Sonic Ruins of Modernity : Judeo-Spanish Folksongs Today Paperback / softback
by Edwin Seroussi
Part of the SOAS Studies in Music series
Paperback / softback
Description
Sonic Ruins of Modernity shows how social, cultural and cognitive phenomena interact in the making and distribution of folksongs beyond their time.
Through Judeo-Spanish (or Ladino) folksongs, the author illustrates a methodology for the interplay of individual memories, artistic initiatives, political and media policies, which ultimately shape “tradition” for the past century.
He fleshes out in a series of case studies how folksongs can be conceived, performed and circulated in the post-tradition era – constituting each song as a “sonic ruin,” as an imagined place.
At the same time, the book overall provides a unique perspective on the history of the Judeo-Spanish folksong.
