Series Statement: Refiguring American Music : 25

Content: In Songbooks, critic and scholar Eric Weisbard offers a critical guide to books on American popular music from William Billings's 1770 New-England Psalm-Singer to Jay-Z's 2010 memoir Decoded. Drawing on his background editing the Village Voice music section, coediting the Journal of Popular Music Studies, and organizing the Pop Conference, Weisbard connects American music writing from memoirs, biographies, and song compilations to blues novels, magazine essays, and academic studies. The authors of these works are as diverse as the music itself: women, people of color, queer writers, self-educated scholars, poets, musicians, and elites discarding their social norms. Whether analyzing books on Louis Armstrong, the Beatles, and Madonna; the novels of Theodore Dreiser, Gayl Jones, and Jennifer Egan; or varying takes on blackface minstrelsy, Weisbard charts an alternative history of American music as told through its writing. As Weisbard demonstrates, the most enduring work pursues questions that linger across time period and genre-cultural studies in the form of notes on the fly, on sounds that never cease to change meaning.

Uniform Title: Blues all around me 〈dt.〉

Content: 1925 als Riley B. King im Missisippi-Delta geboren, wurde B. B. stilbildender Musiker des Blues (John Lennon wünschte sich, so Gitarre spielen zu können wie er). Seine Autobiographie schreibt er "aus der Erinnerung meines Herzens" und sie handelt von seinen beiden Leidenschaften, der Musik und den Frauen (15 Kindern von 15 verschiedenen Frauen bedeuten vermutlich ein erhöhtes Betreuungs- und Versorgungsproblem!). B. B. King erlebte in seiner Jugendzeit, in der er sich als Baumwollpflücker selbständig versorgte, noch die Plantagenbosse als absolutistische Herrscher mit Sklavenhaltermentalität und erfuhr Rassismus am eigenen Leibe. Die lesenswerte, zu Teilen auch poetische Autobiographie ist auch ein Stück Sozialgeschichte des Jazz. Breit empfohlen. (2) (LK/S: Voss-Krueger)

Content: Sein Elternhaus ist arm, seine Kindheit freudlos, sein Vater ein Despot. Doch eines kann Lang Lang schon in jungen Jahren: unvergleichlich gut Klavier spielen. Sein Talent trägt ihn auf die Bühnen der Welt. Die faszinierende Geschichte eines Starpianisten, der seine Karriere vor allem seiner innigen Liebe zur Musik verdankt. Schon als Zweijähriger bekommt Lang Lang von seinen Eltern ein Piano geschenkt - und beginnt sofort zu spielen. Als er wenig später im Fernsehen Tom und Jerry bei der Aufführung eines rasanten Klavierkonzerts zusieht, gerät er endgültig in den Bann der Musik. Er hat nur noch einen Wunsch: Er will ein großer Pianist werden. Stunden um Stunden verbringt er am Klavier. Während er die Stücke der Klassiker spielt, entfalten sich vor seinen Augen die bunten Geschichten, die er in seinem Leben vermisst. Denn sein Vater setzt alles daran, ihn zum Weltstar zu machen - und so besteht Lang Langs Kindheit vor allem aus Disziplin und harter Arbeit, immer mit der Angst im Nacken, durch das eigene Scheitern die Familie ins Unglück zu stürzen. Dank seines Talents und seines Fleißes schafft er es, sein Klavierspiel so zu perfektionieren, dass er mit neun Jahren am Pekinger Konservatorium aufgenommen wird und nationale wie internationale Wettbewerbe gewinnt. Die Welt öffnet sich ihm, und schließlich zieht er mit seinem Vater in die USA, wo ihm 1999 mit 17 Jahren der internationale Durchbruch gelingt. Die Geschichte einer einzigartigen Karriere - und eine Hommage an die Faszination der Musik.

Note: Lang Lang, geboren 1982 im chinesischen Shenyang, gewann bereits mit fünf Jahren seinen ersten Klavierwettbewerb. Heute gehört er zu den Stars der Musikwelt. Zahlreiche Konzertreisen und Fernsehauftritte machten ihn über die Grenzen der Klassik hinaus bekannt. David Ritz hat bereits mit vielen namhaften Künstlern zusammengearbeitet, darunter Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye und Aretha Franklin. Er hat an mehreren Autobiographien und Biographien mitgewirkt und wurde mit einem Grammy ausgezeichnet.
