A City, a Sound and the Cinema in Mutual LINKEDIN Thrall E-MAIL City, State or ZIP PRINT By JANET MASLIN More Theaters Near You » Published: August 1, 1997 SHARE Inspired by sweet, lilting music and a lovely city, Wim Wenders's ''Lisbon Story'' is a dreamy philosophical travelogue made in indulgently poetic style. The word ''story'' in the title is a misnomer, since this wispy film is more gentle meditation than outright tale. As a compendium of the filmmaker's esthetic and emotional predilections, the gently drifting ''Lisbon Story'' works better as a companion piece to Mr. Wenders's other work than as a free-standing invention. Yet perhaps because of its complete immersion in warmly inviting city scenes, the seductive Portuguese sound of a musical group called Madredeus and an explicit reverence for the magic of cinema, Mr. Wenders has called this his most entertaining film. The 1995 ''Lisbon Story,'' which finally opens today at the Anthology Film Archives, was financed by the City of Lisbon and commissioned as a work of civic boosterism, albeit one of exceptional contemplativeness and emotion. After committing himself to this setting, which he clearly knows intimately and affectionately, Mr. Wenders became enthralled by the haunting music of Madredeus and made those sounds equally integral to his film. The third element was cinema, and so ''Lisbon Story'' has the pretext of summoning a sound engineer to Lisbon to complete a friend's unfinished movie. With camera equipment ranging from video to antique invoked throughout the film, ''Lisbon Story'' tries also to make sense of a century of filmmaking tradition. Phillip Winter, the character played once again by Rudiger Vogler (who has appeared in many other Wenders films and has previously played this same role), is called to Lisbon by Friedrich Monroe (Patrick Bauchau), a filmmaker who has mysteriously vanished. ''Lisbon Story'' patiently records Winter's car trip, arrival and exploration of Friedrich's apartment, which has the kind of great, peeling paint that adds to the film's sense of romance. Soon Winter has made friends with a coterie of beautiful children (who like to play with cameras) and has begun making sense of Friedrich's film fragments. He is also stunned to hear Madredeus performing and is instantly bewitched by Teresa Salgueiro, the group's beautiful singer. Ms. Salgueiro, who fits in well with the un-self-conscious, home-movie conversational style here, has not acted before. Using his microphone as a divining rod, Winter begins roaming Lisbon in search 1 of 2 11/23/17, 9:02 AM Movie Review - - A City, a Sound and the Cinema... http://www.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=980... of sounds. And as he looks for the exact accompaniment to match Friedrich's abandoned images, the film creates the urban portrait that is much of its raison d'etre. From stark modern structures to the red-roofed, white-walled vistas of the sun-baked old city, the Lisbon that emerges here is as deeply enticing as any Chamber of Commerce might hope. Mr. Wenders easily mixes Winter's gleeful treasure hunt for sounds with the larger discovery of this alluring place. As Winter meanders closer to finding out how and why Friedrich disappeared, the film begins to muse more intently on cinema's meaning. The filmmaker Manoel de Oliveira appears briefly to deliver a dignified little monologue laced with the biggest of ideas. (''What use is the universe?'' ''We want to imitate God and that's why we have artists.'') ''Lisbon Story'' culminates in much more of the same as Friedrich returns to debate with Winter. One of them asks, in Mr. Wenders's own impassioned manner, ''Why waste your life on junk images when you can make indispensable ones with your heart on magic celluloid?'' It's a noble ambition that is cherished even when not fulfilled by ''Lisbon Story.''

  • O Processo De Internacionalização Da Música Portuguesa: Contexto Histórico, Desafios Atuais E Futuro
    O Processo de Internacionalização da Música Portuguesa: contexto histórico, desafios atuais e futuro Joaquim Paulo da Cruz Oliveira Dissertação de Mestrado Mestrado em Empreendedorismo e Internacionalização Porto – abril de 2014 INSTITUTO SUPERIOR DE CONTABILIDADE E ADMINISTRAÇÃO DO PORTO O Processo de Internacionalização da Música Portuguesa: contexto histórico, desafios atuais e futuro Joaquim Paulo da Cruz Oliveira Dissertação de Mestrado apresentada ao Instituto de Contabilidade e Administração do Porto para a obtenção do grau de Mestre em Empreendedorismo e Internacionalização, sob orientação do Professor Doutor Freitas Santos Porto – abril de 2014 INSTITUTO SUPERIOR DE CONTABILIDADE E ADMINISTRAÇÃO DO PORTO INSTITUTO POLITÉCNICO DO PORTO Resumo O presente trabalho aborda a problemática da internacionalização da música portuguesa, referindo o contexto histórico da sua evolução (internacional e nacional), os desafios atuais que se colocam às empresas e músicos decorrente da digitalização da música, traçando-se depois alguns cenários de futuro. Desde a sua origem e implementação como indústria que a música portuguesa tem apresentado dificuldades de se internacionalizar. Se tal se deve, em grande parte, ao isolamento a que o país esteve sujeito durante o regime do Estado Novo, a situação pouco se alterou com a revolução de 25 de abril de 1974. Era suposto que o surgimento do digital, aliado a novas tecnologias de divulgação e partilha e a menores custos de produção alterassem a situação. No entanto, num mundo cada vez mais globalizado, Portugal parece continuar a padecer do isolamento e da sua condição geograficamente periférica. O que verdadeiramente acontece é que, o verdadeiro problema, hoje e sempre, reside na falta de apoios e de estruturas profissionais que permitam alavancar a música portuguesa no seu processo de internacionalização e exportação como um bem consumível, gerador de emprego e de retorno económico.

