Audiovisual Ethnomusicology
The growing interest in the visual dimension of musical performance practice and the use of film as a medium of presentation and research in Ethnomusicology is related to the increasingly wide use of visual ethnographic methods of research and representation and to the technological development of modern visual tools used today in field research. Film can document both the aural and visual dimensions of a musical performance and has the capability to represent the lives of musicians in their physical and temporal context, to analyse musical structures and to have an ethnographic approach of musical performance. All features are related to contextualization that can best be communicated and represented by audiovisual means. Audiovisual Ethnomusicology, whose subject is the ethnomusicological film, is being con-figured as a new branch of Ethnomusicology. The main aim of this book is to outline its history, the diverse theoretical and methodological approaches adopted by the ethno-film-makers, as well as the different ways to use the visual medium in the "re-presentation" of musical cultures.

Compositional Choices and Meaning in the Vocal Music of J. S. Bach
Curating Contemporary Music Festivals
Contemporary music, like other arts, is dealing with the rise of 罈curators竄 laying claim to everything from festivals to playlists - but what are they and what do they do anyway? Drawing from backgrounds ranging from curatorial studies to festival studies and musicology, Brandon Farnsworth lays out a theory for understanding curatorial practices in contemporary music, and how they could be a solution to the field's diminishing social relevance. The volume focuses on two case studies, the Munich Biennale for New Music Theatre, and the Maerzmusik Festival at the Berliner Festspiele, putting them in a transdisciplinary history of curatorial practice, and showing what music curatorial practice can be.

If It Sounds Good, It Is Good
Music is fundamental to human existence, a cultural universal among all humans for all times. It is embedded in our evolution, encoded in our DNA, which is to say, essential to our survival. Academics in a variety of disciplines have considered this idea to devise explanations that Richard Manning, a lifelong journalist, finds hollow, arcane, incomplete, ivory-towered, and just plain wrong. He approaches the question from a wholly different angle, using his own guitar and banjo as instruments of discovery. In the process, he finds himself dancing in celebration of music rough and rowdy. American roots music is not a product of an elite leisure class, as some academics contend, but of explosive creativity among slaves, hillbillies, field hands, drunks, slackers, and hucksters. Yet these people--poor, working people--built the foundations of jazz, gospel, blues, bluegrass, rock 'n' roll, and country music, an unparalleled burst of invention. This is the counterfactual to the academics' story. This is what tells us music is essential, but by pulling this thread, Manning takes us down a long, strange path, following music to deeper understandings of racism, slavery, inequality, meditation, addiction, the science of our brains, and ultimately to an enticing glimpse of pure religion. Use this book to follow where his guitar leads. Ultimately it sings the American body, electric.

Shaping Words to Fit the Soul
Taking up where he left off with Kinds of Blue (The Ohio State University Press, 2004), J羹rgen E. Grandt seeks to explore in depth some of the implications of the modernist jazz aesthetic resonating in the African American literary tradition. Grandt's new book, Shaping Words to Fit the Soul: The Southern Ritual Grounds of Afro-Modernism, probes the ways in which modernism's key themes of fragmentation, alienation, and epistemology complicate the mapping of the American South as an "authenticating" locus of African American narrative. Rather than being a site of authentication, the South constitutes a symbolic territory that actually resists the very narrative strategies deployed to capture it. The figurative ritual grounds traversed in texts by Frederick Douglass, Jean Toomer, Richard Wright, and Tayari Jones reveal Afro-modernism as modernism with a historical conscience. Since literary Afro-modernism recurrently points to music as a symbolic territory of liberatory potential, this study also visits a variety of soundscapes, from the sorrow songs of the slaves to the hip-hop of the Dirty South, and from the blues of W. C. Handy to the southern rock of the Allman Brothers Band. Afro-modernism as modernism with a historical conscience thus suggests a reconfiguration of southern ritual grounds as situated in time and mind rather than time and place, and the ramifications of this process extend far above and beyond the Mason-Dixon Line.

