Music of a Thousand Years
Author: Ann E. Lucas
Publisher: University of California Press
ISBN: 0520300807
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. Iran’s particular system of traditional Persian art music has been long treated as the product of an ever-evolving, ancient Persian culture. In Music of a Thousand Years, Ann E. Lucas argues that this music is a modern phenomenon indelibly tied to changing notions of Iran’s national history. Rather than considering a single Persian music history, Lucas demonstrates cultural dissimilarity and discontinuity over time, bringing to light two different notions of music-making in relation to premodern and modern musical norms. An important corrective to the history of Persian music, Music of a Thousand Years is the first work to align understandings of Middle Eastern music history with current understandings of the region’s political history.

The Radif as Musical Syntax
Author: Behzad K. Namazi
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Ethnomusicology
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
In this dissertation, entitled The Radīf as Musical Syntax: Instrument Revival in Persian Traditional Music, I investigate the ways in which the radīf (canonic musical repertoire) functions as a system of melodic governance for composition and improvisation. Through ethnographic fieldwork and analytical approaches, I consider how the performance of radīf-based melodies on relegated Persian musical instruments (namely, the barbat and qanun) has facilitated their ongoing process of revival. In dialoguing with my interlocutors and surveying the scholarship, I found that this dissertation has served as the first of its kind, documenting the music performed on the instrument as the driver for its revival. Furthermore, there has been very little scholarship documenting the work of current Persian musicians. Through my dissertation, I hope to help fill this lacuna and contribute to the extant literature in ethnomusicology. Segments of this research have been presented at various national conferences, including the 62nd Annual Meeting of the Society for Ethnomusicology, 12th Biennial Conference of the Association for Iranian Studies, and 63rd Annual Meeting of the Society for Ethnomusicology.

Author: Dr Laudan Nooshin
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.

Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
This book interrogates musicological discourses of creativity from the perspective of critical theory and postcolonial studies, examining their ideological underpinnings and the relationships of alterity which they sustain. The repertoire which forms the book’s main focus is Iranian classical music, a tradition in which the performer plays a central creative role. Addressing a number of central issues regarding the nature of musical creativity, the author explores both the discourses through which ideas about creativity are constructed, exchanged and negotiated within this tradition, and the practices by which new music comes into being.
