Exoticism in multicultural choral repertoire: A comparison
of Lydia Adams Mikmaq Honour Song and Stephen Hatfields Nukapianguaq Canadian Music Educator / Musicien Educateur Au Canada, 56(4): 30-34. Jeremie Brisson touches on some theories of multicultural music education; he also compares Lydia Adams Mikmaq Honour Song and Stephen Hatfields Nukapianguaq and their approaches of non-western musical material. He quotes Deborah Bradleys theory of multicultural human subjectivity: learning world music can build communities and music performers can provide a commonality of experience that breaks barriers of race and religion, etc. In response to this, I can relate this article to Dr. Veblens chapter of Community music making: challenging the stereotypes of music education. Veblen mentions the biggest challenge is to combine both community music and music education to work programs to be accessible for all. There is a connection because learning multicultural music leads to community music. It brings people together without judgment and without discrimination. However, universities and conservatories do not teach multicultural music, its not part of the formal education. As a first year undergraduate student, we are not exposed to the music of different cultures. The only multicultural aspect in our repertoire is the fact that Vivaldi was Italian and Tchaikovsky was Russian. In addition to that, the music we are taught is from hundreds of years old. Cultures and customs change overtime and therefore the music from these cultures also change. If music performers can provide commonality of experience that transcends socially constructed boundaries, how can we portray that if we are not being taught the different multicultural music? Brisson brings up an excellent point about learning and teaching multicultural music. If a teacher brings in music from a different culture to a classroom they know nothing about, the teacher needs to do extra research on that specific culture to ensure that the music is respectfully presented. Looking at it from the other side, if a teacher were to teach music from the Hispanic culture but knows nothing about it, I would be offended because that teacher wouldnt be accurately representing the Hispanic culture. There is beauty in every culture and the music that represents that culture has a lot of meaning in it; it forms a community.
