• 9780131930735: Crossroads, The Muliticultural Roots of America's Popular Music von Elizabeth F. Barkley  € 67,36 [D]*  Lieferbar

  Through a blended historical, ethnic, and musical approach, with a strong contemporary focus and the inclusion of a wide variety of musical styles from American society's broad ethnic groups, this text meets the needs of the new generation of faculty and students by more accurately reflecting the diverse musical traditions of the United States.

   

  Elizabeth Barkley wrote this book to meet the needs of today's more diverse student population.  Returning to the classroom after nine years as an academic Dean, she was aware of the student demographic changes, but unprepared for the pedagogical implications of those changes.  As she struggled to engage her students in a traditional music survey course, they looked bored and apathetic and it was then that she knew she had to find a better way.  As a result, she created a new course called The Musics of Multicultural America, based on her analysis that an important characteristic that seemed to unify her students was "Americanness."   Working with UC Berkeley's Center for the Study of American Cultures, she developed a course that traced a variety of contemporary musics such as rock 'n' roll, salsa, gospel, blues, jazz, Cajun, zydeco, and Tejano from their roots in the music traditions of immigrant groups to their hybridization and development into uniquely new American musics. Soon her classes were filled with enthusiastic students who had enrolled on the recommendation of former students, friends and counselors.  The traditional survey course had averaged anywhere from 40 to 60 students per year; in 2005-06, the capped annual enrollment was at 1,250. This textbook is the result of her work developing materials for that course.

  A History of Music in Western Culture 2/e is based on the premise that the best way to convey the history of Western music is to focus squarely on the music.  Organized around a carefully selected repertory of works, this text integrates the requisite names, dates, and concepts around specific compositions.  Once familiar with a representative body of music, students can better grasp the evolution of musical style and music's changing uses within the Western tradition.  Even more importantly, they will have a sound basis from which to explore other musical works and repertories.  This text builds its narrative around the core repertory represented in the Anthology of Scores and the corresponding sets of compact discs.

   

  Mark Evan Bonds wrote A History of Music in Western Culture to help students to gain a broad understanding of the nature of music, its role in society, and the ways in which these have changed over time.  This text seeks to challenge students to think critically about its subject.  The history of music is too often presented (and learned) as one long series of indisputable facts.  The author integrated into this text enough primary source documents:  excerpts from composers' letters, contemporary reviews, theoretical treatises, and the like to demonstrate the ways in which the raw materials of history can be open to conflicting interpretations. Indeed, the most interesting historical issues tend to be precisely those about which experts disagree.

• 9780130618634: Introduction to Form, Style, and Genre, An von James R. Mathes  € 44,89 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  For courses on the analysis of musical form, with an emphasis on western music from 1700 to the present, in the standard Music Theory curriculum.

   

  The Analysis of Musical Form emphasizes aural comprehension, incorporates recent analytic methodologies, and addresses musical form as both process and design.

   

  James Mathes wrote this book due to a lack of textbooks written in the past dozen years on musical form.The relatively few texts on the market do not address recent scholarship or methodology, do not address phrase rhythm and formal processes in a systematic or thorough manner, and omit discussion of vocal forms and developments in post-tonal music of the 20th century. There is also a lack of emphasis on aural comprehension of musical forms. Separate chapters on vocal forms and 20th-century music, inclusion of recent developments in analytic methodology with suggested readings, and aural exercises, and accompanying CDs address these problems.

• 9780131931152: Jazz Styles, History and Analysis von Mark C. Gridley  € 85,55 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  For undergraduate courses in Jazz History, Jazz Survey, Evolution of Jazz, Introduction to Jazz, and Jazz Appreciation.

  America's most widely used introduction to jazz, it teaches the chronology of jazz by showing students how to listen and what to notice in each style. Though originally conceived for nonmusicians and written at a college freshmen reading level, Jazz Styles also has been widely adopted in courses for musicians because of its point-by-point specification of each style's musical characteristics and its technical appendix. The text helps students hear how the styles differ and why the top names are important. The book's listening guides offer in-depth analysis for 38 historic recordings contained on the 2CD Jazz Classics collection.

It takes a listening-based approach, focusing on individual works where the student is guided with appropriate musical and social background in order to understand the relationship to other music.

• 9780131872349: Music for Sight Singing von Robert W. Ottman, Nancy Rogers  € 63,08 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  For courses in Music Theory (a two-year sequence including sight singing and ear training) as well as separate Sight Singing courses.

   

  Using an abundance of meticulously organized melodies drawn from the literature of composed music and a wide range of the world's folk music, Ottman provides the most engaging and comprehensive Sight Singing text on the market.

   

  Over fifty years ago, Robert W. Ottman set out to write a book that draws examples from the literature as opposed to being composed by the author.  He proposed that students should work with "real" music as they study musical forms.  The result was Music for Sight Singing.  Not only is real music more enjoyable and  interesting to sing than dry examples, but genuine repertoire naturally introduces a host of important musical considerations beyond pitch and rhythm (including dynamics, accents, articulations, slurs, repeat signs, and tempo markings).  Several generations of teachers have also agreed that Ottman's ability to order his examples from the simple to the complex is another key to the book's long term success.

  For freshman/sophomore-level courses in any Music Theory curriculum.

