Title: MURESO: Notes from the Field
Author: McClure, John S., 1952
Description: In “Music, Religion, and the South: Notes from the Field,” Dr. John McClure presented the goals, themes, and emphases of the three-year project “Music, Religion, and the South.” Sponsored by the Center for the Study of Religion and Culture, the interdisciplinary research project involved a number of Vanderbilt professors and graduate students from the departments of religion, history, sociology, and ethnomusicology, among others. The researchers participated with local musicians, preachers, and religious communities to examine issues such as the culture and commercialization, (de)segregation, material culture, symbols, music, and literature of and embedded within religion in the South. John McClure explained various fieldtrips he and other researchers took, conversations they shared, and methodologies they pursued. He played several musical excerpts, many of which were from the CD produced in conjunction with the “God in Music City” project, to demonstrate particular problems, issues, or perspectives raised throughout the group’s research and experiences.
