Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ...C, Path of dancers in structure. The closing song contains only two tones, is simple in rhythm, and has a drumbeat in unaccented eighth notes, the other songs having a drumbeat in quarter notes. The accompanying instrument was a hand drum. Analysis.--We have before us for consideration two renditions of a song by the same singer (cf. Nos. 77, 78), the first rendition being recorded in 1914 and the second in 1916. The duplication was accidental, which adds to the interest of the comparison. On the first occasion the song was sung three times and on the second it was sung twice. Comparing the transcriptions of the two renditions, we find in the second a more regular rhythm and also an ornamentation of the melody, as in the third measure. The firstnamed peculiarity is shown by the presence of rhythmic units, the latter by a larger proportion of whole-tone progressions. Inquiry was made concerning the life of the singer during the two years elapsing between the making of the records, as the rhythm might possibly be influenced by an adaptation to the ways of the white man. The Government officials on the reservation were, however, of the opinion that no appreciable change had taken place in the singer and the difference in the records was attributed by them to a difference in mood at the time of recording. On comparing the analyses of the two renditions, we find the following resemblances and differences: RESEMBLANCES Tonality Major. First tone Octave. Last tone Fifth. Compass 12 tones. Tone material Octave complete except seventh. Structure Melodic. First progression Upward. Time of first measure 2-4. DIFFERENCES 'Interesting features of the second rendition are the first and second endings and the connective phrase. In both renditions the...

Folk Music in the United States
Author: Bruno Nettl
Publisher: Wayne State University Press
ISBN: 9780814315576
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Folding a River, a collection of elegies, shows a pleasing range of free-verse forms that develop themes sustained throughout: loss, exile, myth, landscape. Kawita Kandpal's poems are explorations of East-West cultures, taking her into an emo-mythic place not to be found on any map. Kandpal's mood in Folding a River is melancholy, articulated with intelligence and grace, and her phrasing can rise to the level of proverb: "This time next year you will have evolved into an idea." In its personal evocations of geographical and linguistic exile from the subcontinent, centered on a lost father, her work recalls that of Li-Young Lee, yet with a feminine perspective often haunting in its own right: "tenderly / taking back the mistakes of men."
