- W2191991775 abstract "Christina Baade’s Victory through Harmony: The BBC and Popular Music in World War II provides tremendous insight into the BBC’s role in regulating the broadcast of popular music during the interwar period up until the end of the Second World War. Throughout its two-hundred-seventy-five pages, Baade’s monograph considers a remarkable depth of archival documents preserved at the BBC Written Archives Centre. She also utilizes outside observations from one of the BBC’s greatest critics, the weekly Melody Maker Magazine . Baade organizes the eight chapters of her book chronologically, discussing the challenges the BBC faced in providing an appropriate soundtrack to the war. Being a central institution of British life, the BBC provided news coverage and various forms of entertainment to over eighty percent of Britons by the end of the war. A responsibility not taken lightly, the BBC assumed responsibility for unifying the British nation. The BBC regarded music purely for its functional purpose, as a source of entertainment that would motivate people on the home front and overseas to engage with the war efforts. Dubbed the “people’s war,” everybody had a role to fulfill during World War II, whether it be facing the call of conscription or working long hours in factories, and the BBC had the difficult task of appealing to the masses. Baade argues, “While the BBC’s broadcast of popular music could be understood as furthering unifying, populist aims conveyed in the slogan Victory through Harmony, it also revealed the dissonances and discords of the nation.”(Page 4) By viewing the war effort from the perspective of the BBC, we are able to gain valuable insight into World War II Britain and how popular music supported the nation’s efforts toward victory." @default.
