"The Arena Concert: Music, Media and Mass Entertainment is the first sustained engagement with what might said to be - in its melding of concert and gathering, in its evolving relationship with digital and social media, in its delivery of event, experience, technology and star - the art form of the 21st century. This volume offers interviews with key designers, discussions of the practicalities of mounting arena concerts, mixing and performing live to a mass audience, recollections of the giants of late twentieth century music in performance, and critiques of latter-day pretenders to the throne. The authors track the evolution of the arena concert, consider design and architecture, celebrity and fashion, and turn to feminism, ethnographic research, and ideas of humour, liveness and authenticity, in order to explore and frame the arena concert. The arena concert becomes the ?real time? centre of a global digital network, and the gig-goer pays not only for an immersion in (and, indeed, role in) its spectacular nature, but also for a close encounter with the performers, in this contained and exalted space. The spectacular nature of the arena concert raises challenges that have yet to be fully technologically overcome, and has given rise to a reinvention of what live music actually means. Love it or loathe it, the arena concert is a major presence in the cultural landscape of the 21st century. This volume finds out why."--

In this rich visual history of the vibrant live music scene in Austin and elsewhere during the 1970s and early 1980s, Casey's lens reveals both the stage, awash in spotlights and crowd noise, and the more intimate, backstage moments, where entertainers hold forth to interviewers and friends. As Outlaw Country's cosmic cowboys mixed with East Coast rockers, Chicago bluesmen, and West Coast hippies, Watt Casey roamed at will, capturing on film the people, places, and happenings that blended to foster Austin's emerging reputation as "Live Music Capital of the World."--Publisher.

Depuis son émergence au xviiie siècle, le concert est devenu un lieu central de l'activité musicale, aussi bien pour les musiciens que pour le public. Les transformations profondes que cette forme d'exécution et d'appropriation de la musique a connues pendant les deux derniers siècles et qui déterminent nos propres rapports à la musique, sont susceptibles d'éclairer une histoire des pratiques liées à la musique entre 1780 et le début du xxe siècle. Dans une démarche pluridisciplinaire et comparative centrée sur la France, l'Allemagne et l'Angleterre, les directions présentées dans cet ouvrage dessinent le cadre d'une première approche cherchant à ouvrir le fait musical à l'ensemble des questionnements qui, depuis quelques décennies, ont renouvelé tant l'histoire sociale que l'histoire des faits de culture. Les enjeux économiques, les acteurs qui contribuent à l'évolution de la vie de concert, l'ancrage spatial du concert, les modes d'appropriation et d'écoute de la musique constituent les grandes interrogations qui servent de trame au livre. Le marché de l'édition musicale et la presse, l'agent de concert et les sociétés de musique, la salle de concert et le kiosque, le public, sa composition sociale et ses comportements face à la musique, sont autant d'éléments analysés dans les contributions rassemblées. En abordant le thème du concert sous l'angle d'une histoire socioculturelle de la musique, ce volume se veut une tentative pour décloisonner approches musicologiques, sociologiques et historiques de la musique.
