• W2590380954 abstract "Squeeze This!: A Cultural History of Accordion in America. By Marion Jacobson. Folklore Studies in a Multicultural World. (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2012. Pp. xi + 256, 35 color photographs, 33 black-andwhite photographs, 1 line drawing, 3 tables, notes, index.)The is one of most common instruments in United States, but has attracted relatively little scholarly attention, so Marion Jacobson's Squeeze This! is a particularly welcome addition to literature. As Jacobson explains, it is seen as too 'folk' for musicologists to study . . . yet is not 'other' enough to attract ethnomusicologists (p. 7). This book is specifically about piano accordion, and other familiar varieties, such as button accordion, are mentioned only as they contribute to an understanding of piano accordion.Jacobson refers to her work as a biography which examines the as a thing with a 'social life,' career and networks of exchange (p. 5). She sees as technology, describing its design, manufacture and marketing, and development into an American cultural icon. Arranged chronologically, Jacobson's book also tells history of piano from its invention in mid-nineteenth-century Europe, to its emergence in American cities, use in vaudeville, extraordinary rise in popularity around mid-century, decline with rock revolution, and re-emergence and vitality in contemporary popular music. Her goal is not to tell this history as a smooth arc of rise, fall, and revival, but to explore common threads and disjunctions of all different communities, regions, and phases of accordion's life (p. 12).The first chapter, Advent of Piano Accordion, traces evolution of free-reed instruments into an with a piano-style keyboard for right hand and Stradella System of bass notes and chords arranged in rows of buttons for left hand. Italy became a major center for manufacturing accordions, with many exported to United States. Also, Italian immigrants brought their accordionmaking skills with them to New York, Chicago, and especially San Francisco. The became an important instrument in vaudeville and was also featured in dance bands, on recordings, and on radio.The second chapter, Squeezebox Bach, investigates the ideologies and ideas connected to effort to improve both instrument and its perception by classical music world (p. 51). There was a struggle to raise performance standards of piano to that of other Western art music instruments. The American Accordionists Association (AAA) was formed in 1938 to advance by holding competitions and publishing literature of service to accordionists. Jacobson describes an accordion industrial complex as an integrated network of manufacturers and teaching studios that sold accordions and music. Top performers and teachers served as artist representatives for manufacturers, and their private studios sprang up across country, particularly on East Coast, West Coast, and in Midwest. Accordion orchestras formed in places where studio system was most successful. The AAA commissioned new works from American composers. In spite of these efforts, remained outside mainstream of classical music world. …" @default.
