The authors have attempted to produce, in ideal-type form, a description of some of rules, constructs and procedures used by enthusiasts in hearing a piece of music as being the country-blues. In this, we have attempted to analytically formalize or explicate some of socialized competences that must potentially be employed and displayed if a person is to warrantably claim bona fide membership of the community of blues enthusiasts to other members of that circle. Demonstrated and occasioned use of these competences is what is involved in doing being an enthusiast. The aspects of these competences which we have analysed are
Art · Art history · Blues · Music History and Culture · Musicology and Musical Analysis · Theater, Performance, and Music History
