Looking at it soberly, building an independent music career in today’s tumultuous industry climate appears little more than a pipe dream. The so-called “experts” are either teaching musicians the thoroughly hopeless and ineffectual approach of going viral as a social media megastar, or the long, complicated, torturous path to building direct marketing digital sales funnels that leave more artists disappointed and disillusioned than not.

Cultural Sustainabilities: Music, Media, Language, Advocacy Edited by Timothy J. Cooley PDF [EN] screenshot
2019 | University of Illinois Press | ISBN: 9780252051203 | 2.4 MB | 364 Pages | PDF
Environmental sustainability and human cultural sustainability are inextricably linked. Reversing damaging human impact on the global environment is ultimately a cultural question, and as with politics, the answers are often profoundly local. Timothy J. Cooley presents twenty-three essays by musicologists and ethnomusicologists, anthropologists, folklorists, ethnographers, documentary filmmakers, musicians, artists, and activists, each asking a particular question or presenting a specific local case study about cultural and environmental sustainability. Contributing to the environmental humanities, the authors embrace and even celebrate human engagement with ecosystems, though with a profound sense of collective responsibility created by the emergence of the Anthropocene.

How Language Speaks to Music: Prosody from a Cross-Domain Perspective Ed. by Mathias Scharinger and Richard Wiese EPUB [EN] screenshot
2022 | De Gruyter | ISBN: 9783110770186 | 3.5 MB | 274 Pages | EPUB
Prosody as a system of suprasegmental linguistic information such as rhythm and intonation is a prime candidate for looking at the relation between language and music in a principled way. This claim is based on several aspects:
First, prosody is concerned with acoustic correlates of language and music that are directly comparable with each other by their physical properties such as duration and pitch.
Second, prosodic accounts suggest a hierarchical organization of prosodic units that not only resembles a syntactic hierarchy, but is viewed as (part of) an interface to syntax.
Third, prosody provides a very promising ground for evolutionary accounts of language and music.
Fourth, bilateral transfer effects between language and music are best illustrated on the level of prosody.

Harnessed: How Language and Music Mimicked Nature and Transformed Ape to Man by Mark Changizi EPUB [EN] screenshot
2011 | BenBella Books | ISBN: 9781935618539 | 1.8 MB | 216 Pages | EPUB
The scientific consensus is that our ability to understand human speech has evolved over hundreds of thousands of years. After all, there are whole portions of the brain devoted to human speech. We learn to understand speech too quickly and with almost no training and can seamlessly absorb enormous amounts of information simply by hearing it. Surely we evolved this capability over thousands of generations.

Stravinsky’s Piano: Genesis of a Musical Language by Graham Griffiths PDF [EN] screenshot
2013 | Cambridge University Press | ISBN: 9781139017954 | 8.5 MB | 356 Pages | PDF
Stravinsky's reinvention in the early 1920s, as both neoclassical composer and concert-pianist, is here placed at the centre of a fundamental reconsideration of his whole output – viewed from the unprecedented perspective of his relationship with the piano. Graham Griffiths assesses Stravinsky's musical upbringing in St Petersburg with emphasis on his education at the hands of two extraordinary teachers whom he later either ignored or denounced: Leokadiya Kashperova, for piano and Rimsky-Korsakov, for instrumentation.
