Performances of music in many styles-classical, rock 'n' roll, folk, blues, and jazz-competed with those by traveling Soviet and mainland Chinese artists, enhancing the prestige of American culture. These concerts offered audiences around the world evidence of America's improving race relations, excellent musicianship, and generosity toward other peoples. Through personal contacts and the media, musical diplomacy also created subtle musical, social, and political relationships on a global scale. Although born of state-sponsored tours often conceived as propaganda ventures, these relationships were in themselves great diplomatic achievements and constituted the essence of America's soft power. Using archival documents and newly collected oral histories, Danielle Fosler-Lussier shows that musical diplomacy had vastly different meanings for its various participants, including government officials, musicians, concert promoters, and audiences. Through the stories of musicians from Louis Armstrong and Marian Anderson to orchestras and college choirs, Fosler-Lussier deftly explores the value and consequences of "musical diplomacy." 410 0$aCalifornia studies in 20th-century music. 606 $aMusic in intercultural communication$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aArts and diplomacy$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMusic and globalization$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zCommunist countries$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xCultural policy$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aCommunist countries$xForeign relations$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMusic in intercultural communication$xHistory 615 0$aArts and diplomacy$xHistory 615 0$aMusic and globalization$xHistory 676 $a780.78/73 686 $aLQ 89307$2rvk 700 $aFosler-Lussier$b Danielle$f1969-$01040315 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463685903321 996 $aMusic in America's Cold War diplomacy$92463067 997 $aUNINA
