STEVE WAKSMAN

ELISIE IRWIN SWEENEY PROFESSOR OF MUSIC AND PROFESSOR OF AMERICAN STUDIES

现场音乐是我们所拥有的最重要的公众集会形式之一，参加音乐活动的人群经常被认为至少具有同等的意义, if not outweighing, the character of the musical artists themselves. 在现代现场音乐的历史上，一个主要的冲动是聚集尽可能多的人群, a tendency that has an important connection to the growth of the live music business, within which big crowds equal money and profit. Yet commercial motives alone do not explain the importance of live music crowds, which also serve as an index of the varied “imagined communities” to which music gives rise. In this presentation, 我将调查现场音乐史上的四个时刻，在这些时刻，人群被赋予了重要意义，成为围绕集体身份和音乐价值的更广泛斗争的象征:瑞典音乐会歌手珍妮·林德(Jenny Lind)的U.S. tour in the early 1850s; the Beatles’ 1965 performance at New York’s Shea Stadium; Beyoncé’s 2018 headline appearance at the Coachella festival; and Taylor Swift’s current Eras tour, which is on track to become the highest-grossing concert tour of all-time.

His publications include the books Instruments of Desire: 的 Electric Guitar and the Shaping of Musical Experience (Harvard University Press, 1999), and This Ain’t the Summer of Love: Conflict and Crossover in Heavy Metal and Punk (University of California Press, 2009), 它被国际流行音乐研究协会授予伍迪·格斯里奖, U.S. 章. 他与瑞比·加罗法洛(Reebee Garofalo)合著了第六版的岩石历史教科书， Rockin’ Out: Popular Music in the U.S.A. (2014), and with Andy Bennett, he co-edited the SAGE Handbook of Popular Music (2015). His essays have appeared in such collections as the Cambridge Companion to the Guitar, Listen Again: A Momentary 历史 of Pop, Metal Rules the Globe, and 的 Relentless Pursuit of Tone: Timbre and Popular Music. WRSI电台, 的 River in Western Massachusetts, he can be heard as the “Doctor of Rock,，提供一些流行音乐史，以支持黑人历史月和妇女历史月.
