Title Feeling Beats and Experiencing Motion: A Construction-based Theory of Meter Type Book Whole
Year (up) 2019 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 334
Keywords Cognitive science; Embodiment; Meter; Motion; Music theory; Performance studies; Rhythm
Abstract Musical meter is often described as an objective grid-like system of time-points that is created by musical sounds. I define meter instead as any pattern of felt beats an individual listener chooses to hear, a physical and cognitive interpretation of the music that is (re-) created in the moment of listening. We construe meter through embodied metering practices: dance gestures, patterns of counting, or epistemologies of rhythmic motion. Many metering practices have conventional metering constructions, specific associations between sounding features, patterns of felt beats, and paths of motion through these beats. Drawing on concepts from cognitive science and performance studies, I explore how this embodied knowledge is constituted and applied in both planning of musical phrases by a performer, and in-time perception and cognition of musical rhythms by any listener or participant.

Metering constructions and practices are often performed by and associated with certain communities and identities. I take a culturally-situated approach to meter and felt motion, studying traditions of embodied movement and bodily discipline including headbanging in heavy metal (Chapter 1), characteristic dance rhythm topics in non-dance concert music of the eighteenth century (Chapter 2), motivic manipulation and developing variation in late Romantic chamber music (Chapters 3 and 4), and prosody and speech gestures in operatic recitative (Chapter 5). Contrary to many existing theories of meter, I argue that our feelings of beat are not necessarily organized in cyclical grids, but are improvised on the spot by stitching together familiar motions. I also explore how movements often embody and perform aesthetic ideologies and cultural meanings, with these hermeneutic frameworks often shaping listeners’ choice of movements, their proprioception of their own movements, and their perception of the qualities of rhythm and motion in the music they are listening to.

Title A Night at the Opera: Performance, Theatricality, and Identity in the Music of Queen Type Book Whole
Year (up) 2019 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 174
Keywords David Bowie; Communication and the arts; Ethnicity; Gender; Heavy metal; Nationality; Queen (band); Rock music; Sexuality; Theatricality
Abstract Many discussions of the rock band Queen (vocalist Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, drummer Roger Taylor, and bassist John Deacon) reference their theatricality, yet few analyze what makes Queen’s music and performances theatrical. Through examining Queen’s theatricality from different angles, this thesis shows the different layers of Queen’s performativity and its relationship to identity.

After an introductory chapter that surveys the literature about Queen, the second chapter of the thesis analyzes the theatricality of Queen’s music from a stylistic basis. The chapter begins by addressing Queen’s camp theatricality through their use of music hall, operetta, and musical theatre styles. It then addresses their drama-based theatricality through their use of opera and film music styles. The third chapter analyzes Queen’s performance of gender and sexuality through their use of different genres. It first discusses Queen’s participation in the genre of glam rock, in which they performed a more feminine persona, but were still understood as heterosexual. Then it explores Queen’s disco and funk influenced music and Mercury’s “castro clone” image as simultaneously a more masculine and more homosexual performance. Finally the chapter analyzes the various rock genres Queen used throughout their career in order to perform heterosexual masculinity, including hard rock, stadium rock, and heavy metal.

The fourth chapter focuses primarily on Mercury’s performance of ethnicity and nationality through his music. Taking into account his history as a first-generation Parsi Zanzibarian who immigrated to London, it first looks at his and Queen’s expressions of “Britishness” through the figure of the British pop dandy and their use of the British national anthem. Then it turns to discussing the influence of Mercury’s Persian and African heritage on select songs. Finally, it examines religion as it relates to cultural identity, specifically Mercury’s Zoroastrian heritage and the ways he used the aesthetics of heavy metal to articulate his place within that religion. The fifth chapter concludes the thesis by taking a holistic view of how all of these layers of performativity operated simultaneously, endowing Queen’s music with a deep and complex sense of theatricality.

Title Entre la profesionalización y el underground. Inicios de la escena metalera en Lima (1983-1989) Type Book Whole
Year (up) 2019 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 153
Keywords Música--Perú--Lima--Historia--1983-1989; Música rock--Perú--Lima--Historia--1983-1989; Música popular--Perú--Lima--Historia--1983-1989
Abstract La presente tesis tiene como objetivo analizar las razones que llevaron a un grupo de jóvenes limeños varones, en la década de los ochenta, a tocar metal, tanto en la variante de heavy metal tradicional como en la extrema, a la vez que busca explicar de qué manera las circunstancias de la realidad nacional, tanto económicas como sociales y políticas, influyeron en la constitución de dicho género musical como escena. Para ello, parto de dos hipótesis. Por un lado, en un contexto de globalización y desestructuración, estos jóvenes encuentran, en la oscuridad, pesadez y potencia del metal, un espacio en el que construir lazos sociales entre pares y afianzar estructuras paralelas de autonomía y poder. Por otro lado, la formación de la escena metalera se da primero en una etapa (1983-1985) de convivencia entre las bandas de metal y las de otros subgéneros del rock; y luego, en una segunda etapa (1986-1989), esta adquiere carácter independiente y se perfila en dos vertientes: una que busca la profesionalización, que eventualmente pierde terreno ante la crisis económica, y otra underground, que lograr sortear la crisis a partir de sus propios códigos, los cuales marcan el futuro de la escena.

Con el fin de poner a prueba dichas hipótesis, realicé entrevistas a participantes de la escena de la época, consulté diversos periódicos, revistas y fanzines, además de fuentes secundarias. Además de confirmar las hipótesis de investigación, esta tesis muestra, primero, que los códigos musicales (en este caso del metal) influyeron en la realidad de los jóvenes que adoptaron dicho género como seña identitaria; y, segundo, que las particularidades de la escena metalera limeña respondieron a eventos y tendencias sociales, políticas y económicas propias de la realidad peruana.

Title La Metaldad y el Habitus y Metalicus en la ciudad de Lima 1994-2014 Type Journal Article
Year (up) 2019 Publication Pluriversidad, the academic journal of Vicerrectorado Académico de la Universidad Ricardo Palma Abbreviated Journal Pluriversidad
Volume Issue 3 Pages 21
Keywords Individualism; mercantilism; fetichism; rock music; habitus-field
Abstract This study has been oriented, to identify the benefits of the qualitative method of the theory built on the different aspects of feeling and thinking of the Metaleros1 in the city of Lima, in order to analyze their impersonal relations with society. In this sense the following objective was proposed: to understand why the social life individualization, the cultural commodification and the music fetishism is reproduced in the feeling and thinking of Lima’s metaleros. An in-depth interview was conducted with 23 young adults and metaleros between aged 14 to 48 years old as a range or limit, which resulted in a non-probabilistic sample. Two conceptual categories were identified: Rockandad and Metaldad, which serve to give interpretation to the problematic raised. In addition, a conceptual theoretical instrument called pyramidal dialectic was elaborated, to give way to the explanation of the research carried out.
