Campus Chords: Devotional Harmonies and the Dissonance of Difference in the University of Michigan’s Songbook
A Making Michigan webinar featuring musicologist Mark Clague
Learn the origin stories of Michigan's traditional songs, as well as the social functions of songs and singing on campus. Discover how racism and sexism are heard in American popular music and how it echoes in the University's own historical songbook today. In this Making Michigan presentation Mark Clague, Associate Dean of the School of Music, Theatre & Dance, will discuss these and other aspects of the U-M songbook, illustrating points with music recorded for his class on this same topic and for this occasion itself. The session is sponsored by the Bentley Historical Library and will be moderated by Gary Krenz.
