{"product_id":"paul-robesons-voices-1","title":"Paul Robeson's Voices","description":"Paul Robeson's Voices is a meditation on Robeson's singing, a study of the artist's life in song. Music historian Grant Olwage examines Robeson's voice as it exists in two broad and intersecting domains: as sound object and sounding gesture, specifically how it was fashioned in the contexts of singing practices, in recital, concert, and recorded performance, and as subject of identification. Olwage asks: how does the voice encapsulate modes of subjectivity, of being?\n\nCombining deep archival research with musicological theory, this book is a study of voice as central to Robeson's sense of self and his politics. Paul Robeson's Voices charts the dialectal process of Robeson's vocal and self-discovery, documenting some of the ways Robeson's practice revised the traditions of concert singing in the first half of the twentieth century and how his voice manifested as resistance.","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47811882451288,"sku":"9780197637470","price":103.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/paul-robesons-voices-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
