Ethnomusicology on Humanities Commons 5 years, 11 months agoBrass bands in Africa have been in existence since the 19th century after the various colonial powers had established their presence across the continent.

Festivals, Rituals, Public Spectacles, and Popular Culture on Humanities Commons 6 years agoExtending Audre Lorde’s intuition around the polysemy of the term recreation, I put forward this concept as an organizational principle.

Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years agoMark, there is a lot of stuff on form more generally, which may contain info about bridges within each article. (The only one I know entirely about the bridge is the one that Keith mentions above.) Check out the stuff on form in our bibliography: https://hcommons-staging.org/docs/popular-music-bibliography/

Keith Salley replied to the topic Analysis of the bridge in the discussion
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years agoHi Mark
The first thing that comes to mind is Steve Larson’s article “What Makes a Good Bridge,” from the Dutch Journal of Music Theory (8: 1–15). If memory serves, it explores ‘bridge’ as a metaphor, and uses Gershwin’s “I Got Rhythm” as an example. Perhaps this isn’t the repertoire you’re really looking for, but it’s worth reading.
Best of luck.
