Mormonism and Music: A History

Mormonism and Music: A History
Winner of the 1989 Award in Criticism from the Association for Mormon Letters Music has flourished in the Mormon church since its beginning. In this book--now available in paperback--Michael Hicks examines the direction that music's growth has taken since 1830. He looks closely at topics including the denomination's first official hymnals; the views of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young on singing; the Mormon Tabernacle Choir; and the changing attitudes of church officialdom and laity toward popular and non-Western music styles.

Written on the Body: The Tattoo in European and American History by Jane Caplan,
Written on the Body: The Tattoo in European and American History by Jane Caplan,
Despite the social sciences' growing fascination with tattooing--and the immense popularity of tattoos themselves--the practice has not left much of a historical record. And, until very recently, there was no good context for writing a serious history of tattooing in the West. This collection exposes, for the first time, the richness of the tattoo's European and American history from antiquity to the present day. In the process, it rescues tattoos from their stereotypical and sensationalized association with criminality. The tattoo has long hovered in a space between the cosmetic and the punitive. Throughout its history, the status of the tattoo has been complicated by its dual association with slavery and penal practices on the one hand and exotic or forbidden sexuality on the other. The tattoo appears often as an involuntary stigma, sometimes as a self-imposed marker of identity, and occasionally as a beautiful corporal decoration. This volume analyzes the tattoo's fluctuating, often uncomfortable position from multiple angles. Individual chapters explore fascinating segments of its history--from the metaphorical meanings of tattooing in Celtic society to the class-related commodification of the body in Victorian Britain, from tattooed entertainers in Germany to tattooing and piercing as self-expression in the contemporary United States. But they also accumulate to form an expansive, textured view of permanent bodily modification in the West. By combining empirical history, powerful cultural analysis, and a highly readable style, this volume both draws on and propels the ongoing effort to write a meaningful cultural history of the body. The contributors, representing severaldisciplines, have all conducted extensive original research into the Western tattoo. Together, they have produced an unrivalled account of its history.

Western Music Association - The Western Music Association was incorporated in 1989 to promote western music as well as the history and literature of the American West.

Western music - Western music is a broad category of music that includes all musical genres that use a 12-note chromatic scale, including Western classical music, rock and roll, and many other forms of popular music. The word Western may be misleading; although much of this music came from Europe and music of the United States, important contributions have come from places like Russia, Japan, and Australia.

The National Association for Music Education - MENC: The National Association for Music Education, also referred to as the National Music Educators Association and formerly called Music Educators' National Conference, is an organization based out of Reston, Virginia which is focused on the advancement of music education, both as a profession and the assurance of music education as part of the core curriculum across the United States.

Music Teachers National Association - Founded in 1876 by Theodore Presser and sixty-two colleagues in Delaware, Ohio, the mission of Music Teachers National Association is to advance the value of music study and music making to society and to support the professionalism of music teachers.
