The phrase music history likely summons up images of long-dead composers smug men in wigs and waistcoats and people dancing without touching. In Music: A Subversive History Gioia responds to the false notions that undergird this tedium. Traditional histories of music Gioia contents downplay those elements of music that are considered disreputable or irrational-its deep connections to sexuality magic trance and alternative mind states healing social control generational conflict political unrest even violence and murder. They suppress the stories of the outsiders and rebels who created musical revolutions and instead celebrate the mainstream assimilators who borrowed innovations diluted their impact and disguised their sources. Here Gioia attempts to reclaim music history for the riffraff the insurgents and provocateurs-the real drivers of change and innovation. In Music Gioia tells the four-thousand-year history of music as a source of power change upheaval and enchantment. He shows how social outcasts have repeatedly become the great trailblazers of musical expression: slaves and their descendants for instance have repeatedly reinvented music in America and elsewhere from ragtime blues jazz R&B to bossa nova soul and hip hop. A revolutionary and revisionist account Music: A Subversive History is essential reading for anyone interested in the meaning of music.
