The first bibliography devoted to a single jazz genre or era, Fire
Music is concerned with the music of the jazz avant-gardists such
as John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman, Cecil Taylor, and Sun Ra. It
makes accessible the most extensive and up-to-date scholarship of
the New Jazz beginning in the 1950s. Included are materials on such
topics as jazz collectives and the New York loft scene, as well as
jazz in specific countries and regions and a lengthy section of
biographical and critical studies on more than 400 artists and
ensembles from around the world. Organized by subject and artist,
the over 7,100 sources are further divided by type of materials,
including films, video, and audio cassettes as well as books,
dissertations, and journal and newspaper articles in all major
Western languages. A New Jazz Chronology places events in the jazz
world in a social, political, and musical context; and a section on
African-American Cultural History and the Arts provides background
materials. Appendixes offer general reference sources, a directory
of archives and research centers, and lists that classify artists
by country and instrument. Indexes of artists, subjects, and
authors complete the work.
This is a comprehensive guide to the black experience both on film
and behind the camera. More than 6,000 entries documenting global
film activity from 1919 to 1990 offer historical perspective on the
black image in film, bibliographical material on filmmakers and
individual artists, and exciting information on newly emerging
talent throughout the world. Drawing on a wide variety of resource
materials, the study furnishes extensive coverage of developments
in filmmaking in Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, Europe, and the
Caribbean, followed by a thorough examination of the
African-American film experience. Two appendixes provide
supplementary data on reference works, and names and addresses of
notable film resource centers. Four indexes keyed by artist, title,
subject, and author complete the work, which proves to be a
valuable reference work for scholars and historians in the field of
blacks in film.
African Music is devoted to ethnographic, anthropological,
musicological, and popular studies of sub-Saharan African music
from the 1890s to the present. The bibliography is organized into
six basic sections. Section one covers works on cultural policy and
the performing arts in sub-Saharan Africa, while section two
provides a selected guide to works on ethnomusicology. Section
three, the largest, deals with general works and regional/country
studies of traditional sub-Saharan musics, defined most simply as
the local village or rural musics of West, Central, Southern, and
East Africa. General and regional/country studies of African pop
music as well as biographical and critical studies of 275 popular
musicians and groups are covered in section four. Section five
focuses on the acculturated or art music traditions of Africa's
Westernized elite, citing both general works and
biographical/critical studies on African composers and performers.
The sixth, and final, music section covers general studies on
African church, or liturgical music. The items cited in these six
sections range from books, dissertations, unpublished papers, and
periodical and newspaper articles, to films, videotapes, and
audiotapes in all of the major Western languages as well as several
African ones. The three appendixes deal, respectively, with
reference works on African music and culture; archives and research
centers; and a selected discography listing both traditional and
popular music recordings and outlets where they may be found. Four
indexes--ethnic group, subject, artist and author--complete the
work and provide a key to its 5,800 entries. By covering works from
1732 to the present, African Music offers not only the most
up-to-date scholarship on the subject, but also the most
comprehensive coverage currently available. It offers a
much-needed, and long overdue resource for students, scholars, and
librarians seeking to understand the musics of sub-Saharan Africa.
