The Sounds of Spectators at Football

Autor Professor or Dr. Nicolai Jørgensgaard Graakjær
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iul 2024
The sounds of spectators at football (soccer) are often highlighted - by spectators, tourists, commentators, journalists, scholars, media producers, etc. - as crucial for the experience of football. These sounds are often said to contribute significantly to the production (at the stadium) and conveyance (in televised broadcast) of 'atmosphere.' This book addresses why and how spectator sounds contribute to the experience of watching in these environments and what characterizes spectator sounds in terms of their structure, distribution and significance. Based on an examination of empirical materials - including the sounds of football matches from the English Premier League as they emerge both at the stadium and in the televised broadcast - this book systematically dissects the sounds of football watching.

Recenzii

Graakjaer has given us a highly original and engaging contribution to sound studies. His thorough-going comparison between the live soundscapes of football matches and their televised versions is revealing and thought-provoking.
Drawing upon his experiences as a musicologist and semiotician, Nicolai Graakjaer has created a detailed and exhaustive study of sound and music in football environments, both live and televised. In the spirit of sound studies by Pierre Schaeffer, Pauline Oliveros, and others, the work is a detailed analysis of the dynamics of sound and music in large-scale sporting events and provides keen insights into how fandom accesses musical references, how music and sound are ritualized and how both function to create emotional bonds that unifies groups of fans. A truly remarkable work in its detail and scope, and has implications on the significance of sound and music in any group dynamic.
In an age when most people watch that most popular sport in the world - football on television screens, this important, innovative and forensic text compares the sound of football in the stadium to that experienced on the screen thereby filling a major gap in the field. A first!
