Most interesting. I found some guy on the web who's giving a lecture on
Rough
Music:
W. BEEZLEY, Texas Christian University
9 May: `Rough music: ritual humiliation and popular culture in
Mexico.'
There's a book of poetry called Rough Music by Deborah Digges.
I found an evening of Black music and dance entitled Rough Music:
Rough Music: A Black Artistic Experience. An evening of music and dance.
The
Brothers and Sisters of Kuumba draw from a broad range of vocal styles
and
musical idioms in presenting gospel tradition and Black vocals. The '01
Steppers
perform original steps and rhythmic hip hop. Sanders Theatre, 8 p.m.
Honore de Balzac mentions Rough Music in his Coutesan's Life:
"My friends," said Bixiou, "I see you have gathered round the wonder
of the day. Our dear Lucien has revived the Metamorphoses of Ovid.
Just as the gods used to turn into strange vegetables and other things
to seduce the ladies, he has turned the Chardon (the Thistle) into a
gentleman to bewitch--whom? Charles X.!--My dear boy," he went on,
holding Lucien by his coat button, "a journalist who apes the fine
gentleman deserves rough music. In their place," said the merciless
jester, as he pointed to Finot and Vernou, "I should take you up in my
society paper; you would bring in a hundred francs for ten columns of
fun."
Robert III had a publication entitled Rough Music:
1995 'Robert III's "Rough Music": Charivari and Diplomacy in a Medieval
Scottish
Court', The Scottish Historical
Review
74:2, 144-58.
Tuno Bungay has an album entitled 'Rough Music'
But, it does appear that Rough Music was originally from the depths of
England:
The Colonel's monument (1797) is in the parish church: a life-size young
maiden
with an extinguished torch. His descendants became Lords Ormathwaite.
The second
Lord was thought,
by the villagers, to be mistreating his wife, so they arranged for him
to
receive a concert of Rough Music. This was a common rural way of showing
disapproval: some four hundred locals
gathered outside Warfield Park and banged about with pots and pans for
several
hours.
I really must get an interesting job.
Bye for now,
Kat.
Oh, before I forget:
http://www.zero-k.demon.co.uk/stooth_uke.htm
They are selling Swagger, Beatsongs, Life Model, and Rough Music for £4
each.
Thought you guys might want to know.
Kat (encore).
