Abstract
Esta tesis doctoral analiza la música blues como fenómeno artístico, comunicativo y sociocultural mediante un estudio comparativo de las escenas de blues en Austin, Texas y en Madrid (España), dos capitales de referencia con una relación diferenciada respecto a la tradición original del género. Conocida y promocionada como “la capital mundial de la música en vivo”, Austin está histórica, geopolítica y socioculturalmente inserta en la tradición del blues, mientras que Madrid, históricamente alejada, lleva décadas incorporándose a ella mediante una compleja práctica musical, colectiva y cotidiana. A pesar de su reconocimiento desigual (tanto en sus respectivos estados como en la cultura global del blues), las dos escenas ocupan un lugar análogo en la esfera pública underground y son muy similares en estructura y organización. Comparten prácticas sociales y musicales, textos, discursos, relatos, imaginarios y formas de expresión, y algunos de sus participantes han desarrollado vínculos colaborativos transatlánticos en torno al blues y la música en vivo...
This doctoral thesis analyzes blues music as an artistic, communicative and sociocultural phenomenon through a comparative study of the blues scenes in Austin, Texas and Madrid (Spain), two reference capitals with a different relationship regarding the genre’s original tradition. Known and promoted as the “live music capital of the world”, Austin is historically, geopolitically and socioculturally immersed in the blues tradition, while Madrid, historically distant, has been incorporated into it for decades through a complex, collective and daily musical practice. Despite their unequal recognition (both in their respective states and in global blues culture), the two scenes occupy an analogous place in the underground public sphere and are very similar in structure and organization. They share social and musical practices, texts, discourses, stories, imaginaries and forms of expression, and some of their participants have developed transatlantic collaborative bonds around blues and live music...
