    A Comparative Analysis of Acoustic Energy Models for Churches

    A comparative analysis of acoustic energy models for churches ͒ Umberto Berardi,a Ettore Cirillo, and Francesco Martellotta Dipartimento di Architettura e Urbanistica, Politecnico di Bari, via Orabona 4, I70125 Bari, Italy ͑Received 3 February 2009; revised 17 July 2009; accepted 24 July 2009͒ Different models to improve prediction of energy-based acoustic parameters in churches have been proposed by different researchers ͓E. Cirillo and F. Martellotta, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 118, 232–248 ͑2005͒; T. Zamarreño et al., J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 121, 234–250 ͑2006͔͒. They all suggested variations to the “revised” theory proposed by Barron and Lee ͓J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 84, 618–628 ͑1988͔͒, starting from experimental observations. The present paper compares these models and attempts to generalize their use taking advantage of the measurements carried out in 24 Italian churches differing in style, typology, and location. The whole sample of churches was divided into two groups. The first was used to fine-tune existing models, with particular reference to the “␮ model,” which was originally tested only on Mudejar-Gothic churches. Correlations between model parameters and major typological and architectural factors were found, leading to a classification that greatly simplifies parameter choice. Finally, the reliability of each model was verified on the rest of the sample, showing that acoustic parameters can be predicted with reasonable accuracy provided that one of the specifically modified theories is used. The results show that the model requiring more input parameters performs slightly better than the other which, conversely, is simpler to apply. © 2009 Acoustical Society of America. ͓DOI: 10.1121/1.3205398͔ PACS number͑s͒: 43.55.Br, 43.55.Gx ͓NX͔ Pages: 1838–1849 I.

    Thesis Submission

    Rebuilding a Culture: Studies in Italian Music after Fascism, 1943-1953 Peter Roderick PhD Music Department of Music, University of York March 2010 Abstract The devastation enacted on the Italian nation by Mussolini’s ventennio and the Second World War had cultural as well as political effects. Combined with the fading careers of the leading generazione dell’ottanta composers (Alfredo Casella, Gian Francesco Malipiero and Ildebrando Pizzetti), it led to a historical moment of perceived crisis and artistic vulnerability within Italian contemporary music. Yet by 1953, dodecaphony had swept the artistic establishment, musical theatre was beginning a renaissance, Italian composers featured prominently at the Darmstadt Ferienkurse , Milan was a pioneering frontier for electronic composition, and contemporary music journals and concerts had become major cultural loci. What happened to effect these monumental stylistic and historical transitions? In addressing this question, this thesis provides a series of studies on music and the politics of musical culture in this ten-year period. It charts Italy’s musical journey from the cultural destruction of the post-war period to its role in the early fifties within the meteoric international rise of the avant-garde artist as institutionally and governmentally-endorsed superman. Integrating stylistic and aesthetic analysis within a historicist framework, its chapters deal with topics such as the collective memory of fascism, internationalism, anti- fascist reaction, the appropriation of serialist aesthetics, the nature of Italian modernism in the ‘aftermath’, the Italian realist/formalist debates, the contradictory politics of musical ‘commitment’, and the growth of a ‘new-music’ culture. In demonstrating how the conflict of the Second World War and its diverse aftermath precipitated a pluralistic and increasingly avant-garde musical society in Italy, this study offers new insights into the transition between pre- and post-war modernist aesthetics and brings musicological focus onto an important but little-studied era.

  • The Second Edition of the MITO Settembremusica Music Festival Promises to Be Even Stronger and More Broad-Based Than the Boldly Pioneering First Edition

    The Second Edition of the MITO Settembremusica Music Festival Promises to Be Even Stronger and More Broad-Based Than the Boldly Pioneering First Edition

    The second edition of the MITO SettembreMusica music festival promises to be even stronger and more broad-based than the boldly pioneering first edition. That edition came to be thanks to streamlined decision-making and was lauded as a success. For anyone who failed to realize the festival’s extraordinary potential, MITO SettembreMusica 2007 turned out to be the unarmed prophet of the grand season marked by the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy and Expo 2015. Eschewing timidity and limitation, this called for thinking big, which inevitably led to planning beyond mere municipal confines. Thus, MITO SettembreMusica comprises in a single dream, in a single sound, the cities of Torino and Milano, and infects smaller outlying cities, such as Alessandria, Bergamo, Bollate, Bose di Magnano, Cremona, Lecco, Moncalieri, Monza, Morbegno, Novi Ligure, Pavia, Rivoli, Susa, Venaria. Indeed, the first edition of MITO SettembreMusica exceeded everyone’s expectations, also in terms of the balance and blending of the two main host cities’ capacities. Beyond the exploitation of local characteristics, combining the energy of cities leads to unpredictable outcomes. The experience of MITO SettembreMusica has given shape to projects, ideas and aims that had been circulating for years, and which had gone unfulfilled. Today we can speak freely of new and lasting bonds created between service companies, banks, symmetric cooperation among the events of 2011 and 2015, as well as other opportunities that are useful for our two communities, now enhanced by the upcoming activation of high-speed connections. But before MITO SettembreMusica became a stellar reality traveling at even higher speed, in the breath of its very first edition, attitudes and points of view were not so natural.
