Staging Race casts a spotlight on the generation of black artists who came of age between 1890 and World War I in an era of Jim Crow segregation and heightened racial tensions. As public entertainment expanded through vaudeville, minstrel shows, and world's fairs, black performers, like the stage duo of Bert Williams and George Walker, used the conventions of blackface to appear in front of, and appeal to, white audiences. At the same time, they communicated a leitmotif of black cultural humor and political comment to the black audiences segregated in balcony seats. With ingenuity and innovation, they enacted racial stereotypes onstage while hoping to unmask the fictions that upheld them offstage.

Drawing extensively on black newspapers and commentary of the period, Karen Sotiropoulos shows how black performers and composers participated in a politically charged debate about the role of the expressive arts in the struggle for equality. Despite the racial violence, disenfranchisement, and the segregation of virtually all public space, they used America's new businesses of popular entertainment as vehicles for their own creativity and as spheres for political engagement.

The story of how African Americans entered the stage door and transformed popular culture is a largely untold story. Although ultimately unable to erase racist stereotypes, these pioneering artists brought black music and dance into America's mainstream and helped to spur racial advancement.

Imogen Holst (1907-1984), was a key figure in twentieth-century British musical life. The only child of English composer Gustav Holst, she excelled as a composer, writer, conductor, teacher and administrator. Yet she chose to dedicate much of her creative life to the music of two men she regarded as much greater than herself. Between 1952 and 1964 she was employed as music assistant to Benjamin Britten, of whom she became a friend and close associate, before dedicating the last years of her life to promoting the cause of her father's music and cementing his legacy. One of the most wide-ranging and highly regarded of musicians, popular with all who knew her, she was intensively protective of her inner life, reminding one friend of a 'locked door of which she had thrown away the key'. This revised edition uses a wealth of newly discovered material to draw out the complexities and contradictions of her life and career, drawing on her own writings - ranging from heartfelt early poetry, through correspondence and a series of journals that maintain a colourful record of her travels and achievements. Most revealing of these is the daily journal that she kept at the start of her working association with Britten, a document that provides a unique insight both into her own thoughts, and into the professional and domestic life of a major composer. The book also includes a study of Imogen Holst's music and a chronological list of her works, revealing her as a composer of tremendous talent, whose music deserves to be much more familiar..../ Imogen Holst: A Life in Music: Revised Edition (Aldeburgh Studies in Music) / CABARET SONG

The intense and continuing popularity of the long-running television show "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (1997-2003) has long been matched by the range and depth of the academic critical response. This volume, the first devoted to the show's imaginative and widely varied use of music, sound and silence, helps to develop an increasingly important and inadequately covered area of research - the many roles of music in contemporary television. In addressing this significant gap, this book provides an exemplary overview of the functions of music and sound in the interpretation of a television show. This is done through analyses that focus on scoring and source music, the title theme, the music production process, the critically acclaimed musical episode (voted number 13 in Channel Four's "One Hundred Greatest Musicals"), the symbolic and dramatic use of silence, and the popular reception of the show by its international fan base. In keeping with contemporary trends in the study of popular musics, a variety of critical approaches are taken from musicology, cultural studies, and media and communication studies, specifically employing critique, musical analysis, industry studies and hermeneutics..../ Music, Sound and Silence in Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Ashgate Popular and Folk Music Series) / CABARET SONG
