Few opportunities existed at that time to bring new music into the community or to share local music more widely. When commerce and the media began to dominate the music scene with the phonograph and, later, the radio, exchanges among musicians and fans transcended the local and broadened spheres of influence and radically altered the musical landscape. presents new insights into the musical practices and traditions of late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century rural Northern New England - a context that includes traditional ballads and hymns and, surprisingly, popular songs and commercial dance music. Jennifer C. Post lets the voices of ordinary people - the participants - tell us about their music and cultural history. Their stories are infused with issues of concern to ethnomusicologists, historians, and social scientists about landscape and community, gendered expression, imagined traditions, and historical representation.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Univ of New Hampshire","offers":[{"title":"Music in Rural New England Family and Community Life, 1870-1940 | Jennifer C Post | Hardcover | 9781584654155 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks A 1749825","offer_id":48882204639384,"sku":"1749825","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/519ai-GnklL.jpg?v=1776442036","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/music-in-rural-new-england-family-and-community-life-1870-1940","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
