Contributions by Mat Callahan, Suzanne G. Cusick, James E. Dillard, Steven Garabedian, Franz Andres Morrissey, Jim Rogers, Elissa Stroman, Britta Sweers, and Dick Weissman What exactly is American music? Is blackface minstrelsy American music? Is Hawaiian music? Is "The Star-Spangled Banner," written by an Englishman, American music? And what exactly is "Rockin’ in the Free World"? Why does the Voice of America use American music to promote America? These and many other questions are discussed in Bombs Bursting in Air: Music and the State.
The relationship between music and the state has been the topic of controversy for at least 2,500 years. The oft-quoted passage from Plato's Republic, "the musical modes are never changed without changes in the most basic of the City's laws," not only underscores the importance of music in general but warns of music's ability to affect how society is governed.
The state must therefore employ music to serve its ends while at the same time guarding against the lawlessness and subversion music is capable of introducing. Bombs Bursting in Air gathers contributions from historians and musicologists to explore the role of music in the history of the United States.
The essayists exhume music that has been forgotten or deliberately buried while drawing comparison with what has been promoted as "American music" by the academy, the music industry, and journalism, as well as by the US State Department.