  Blending step-by-step guidance with frequent practice, this text helps students cultivate an understanding of sight singing and develop the skills to hear mentally a piece of printed music without using an instrument. It features a finely organized collection of melodies taken from music literature, ranging mostly from fundamental works of the past to representative excerpts taken from recent twentieth-century music.

  Music for Sight Singing is the best-selling book for Music Theory students.  It features over 1700 examples, many drawn from "real music" that professors value and students enjoy singing.  With the passing of author Robert Ottman, new author Nancy Rogers has added new vitality to the book, introducing exercises to develop creativity as well as to build basic skills.

  
  
  
• 9780131826625: Music for Sightsinging von Robert W. Ottman  € 65,22 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  The study of sight singing is one of the most important means of developing the ability to recognize ("to hear") mentally the sound of music notation on the printed page without the necessity of recourse to a musical instrument. For the professional musician, performer, or teacher, this skill is a necessity, while for others, achievement will greatly amplify the pleasures of musical activity in performance and listening.

  To achieve success in sight singing, students must have large numbers of melodies available for practice. Once a melody has been sung, repetition is no longer "singing a first sight," although reviewing for study purposes is highly recommended. To this end, this volume includes 1,199 examples. Most of these are chosen from worldwide folk sources and a wide variety of composed music, ranging from melodies simpler than Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star to excerpts from Bartok string quartets. The remaining examples, written by the author, provide practice for rhythm alone, and for singing melodies composed only of adjacent scale steps, valuable for initial study but rarely found in music literature.

  Each chapter presents only one new problem, either in rhythm or in melody, allowing students to concentrate on the newly introduced feature. Otherwise, no chapter will include any material not already presented in earlier chapters. For the dedicated student, this careful selection and grading of melodies guarantees steady and rewarding progress to a successful accomplishment of sight singing skills. Some of the changes in the new edition include:

  • Additional melodies incorporating modulation and other uses of chromaticism.
  • In many chapters, order of materials reorganized to reflect a better sequence from easy to more difficult.
  • Revised and/or added materials in introductory statements, especially in the subjects of the hemiola, melodic use of the Neapolitan sixth harmony, and twentieth-century music.
  • Numerous new melodies, including a "find" of easy but effective melodies by Schubert, especially in modulation and syncopation.

  The Sixth Edition contains nearly 1200 melodies taken from a wide spectrum of music literature and the world's folk music.

• 9780131776968: Music Sociology Education von Hildegard C. Froehlich  € 22,42 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  For upper level undergraduate and introductory graduate and doctoral courses in music education.

   

  Outlining the basic aspects, constructs and concepts relevant to understanding music teaching and learning from a sociological perspective, this volume introduces students to the discipline as a tool in understanding their own work. The text shows how certain academics in music, sociology and education have thought about the relationship of music to education, schooling and society and examines the consequences of such thinking for making instructional choices in teaching methods and repertoire selection.

   

  School music teaching is imbedded in two major societal traditions: (1) the tradition of music making, listening, and responding; and (2) the tradition of education as a societal mandate.  The first tradition holds firmly to music artistry and musicological scholarship, the latter of which includes music sociology.  The second tradition, that of education as a field of study, relies mostly on pedagogical principles rooted equally in psychology and sociology.  Hildegard Froehlich bases the book upon the premise that a music teacher's work is equally shaped by both traditions.  

   

  The more music teachers become aware of how societal structures shape their own lives as well as the lives of their students, colleagues, and superiors; the more "reality-based" their teaching will become.  Society is a composite of communities in which different social classes, groups, and reference groups co-exist-to varying degrees of compatibility due to real or perceived differences in norms and values as well as hierarchies of power.  Informed or intuitive choices made by an individual indicate allegiances to particular groups, how those groups are structured hierarchically; and where and how each individual fits into those hierarchies. This is true for the music world as it is true for the world of education.

• 9780205137039: Rockin' Out von Reebee Garofalo  € 26,70 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  This book proceeds from the assumption that music is always a social indicator; that is, it tells us something about the world around us. It responds to, mirrors, and influences the society in which we live. This comprehensive social history is organized chronologically around themes and issues which explicate the connection between music and other social processes. These include the multicultural influences in US popular music; the impact of technological advances; the significance of class, race, gender, ethnicity, and region; the importance of political context; and the power of consumer preferences.

  Rockin' Out is necessarily encyclopedic; still, it balances information with analysis. The text begins with the invention of sound recording and the rise of Tin Pan Alley, and proceeds through discussions of blues, country, and rhythm and blues as historical background. As such, it provides students with significant discussions of the preconditions and formative influences of the music. Garofalo discusses rock and soul, punk and disco, rap and metal, and alternative music as well as all of the sub-genres and stylistic variants of these sounds. This is the only text that covers the total range of US popular music in the 20th century, locates them in their social context, and provides an interdisciplinary analysis of their significance.

  Feedback on Understanding the Music Business from the Reading Hour Program:

  "It seems to have more of an edge on the current text I'm using. Better graphics, current examples, sidebars and a nice review section at the end. I love having terms and chapter questions included in the actual text. It saves me time from having to create my own set of questions and review terms for each chapter." - April Brumfield, Eastern Kentucky University
