  • Folklife, Heritage, and the Environment

    Jeff Todd Titon, Jeff Todd TıtonARTICLEJournal of American Folklore2024Cited by: 7References: 26

    From a folklife perspective, I address consequences of thinking of the environment as natural capital that provides ecosystem services to people: services that include heritage, both cultural and natural. I examine contemporary environmental policy to reveal advantages and limitations in thinking of folklife and heritage as ecosystem services, and a need to think beyond ecosystem services to ways that folklore studies may contribute to ecojustice…

    Open AccessJeff Todd Titon, Jeff Todd TıtonARTICLEMusicological Annual2019

    Svanibor Pettan is that rare kind of gentleman who immediately puts his acquaintances at ease and encourages them to feel as if they'd known him for a long time. These qualities have enabled him to succeed in helping to make the world a better place through music, and in helping his colleagues in Europe and abroad to mobilize around the field of applied ethnomusicology. For Svanibor, this has meant taking ethnomusicology beyond mere scholarship –…

  • Exhibiting Music in a Sound Community

    Jeff Todd Titon, Jeff Todd TıtonARTICLEEthnologies2017

    Exhibiting music in a sound community announces the presence and potential of an ecological rationality. Two or more beings co-present to each other in sound resonate at the same frequency with one another and comprise a sound community. Co-presence in sound is intersubjective and relational, a subject-to-subject resonant and reciprocal way of knowing, rather than a subject-to-object, asymmetrical and manipulative knowledge. In a sound community …

  • Orality, Commonality, Commons, Sustainability, and Resilience

    Jeff Todd Titon, Jeff Todd TıtonARTICLEJournal of American Folklore2016Cited by: 1References: 7

    Folklore studies of orality (sound) and commonality (commons) suggest a contribution to the current heritage discourse that emphasizes collective values rather than (economic) value, stewardship rather than ownership, and resilience as a strategy to help sustain a community's expressive culture

    Huib Schippers, Svanibor Pettan et al.BOOKOxford Handbook of Applied…2015Cited by: 4

    Within its broad range of possible identities, one of the most potent incarnations of applied ethnomusicology lies in its potential to understand and support the sustainability of the intangible cultural heritage it examines. It can do this in many ways, including the now common practice of returning recordings and research findings to communities. However, over the past few years, thinking has refined on gearing material and actions in a more ta…

  • Ethnomusicology as the Study of People Making Music

    Open AccessJeff Todd Titon, Jeff Todd TıtonARTICLEMusicological Annual2015Cited by: 4References: 7

    This essay defines ethnomusicology as the study of people making music. People make sounds that are recognized as music, and people also make "music" into a cultural domain. The essay contrasts this idea of music as a contingent cultural category with earlier scientific definitions that essentialized music as an object

  • Thoreau's ear

    Jeff Todd TitonARTICLESound Studies2015Cited by: 3References: 6

    Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) was the only nineteenth-century American writer of the very first rank who paid prolonged and intense attention to sound-worlds, particularly non-human ones. As a naturalist, Thoreau's fieldwork not only involved botany but also sound-collecting. Relying on his Journal and other written work, I show how Thoreau understood music as sound, paying particular attention to his writings on ambient sound and animal sound …
