Between 1873 and 1935, reformers in Chicago used the power of music to unify the diverse peoples of the metropolis. These musical progressives emphasized the capacity of music to transcend differences among various groups. Sounds of Reform looks at the history of efforts to propagate this vision and the resulting encounters between activists and ethnic, immigrant, and working-class residents. Musical progressives sponsored free concerts and music lessons at neighborhood parks and settlement houses, organized music festivals and neighborhood dances, and used the radio waves as part of an unprecedented effort to advance civic engagement. European classical music, ragtime, jazz, and popular American song all figured into the musical progressives' mission. For residents with ideas about music as a tool of self-determination, musical progressivism could be problematic as well as empowering. The resulting struggles and negotiations between reformers and residents transformed the public culture of Chicago. Through his innovative examination of the role of music in the history of progressivism, Derek Vaillant offers a new perspective on the cultural politics of music and American society.

Throughout the long nineteenth-century the sounds of liberty resonated across the Anglophone world. Focusing on radicals and reformers committed to the struggle for a better future, this book explores the role of music in the transmission of political culture over time and distance. Following in the footsteps of relentlessly travelling activists women and men - it brings to light the importance of music making in the lived experience of politics. It shows how music encouraged, unified, divided, consoled, reminded, inspired and, at times, oppressed. The book examines iconic songs; the sound of music as radicals and reformers were marching, electioneering, celebrating, commemorating as well as striking, rioting and rebelling; and it listens within the walls of a range of associations where it was a part of a way of life, inspiring, nurturing, though at times restrictive. It provides an opportunity to hear history as it happened.

Excerpt from Sounds and Signs: A Criticism of the Alphabet With Suggestions for Reform I. Reforms OF TY pe. - Reverence is a quality too rare and precious to be squandered where it is not deserved. While the ancient constitution of this country is falling in ruins about our ears, to give place to a new order, the outcome of which is fore seen by none and distrusted by many, it seems an anomaly and a pity that anything so obviously defective and so easy to reform as the means by which we translate our spoken words into the Silent language of books, should pass as something sacred, untouched and until recently almost uncriticized. That its defects are obvious and that simple but immrtant remedies are easy, is what I shall try to show to those who may not have noticed it themselves.

Sounds... is an effort to define the current atmosphere in recent efforts to reform American education. Every day in America students begin their day with a ride on a noisy little yellow school bus. Doors open and doors close. Bells ring. Some students respond while others fall between the cracks. Elementary school students can be heard asking, "May I go to the restroom?" and go out to play. Middle school students ask, "Where do babies come from?" While high school students go to band, choir, algebra and chemistry and ask questions like, "Should I have sex?" At the end of the day the same American students get back on the little yellow school bus to return home.
