Based upon Cantometrics: An Approach to the Anthropology of Music
(1976), by Alan Lomax, Songs of Earth: Aesthetic and Social Codes
in Music is a contemporary guide to understanding and exploring
Cantometrics, the system developed by Lomax and Victor Grauer for
analyzing the formal elements of music related to human geography
and sociocultural patterning. This carefully constructed
cross-cultural study of world music revealed deep-rooted
performance patterns and aesthetic preferences and their links with
environmental factors and ancient socioeconomic practices. This new
and updated edition is for anyone wishing to understand and more
deeply appreciate the forms and sociocultural contexts of the
musics of the world's peoples, and it is designed to be used by
both scholars and laypeople. Part One of the book consists of a
practical guide to using the Cantometrics system, a course with
musical examples to test one's understanding of the material, a
theoretical framework to put the methodology in context, and an
illustration of the method used to explore the roots of popular
music. Part Two includes guides to four other analytical systems
that Lomax developed, which focus on orchestration, phrasing and
breath management, vowel articulation, instrumentation, and
American popular music. Part Three provides resources for educators
who wish to use the Cantometrics system in their classrooms, a
summary of the findings and hypotheses of Lomax's original
research, and a discussion of Cantometrics' criticisms,
applications, and new approaches, and it includes excerpts of
Lomax's original writings about world song style and cultural
equity.
