The fifteen essays of Performing History glimpse the diverse ways
music historians "do" history, and the diverse ways in which music
histories matter. This book's chapters are structured into six key
areas: historically informed performance; ethnomusicological
perspectives; particular musical works that "tell," "enact," or
"perform" war histories; operatic works that works that "tell,"
"enact," or "perform" power or enlightenment; musical works that
deploy the body and a broad range of senses to convey histories;
and histories involving popular music and performance. Diverse
lines of evidence and manifold methodologies are represented here,
ranging from traditional historical archival research to
interviewing, performing, and composing. The modes of analyzing
music and its associated texts represented here are as various as
the kinds of evidence explored, including, for example, reading
historical accounts against other contextual backdrops, and reading
"between the lines" to access other voices than those provided by
mainstream interpretation or traditional musicology.
