Abstract:
In this article I discuss the blossoming of musical life in Greece that begun in 1974, simultaneously with the growth of the debt crisis. Communist musicians returned from exile and they were hailed as heroes while their music became indispensible to pre-electoral gatherings. Connected to the return to democracy, music and musicians became extremely important to politicians and loved by the people, and were offered a substantial portion of the money that poured in from the EU. Cold War cultural politics played their role in promoting avant-garde music as well. In comparison, today Greece has a

AbstractPopular music is ubiquitous in the lives of our students, music is used by politicians at virtually every one of their campaign events, and musicians are increasingly active in politics, but music has never been considered as a pedagogical tool in teaching political science classes. This article describes the use of music in an introduction to American politics class. I argue that playing music in class can increase student interest, reinforce important concepts, and actively engage the students in the learning process.

AbstractAfter the Obama administration (2009–17) began authorizing musical exchanges with Cuba in 2009, Havana's music festivals became a primary site for transnational interactions and a public face for US-Cuban engagement while politicians worked towards normalization in secret. This article uses field research from the Havana International Jazz Festival, interviews with festival participants, and media coverage to explore Cuban music festivals as politically liminal spaces where musical and political life commingled to reflect the changing US-Cuban relationship.

Abstract:
Because personas are performances of identity, strategically enacted for an immediate or imagined audience, the study of personas to date has concentrated on the public realm of life. Professional personas enacted in workplaces have taken up much attention, whether for artists, comedians, scientists, actors, musicians, or politicians. Similarly (and often overlapping the professional persona), the performance of self online that is constituted in and through social media has proven a generative space for research. Mediatised personas generally open up a space for understanding persona performa

Abstract:
The article dwells on the notion of the language personality of the politician-as-actor interpreted within the framework of the politainment theory: the term used in the paper does not indicate the previous profession of a politician but rather describes one of the peculiarities of the political discourse, viz. its theatricality. The paper argues that when political communication is being transformed into politainment, theatricality becomes its key component. Politainment is interpreted here as a hybrid type of political discourse including elements of mass-media and everyday spheres of commun

AbstractThis article examines the underexplored history of the 1973 Philadelphia Orchestra China tour and retheorizes twentieth-century musical diplomacy as a process of ritualization. As a case study, I consult bilingual archives and incorporate interviews with participants in this event, which brings together individual narratives and public opinions. By contextualizing this musical diplomacy in the Cold War détente and the Chinese Cultural Revolution, I argue for the complex set of relations mobilized by Western art music in 1973.

Before he became a famous musician and music producer, he took whatever work he could find to make ends meet, which sometimes resulted in seemingly unlikely alliances with white supremacists. “We were frequently hired … to furnish music for political rallies,” recalled Handy. At these rallies, Handy and his band of Black musicians had to “absorb a ‘passel’ of oratory of the brand served by some Southern politicians.” At this time, Mississippi’s race

Abstract How do music and musicians make claims to represent peoples and causes? Examples of this abound, from stars who campaign on behalf of causes to politicians who use music to carry their message. This phenomenon has received less attention than it might seem to warrant. Using Shirin Rai’s framework for analysing political performances, this chapter explores the different ways in which musical performance is used to claim representation. It argues that Rai’s valuable framework can be expanded to include the particular sonic and gestural features of musical performances. Further, it propo

Marchinhas have historically been seen as arenas for the expression of social critique through humorous song lyrics, and double meanings. After samba became the primary rhythm to accompany carnival in Brazil, however, marchinhas became somewhat forgotten. Since the 2000s, street carniva

During the Civil War, the hotel was converted into a hospital. The cast of characters visiting the Gilmer was remarkable.
