Burns announced the miniseries in January 2014, with a projected airdate in 2018. Burns cited his ongoing work on other documentary projects as having affected progress on the serial.[7] [8] Writer Dayton Duncan explained that the goal of the series was to demonstrate that country music "isn't and never was just one type of music. It was always this amalgam of American music and it sprang from a lot of very dissimilar roots and then, every bit information technology grew, information technology sprouted many different branches, just they're all continued." Burns filmed a full of 175 hours of interviews with 101 artists and other personalities for the series; some were recorded as early on as 2012, and some of the interviewees (such equally Little Jimmy Dickens, Roy Clark, Ralph Stanley, and Merle Haggard) died over the course of product.[9]

A five-CD soundtrack album of selected highlights of songs featured in the show, Country Music: A Moving picture By Ken Burns, was released. The five-CD box-ready was released on August 30, 2019 before the show aired, followed by two-CD, two-LP and digital versions released on September thirteen.[12] It reached No. i on Billboard's Soundtrack Album Sales chart.[13] It has sold 39,100 copies in the The states as of March 2020.[fourteen]

Reception [edit]

State Music has received generally positive reviews from telly critics.[31] Review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes gave the series an 84% fresh rating, based on 22 reviews. The aggregator consensus states the series "an expansive—if not always deep—history of the genre as seen through Ken Burns' adept middle, Country Music works equally both a crash course for new listeners and a refresher for old-timers."[32]

David Cantwell of The New Yorker wrote, "What the documentary gets correct overwhelms the caveats. Burns' chief takeaway from his immersion in the genre is spot on: country music is non, and has never been, static."[33] David Fear of Rolling Stone wrote, "Most of all, this epic, essential survey (which premieres on September 15th) is both a history lesson of an American art form and 20th century U.S.A. itself. Like Burns' 2001 deep dive Jazz, it puts the music's cultural and geographic roots front and middle."[34] Volition Hermes of Rolling Rock wrote, "The most ambitious, culturally resonant music documentary e'er fabricated."[35]

Jon Caramanica of The New York Times wrote, "State Music makes it obviously that the story of the genre is merely a pocket version of the story of the American musical experiment writ big: Anybody trying on poses and costumes, borrowing wildly at every turn, pointing fingers at others trying similar things, and, equally soon every bit things become complacent, agitating for something new."[36] Ken Tucker of NPR wrote, "In Country Music, Burns goes wide, non deep; it'due south rare for any musical excerpt to last more than twenty seconds, making it impossible for a singer to make an impression on a viewer unfamiliar with his or her work. This time around, Burns has traveled down Hank Williams' 'Lost Highway' with a busted GPS."[37] Tim Goodman of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "Country Music is a wide subject that Burns painstakingly brushes through. Simply at that place'due south not enough paint for that motion-picture show. Yous're going to meet the canvas and the blotches. If y'all know that going in, information technology helps."[38]

John Anderson of The Wall Street Journal wrote, "Ken Burns' eight-function, 16-hour serial paints tells an expansive, inclusive story of the narrative-driven music."[39] Caroline Framke of Variety wrote, "The new docuseries is reverent and exhaustive in its attempt to summarize almost a century of American music."[40] Hank Stuever of The Washington Post wrote, "Burns delivers an enlightening, educational and often emotionally stirring business relationship of country's essential evolution (all the same in progress), from traditional immigrant and church building songs heard in the misty mountain hollers to a powerful, Nashville-centric manufacture that grew to favor predictable hits over authentic origins. I cried three times while making my style through information technology, moved by the music only also by the mutual thread of suffering that travels through those who create it."[41]
