Download or read book Slave Songs of the United States written by William Francis Allen and published by Applewood Books. This book was released on 1996 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1867, this book is a collection of songs of African-American slaves. A few of the songs were written after the emancipation, but all were inspired by slavery. The wild, sad strains tell, as the sufferers themselves could, of crushed hopes, keen sorrow, and a dull, daily misery, which covered them as hopelessly as the fog from the rice swamps. On the other hand, the words breathe a trusting faith in the life after, to which their eyes seem constantly turned.

Download or read book The Beautiful Music All Around Us written by Stephen Wade and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Beautiful Music All Around Us presents the extraordinarily rich backstories of thirteen performances captured on Library of Congress field recordings between 1934 and 1942 in locations reaching from Southern Appalachia to the Mississippi Delta and the Great Plains. Including the children's play song "Shortenin' Bread," the fiddle tune "Bonaparte's Retreat," the blues "Another Man Done Gone," and the spiritual "Ain't No Grave Can Hold My Body Down," these performances were recorded in kitchens and churches, on porches and in prisons, in hotel rooms and school auditoriums. Documented during the golden age of the Library of Congress recordings, they capture not only the words and tunes of traditional songs but also the sounds of life in which the performances were embedded: children laugh, neighbors comment, trucks pass by. Musician and researcher Stephen Wade sought out the performers on these recordings, their families, fellow musicians, and others who remembered them. He reconstructs the sights and sounds of the recording sessions themselves and how the music worked in all their lives. Some of these performers developed musical reputations beyond these field recordings, but for many, these tracks represent their only appearances on record: prisoners at the Arkansas State Penitentiary jumping on "the Library's recording machine" in a rendering of "Rock Island Line"; Ora Dell Graham being called away from the schoolyard to sing the jump-rope rhyme "Pullin' the Skiff"; Luther Strong shaking off a hungover night in jail and borrowing a fiddle to rip into "Glory in the Meetinghouse." Alongside loving and expert profiles of these performers and their locales and communities, Wade also untangles the histories of these iconic songs and tunes, tracing them through slave songs and spirituals, British and homegrown ballads, fiddle contests, gospel quartets, and labor laments. By exploring how these singers and instrumentalists exerted their own creativity on inherited forms, "amplifying tradition's gifts," Wade shows how a single artist can make a difference within a democracy. Reflecting decades of research and detective work, the profiles and abundant photos in The Beautiful Music All Around Us bring to life largely unheralded individuals--domestics, farm laborers, state prisoners, schoolchildren, cowboys, housewives and mothers, loggers and miners--whose music has become part of the wider American musical soundscape. The hardcover edition also includes an accompanying CD that presents these thirteen performances, songs and sounds of America in the 1930s and '40s.

Download or read book The National School Library of Song Vol 2 written by Leo R. Lewis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-22 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The National School Library of Song, Vol. 2: Advanced Solfeggios; Songs of Nature, of the Seasons, of Home; Secular Four-Part Songs The present number of the National School Library of Song contains, like No. 1, material for use in the upper grades of school instruction in music. The selections are almost exclusively secular in character, and represent a considerable variety of styles and subjects. In adapting the selections for school use, care has been exercised to avoid the extreme limits of all the voices. This has been accomplished sometimes by the transposition Of a whole selection, but oftener by partial rearrangement of lower voices, or by the addi tion of small notes to be sung by voices of limited compass. These small notes are always connected by their stems with the notes of that part which they are intended to relieve, and the instructor will, of course, observe in the preparatory study whether it is desirable to direct certain of the singers to sustain the added part. Occasionally, too, these notes will be found to indicate possibilities of enriching the harmony - especially at endings - when there was no other reason for adding them. The tenor part has been treated with especial consideration. It has been retained within the limits f and f sharp, and may therefore be sung by low alto voices as well as by tenors. The practice of assigning low alto voices to a tenor part cannot be too heartily encouraged, since it not only enhances the musical effect, but also adds to the musical training and experience of the Singers.
