jazz cultures. Both enlightening and original, Hating Jazz shows that our response to music can be a social act, unique to our historical moment and cultural context-we react to music in certain ways because of who we are, where we are, and when we are. &nbsp;

Music and Material Culture

In the early twenty-first century we are inundated with technologies and discourses that privilege the apparently liberating immaterial aspects of digital culture. Despite, or perhaps because, of this, the making of material objects continues to be of importance in people's everyday lives. Including case studies on guitar makers, homemade recording equipment, car audio culture, and 3D printing of musical instruments, Gavin Carfoot critically examines the ways that musical objects are produced through social and cultural practices and forms of labour, in co-constitutive ways between human makers and non-human objects.

Making Things Musical

In The Music-Machines, author Sean Nye traces the distinct American reception and interpretation of German electronic music from the 1950s to the 2000s. Covering a series of crucial historical moments, The Music-Machines provides both a new and alternate history of the extraordinary impact that electronic music from Germany had in the United States. Exploring this cultural dynamic, Nye demonstrates the ultimate intertwining of America's popular music with the Cold War history of West Germany and the post-1989 history of the Berlin Republic. In this way, The Music Machines sets the frame not only for the study of German electronic music, but the ways in which this electronic turn emerged in American perceptions of German identity.

In The Music-Machines, author Sean Nye traces a fascinating and distinctly American interpretation of 20th century German electronic music . Covering a series of crucial historical moments, Nye provides both a new and alternate history of the extraordinary impact that electronic music from Germany had in the United States, including the receptions of elektronsische Musik, Krautrock, goth-industrial, Eurodance, techno, trance, and minimal.

This first comprehensive history of German-American exchanges in electronic music explores the political and social dimensions of American constructions of Germanness in electronic music. Nye interprets the music in relation to technology, art, and musical style, encouraging readers to delve into what that reveals about its relationship to nation, race, gender, and sexuality. Through such interpretations, The Music-Machines presents a cultural arc of these constructions of Germanness and electronic music. 

Nye sets this German-American exchange within larger questions of music and transnationalism, tracing key intersections between German and US cultures while also reflecting on other musical and cultural influences on German electronic music, The Music-Machines also places the evolution of electronic music in its broader historical context, demonstrating the ultimate intertwining of America's popular music with the Cold War history of West Germany and the post-1989 history of the Berlin Republic. In this way, The Music-Machines sets the frame not only for the study of German electronic music, but the ways in which this electronic turn emerged in American perceptions of German identity.

What musical elements define the unmistakable, yet constantly evolving, 'U2 sound'? This book addresses this question in a three-tiered music -theoretical dissection of the band's unique sound. Endrinal's analyses reach beyond the traditional focus on melody, harmony and rhythm, drawing on new computer assisted analytical techniques to explore texture, timbre and instrumentation. More than a study of one band, then, this book offers new analytical methods for the study of popular music.

What musical elements define the unmistakable, yet constantly evolving, 'U2 sound'? How is their enormously engaging music constructed? How have U2 maintained their prominent position in the  ever-shifting world of popular music? Let Me In The Sound: The Sonic Signature of U2 addresses  these questions in a three-tiered music-theoretical dissection of the band's unique sound. Endrinal begins by identifying the salient sonic characteristics that combine to form U2's distinctive musical autograph.  With those characteristics established, the book examines the various approaches to formal organization found in the band's oeuvre. Finally, detailed analyses of several songs from across the band's career demonstrate how U2 construct songs and how each member of the band contributes his own unique musical perspective to these formal designs. Endrinal's analyses reach beyond the traditional focus on melody, harmony and rhythm, drawing on new computer assisted analytical techniques to explore texture, timbre and instrumentation.  More than a study of one band, then, this book offers new analytical methods for the study of popular music.

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.
