| Tiivistelmä: | In this essay, explored are the implications of a common trope about music, leisure and labour. Close attention to the work involved in learning and performing (here as: l-and-p.) music can expand our understanding of the multiple ways in which music creates value. ... Two historical case studies from the late 19th and early 20th century U.S. provide the evidence for the essay's argument(s). Examined are the overlapping discourses of musical effort and work in the world of female parlour pianists in the middle-class home and among academic folksong collectors and some of the southern musicians whom they courted as informants. It is concluded by suggesting what music history might look like if we chose to place the work of l-and-p. music at the centre of the story. |