  • The Portuguese Guitar: History and Transformation of an Instrument Associated with Fado
    THE PORTUGUESE GUITAR: HISTORY AND TRANSFORMATION OF AN INSTRUMENT ASSOCIATED WITH FADO NUNO JOSÉ DOS SANTOS ANAIA CRISTO A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO JANUARY 2014 © Nuno José dos Santos Anaia Cristo 2014 ABSTRACT Since the mid-nineteenth century the Portuguese guitar has been connected to the fado genre. Over the years, both the instrument and the song genre have experienced significant transformations, at times related to aesthetic changes, at other times conditioned by social, political and economic alterations. This thesis focuses on the historic organological development of the Portuguese guitar, as an instrument associated with fado, and explores how the Lisbon guitar model has been progressively replaced by the Coimbra guitar model (both in practice and iconic symbolism). I argue that this tendency is related to the current new era of Portuguese guitar practice with its origins in the post-revolutionary period lived in Portugal after the political overthrow in 1974. My study is based on the review and analysis of the most recent works on the subject, fieldwork among players and makers, iconographic and archival research, and my own experience as a player and maker of both models of the Portuguese guitar. ii DEDICATION To my parents iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many thanks to: York University for the 2012 GS-CUPE Unit 1 Graduate Financial Assistance - Dom Award.

  • Lisbon Story
    LISBON STORY The story starts with a postcard and a cryptic message: “Dear Phil. I cannot continue m.o.s.! S.O.S.! Come to Lisbon with all your stuff a.s.a.p.! Big hug, Fritz.” Who is who? And what do all those abbreviations mean? The S.O.S. of course is obvious, and a.s.a.p. only strengthens the urgency: come as soon as possible. But m.o.s.? Only someone who has worked on a film set before might know that the expression dates back to the early years of sound films and according to legend Erich von Stroheim, who wanted to continue shooting without sound, coined the term “mit out sound”. It soon becomes clear: The postcard comes from the director Friedrich Munroe (Patrick Bauchau) who asks his friend Phillip Winter (Rüdiger Vogler) to come to his aid. Friedrich single-handedly shoots a film in Lisbon and Winter is a sound engineer. He’s stuck: he wanted to shoot a film as if the whole history of film had not taken place. One man alone in the streets, with a crank handle camera, just like Buster Keaton in THE CAMERAMAN. Now he hopes that Winter’s microphone can pull his pictures “out of the darkness” and just save his entire undertaking. The film is a hommage to the city of Lisbon and a bow to the history of film for which 100th birthday it was made. The soundtrack made the group Madradeus world-famous.

  • Visões Do Fim Do Mundo Em David Bowie E António Variaçõesc
    Visões do fim do mundo em David Bowie e António Variações* Visons of the End of The World in David Bowie and António Variações LUÍS CARLOS S. BRANCO** PALAVRAS-CHAVE: António Variações, David Bowie, Glam Rock, Tom Apocalíptico, Holismo. KEYWORDS: António Variações, David Bowie, Glam Rock, Apocalyptic Tone, Holism. – Se é sonho eu durmo, e se é loucura estou louco Padre António Vieira 1. Irei analisar neste artigo a co-relação entre a obra de David Bowie e a obra de António Variações. A intertextualidade e a intermusicalidade em Variações são questões importantes para compreendermos o verdadeiro alcance da sua obra. Ele referiu amiúde Amália Rodrigues1 enquanto figura tutelar, mas recusou sempre qualquer comparação com artistas estrangeiros. Achava que se revelasse as suas preferências musicais estaria, de algum modo, a diminuir a sua própria originalidade artística e, por isso, não o fez. Referiu apenas artistas * Este artigo foi produzido no âmbito da minha dissertação de mestrado, em curso no Departamento de Línguas e Culturas da Universidade de Aveiro, em Línguas, Literaturas e Culturas – ramo de Estudos Portugueses, sobre a obra de António Variações, orientada pelo Professor Doutor Nuno Rosmaninho, que, neste contexto, supervisionou e corrigiu este artigo. ** Mestrando em Línguas, Literaturas e Culturas (ramo de Estudos Portugueses) no Departa- mento de Línguas e Culturas da Universidade de Aveiro. 1 A influência amaliana reclamada por Variações nunca foi, até agora, estudada. Assim, para lá da versão pop-rock que gravou de «Povo que Lavas no Rio», são muitas as questões por responder. Onde é que podemos encontrar verdadeiramente essa influência amaliana? De que modo é que ela é visível ou não no cancioneiro variaciano? São questões ainda sem resposta.

À minha orientadora, a estimada Professora Doutora Cristina Vieira, pelo seu entusiasmo face ao meu projecto, pela ajuda e comentários acerca da construção do plano da dissertação, pela sua disponibilidade e simpatia. Graças à sua experiência pôde guiar-me sempre com um olhar crítico até o último sopro. Aos meus antigos professores da Universidade de Coimbra, por partilhar a sua paixão da língua portuguesa e da cultura lusa. Aos ciganólogos, filólogos e linguistas, tal como Carlos Clavería, George Borrow, Max Leopold Wagner, Ivo Buzek e ainda Miguel Ropero Núñez, cujas prévias investigações me ajudaram imenso na realização do presente trabalho. De maneira geral, a todos os que me precederam no estudo do povo cigano, qualquer que seja o seu ângulo de abordagem. Às Mamoas, à Theresa e à Ana Maria, sem as quais não seria capaz de redigir este texto na língua de Camões. Não há palavras para agradecer o ensino benévolo que me deram ao longo dos últimos anos.