Vadem矇cum del guitarrista flamencoM矇todo P.E.M.I.
En primer lugar, he de decir que en este vadem矇cum he querido plasmar lo que me hubiera gustado encontrar en mis comienzos en el aprendizaje de la guitarra.En el primer tema hago una semblanza a la guitarra (nuestro instrumento) porque considero que es importante saber de d籀nde viene, puesto que, lamentablemente, no se han editado muchos trabajos impresos en castellano sobre su historia ni la de los guitarristas, aunque parezca raro. (Insisto en lo de textos impresos). Y tambi矇n porque en este a簽o se cumple el segundo centenario del nacimiento de quien fue su innovador m獺s eficaz, D. Antonio de Torres Jurado.Con posterioridad hablo de la situaci籀n que padecemos con nuestro sistema educativo en lo que respecta al aprendizaje, el cual, seg繳n mi opini籀n, carece de valores tales como la ilusi籀n, la motivaci籀n y las emociones positivas. Esto se evidencia en el aprendizaje de un instrumento o de cualquier otro oficio especializado, pues, como no se han aplicado en el momento oportuno los recursos necesarios para superar con 矇xito el fin que se persigue, nos encontramos con un vac穩o que nos impide alcanzarlo. Contin繳o con la problem獺tica de la ense簽anza y el aprendizaje actual pues como maestro considero que debemos pulirlas, y por 繳ltimo, me centro en las t矇cnicas m獺s importantes que hoy d穩a se conocen de la guitarra flamenca, insistiendo preferentemente en las experiencias vividas en todos estos a簽os de mi carrera profesional, que me llev籀 a desarrollar el m矇todo P.E.M.I.Mi idea en este libro va acorde con el lema "por la pr獺ctica, a la regla". De ah穩 que no pretenda abarcar, ni mucho menos, toda la problem獺tica del aprendizaje de la guitarra. Ahora bien, como lo que persigo es un "estilo", esa misma dificultad y los a簽os de estudios y experiencia, han sido los que me han empujado a dar este paso tan dif穩cil, aunque es cierto que en esta ocasi籀n lo ser獺 menos, por dos sencillos motivos: El primero ya lo he dicho: S籀lo se trata de un "estilo" o "gu穩a".El segundo se refiere a que conozco el terreno que piso, y esto har獺 que me atenga a aquellos principios o coordinadas totalmente contrastadas del mundo de la sonanta y de los guitarristas.En fin, aun cuando soy de la opini籀n de que los libros te籀ricos nos hacen admirar el edificio, pero no nos ense簽an a construirlo, aqu穩, en este libro, dicho con modestia, estoy convencido de que se ense簽an y se dan las t矇cnicas necesarias para mejorar y tocar bien la guitarra. (Que es de lo que se trata).Estoy seguro que el m矇todo P.E.M.I. te ser獺 tan 繳til en tu aprendizaje como lo fue para el m穩o, por la sencilla raz籀n que resuelve los problemas m獺s cotidianos que se suelen dar a la hora de aprender a tocar la guitarra.
Laser polarimetry of biological tissues and fluids P.6
Development of computational methodologies for processing of microscopic images is a new health-physical method. It is laser polarimetry of biological tissues histological sections. It is based on measurement of the coordinate distributions (polarization maps) in the plane of polarization states of histological sections microscopic images of biological tissues. This method allows a new, inaccessible to the histological and mathematical methods of analysis, information on the optical anisotropy (linear and circular birefringence) multiscale structural elements of different biological objects. At the same time, a complex analysis of the polarization maps of a tissue specimen is azimuthally dependent to the probing beam polarization plane and sample rotation angle. This makes it difficult to use this method in comparative research groups histological sections with different pathologies. Thus, further progress of laser polarimetry may be connected with the development of azimuthally stable methods of direct measurement of the parameters of linear and circular birefringence.
