Two Fatimas and their songs: Evoking local identity through traditional Bulgarian song. - 221 p.

Adviser: David Locke.

Thesis (M.A.)--Tufts University, 2009.

In all cultures, traditional song emerges from the confluence of particular events and circumstances. Over time, everyday incidents are recorded in everyday language, flavored by the inflections of local poetic convention. Those texts are attached to a musical framework that itself adheres to the prevailing local musical dialect. The resulting songs are then performed by the people who created them, in a manner which incorporates locally accepted patterns of vocal timbre, gesture, and deportment. Finally, those song performances are experienced by an audience that originates from the same milieu as the songs themselves, and that therefore anticipates and understands the textual discourse, the musical dialect, and the performative behavior of the singers.

520 $a In all cultures, traditional song emerges from the confluence of particular events and circumstances. Over time, everyday incidents are recorded in everyday language, flavored by the inflections of local poetic convention. Those texts are attached to a musical framework that itself adheres to the prevailing local musical dialect. The resulting songs are then performed by the people who created them, in a manner which incorporates locally accepted patterns of vocal timbre, gesture, and deportment. Finally, those song performances are experienced by an audience that originates from the same milieu as the songs themselves, and that therefore anticipates and understands the textual discourse, the musical dialect, and the performative behavior of the singers.
520 $a This scenario of traditional song as an instance of identity dialogue is not unique to the village of Grasevo. Furthermore, traditional song is not the only medium within which identity dialogue occurs; one can communicate aspects of one's identity via manner of dress, spoken language, facial expression -- the list could go on and on. My intention in this paper is to demonstrate that traditional song, at least as performed in 2007-8 in Grasevo, remains an important vehicle both for expressing and for confirming local identity. That local identity is layered and comprises aspects of religious affiliation, strong ties to extended family, the physical demands of a rural lifestyle, respect for one's elders, interdependence within the local community, and physical, social, and economic isolation from the urban mainstream.
520 $a As supplemental material, all of the songs I recorded in Grasevo from Fatima Bosnakova and Fatima Dospatska have been included in this thesis on a separate CD. These songs are the raw material from which this thesis was created. The reader is urged to listen to these recordings in order to gain a fuller understanding of the sonic gestalt of Grasevo song.
