Music as a Primary Source

Why understand history through music? Music is an example of a primary source Music often captures emotions (love, anger, frustration, etc.) better than words alone Music tells us about us Our culture, our values, our dreams, etc.

The University of South Carolina has announced a course to study the artist as a social phenomenon, taking a look at the dynamics of fame and fashion in our society. Lady Gaga And The Sociology Of The Fame.

How to interpret music In order to interpret a song, start with FIVE basic questions: –Who Created the Song and Why? –What Was the Song's Historical Context? –What is the Song's Structure? –What Does The Song Mean? –What Can Songs Tell Us About People and Society?

Who Created the Song? and Why? Know something about the artist What is the song's Purpose? –publication –performance –profit How might a song transcend its original purpose?

What Was the Song's Historical Context? Examine the events taking place in the world at the time the song was written. Pay attention to features that might seem unusual because they often make perfect sense in historical context Examine the musician. Was he or she involved in any important political movements or groups.

What is the Song's Structure? Examining a song's structure is a lot like analyzing a poem. Look for: –Repetition –Figurative Language (Alliteration, Similes, Metaphors, Onomatopoeia, etc.) –Rhythm and Rhyme

What does the song mean? Go beyond the literal meaning of the words and also look for allusions, suggestions, and implied meanings. Research to see if the author of the song has commented on his work. Look at audience reactions to the song

What Can Songs Tell Us About People and Society? Songs express widely-shared values or experiences and emotions that help define a groups identity and solidarity. Songs, singers, and genres also help people construct self-images and provide models for how to behave. Song lyrics also express judgmentsand even conflictsabout lifestyles, values, and appearances.
