Brass Bands of the World: Militarism, Colonial Legacies, and Local Music Making
Bands structured around western wind instruments are among the most widespread instrumental ensembles in the world. Although these ensembles draw upon European military traditions that spread globally through colonialism, militarism and missionary work, local musicians have adapted the brass band prototype to their home settings, and today these ensembles are found in religious processions and funerals, military manoeuvres and parades, and popular music genres throughout the world. Based on their expertise in ethnographic and archival research, the contributors to this volume present a series of essays that examine wind band cultures from a range of disciplinary perspectives, allowing for a ...

Bandas de Música: intersecções históricas, identitárias e educacionais
Bandas de Música: intersecções históricas, identitárias e educacionais traz os mais recentes estudos aprofundados abrangendo o amplo universo da Banda de Música brasileira. Pesquisas no campo da musicologia, da análise musical, da história, do identitarismo e da educação musical estruturam a obra. Seus autores, cientes de que a práticas de banda, seu ensino, acervos e repertórios se interconectam, também a evidenciam como formas públicas de fazer musical e conectada às comunidades em que atua. Notoriamente por estar presente na sociedade brasileira em dimensões de caráter público, coletivo e educacional, a Banda de Música com suas linguagens e regionalismos, é revelada como valioso dispositivo de análise e investigação. Os textos, aqui expostos mostram como esses grupos vêm sendo percorridos e examinados através de aspectos, concepções e recortes distintos, oferecendo compreensão abrangente sobre sua realidade.

Music, Theater, and Society in the Comedies of Luiz Carlos Martins Penna (1833-1846)
This book clarifies the musical dramaturgy of comedy writer and musician Luiz Carlos Martins Penna (1815-48) – a notion that encompasses both the theatrical text and its performance. The corpus for this analysis is composed of twelve comedies by Martins Penna written between 1833 and 1846, divided into three groups, which I have called Lundu, Aria, and Alleluia. The sound universe made up by the three groups of comedies covers African-Brazilian genres and musical-choreographic styles (batuque, fado, lundu, miudinho, muquirão), the transnational urban popular universe (lundu, tirana, quadrilha, marcha, waltz, caxuxa, tonadilla, polka), and modinhas and Italian opera, in addition to r...

Chemical Biology of Sterols, Triterpenoids and Other Natural Products
Sterols and other isoprenoids are of great interest for their molecular structure and function in cell architecture and evolution, as well as for their importance in medicine and agriculture. Molecules’ 2019 Festschrift Special Issue in honor of the 65th birthday of Prof. W. David Nes, an internationally recognized chemical biologist and recipient of the George Schroepher medal for sterol research, focuses on recent developments in the chemistry, biosynthesis, and function of these polycyclic natural products. This volume of Molecules contains 16 leading-edge review articles and original research contributions from an international cast of scientists. This volume is grouped into three sections: (i) isoprenoid metabolome and diversity, (ii) clinical evaluation of sterol and triterpene structures and biosynthesis, and (iii) methods and synthesis of steroids and other compounds. The volume will be a valuable reference tool for those who study medicinal chemistry, protein chemistry, and biochemistry of isoprenoid lipids.
