  • The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a New Look at Musical Instrument Classification
    The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a new look at musical instrument classification by Roderic C. Knight, Professor of Ethnomusicology Oberlin College Conservatory of Music, © 2015, Rev. 2017 Introduction The year 2015 marks the beginning of the second century for Hornbostel-Sachs, the venerable classification system for musical instruments, created by Erich M. von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs as Systematik der Musikinstrumente in 1914. In addition to pursuing their own interest in the subject, the authors were answering a need for museum scientists and musicologists to accurately identify musical instruments that were being brought to museums from around the globe. As a guiding principle for their classification, they focused on the mechanism by which an instrument sets the air in motion. The idea was not new. The Indian sage Bharata, working nearly 2000 years earlier, in compiling the knowledge of his era on dance, drama and music in the treatise Natyashastra, (ca. 200 C.E.) grouped musical instruments into four great classes, or vadya, based on this very idea: sushira, instruments you blow into; tata, instruments with strings to set the air in motion; avanaddha, instruments with membranes (i.e. drums), and ghana, instruments, usually of metal, that you strike. (This itemization and Bharata’s further discussion of the instruments is in Chapter 28 of the Natyashastra, first translated into English in 1961 by Manomohan Ghosh (Calcutta: The Asiatic Society, v.2). The immediate predecessor of the Systematik was a catalog for a newly-acquired collection at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels. The collection included a large number of instruments from India, and the curator, Victor-Charles Mahillon, familiar with the Indian four-part system, decided to apply it in preparing his catalog, published in 1880 (this is best documented by Nazir Jairazbhoy in Selected Reports in Ethnomusicology – see 1990 in the timeline below).

  • Wagner Oct 04.Indd
    Wagner Society in NSW Inc. Newsletter No. 98, November 2004 IN NEW SOUTH WALES INC. President’s Report Dear Members Neidhardt Ring This is our final Newsletter for 2004, and in less than 4 weeks the first cycle of the Neidhardt Ring in Adelaide will begin. This is an historic and monumental undertaking for the State Opera of South Australia, and we in the Eastern States, who cannot hope to dine on such exalted operatic fare in our own cities, will once again pilgrimage to Adelaide and its Festival Hall. In his review of Ring productions at our July meeting, Dr Antony Ernst mentioned that many opera companies are destroyed by the demands of staging the Ring, as moths to a flame, and we must all hope that this is emphatically not the case for the State Opera of South Australia. Some stagings of the Ring disappear forever after their first performances, and again we must all hope that this can be revived in Adelaide, or perhaps staged in other cities here and overseas. This Ring is being characterised by some commentators as the first truly Australian Ring, but I prefer to follow the Bayreuth tradition by naming this Ring after its producer, Elke Neidhardt. “Nach Adelaide!” Society Events PLEASE NOTE: In response to many requests over the last few years, the Management Committee has decided that all functions for 2005 will begin at 2:00PM. On Sunday 19 September, Dr Jim Leigh spoke about different recordings of the Ring and introduced the film made in November 1964 of the recording of the Solti Gotterdammerung in the Sofiensaal, Vienna.

Página 1 de 10 Revista Transcultural de Música Transcultural Music Review #11 (2007) ISSN:1697-0101 People and sounds”: Filming African music between visual anthropology and television documentary Leonardo D'Amico Università di Ferrara Università di Siena Abstract Watching music, and not only listening to or writing about it, is a priority to deepen in the knowledge of traditional music both in Europe and elsewhere. Since visual anthropology was born, there have been different ways to convey this idea. Through a review of the documentary films produced from the fifties until the present time, the paper shows the historical changes on the film industry priorities with regard to world music portrayals. The dialectal tension between fictional and ethnographic approaches has been a constant. This paper supports the premise that auteur films can reach ethnomusicological level, although not being scientific, and have an added poetical value of great help in this field.

  • Decca Discography
    DECCA DISCOGRAPHY >>V VIENNA, Austria, Germany, Hungary, etc. The Vienna Philharmonic was the jewel in Decca’s crown, particularly from 1956 when the engineers adopted the Sofiensaal as their favoured studio. The contract with the orchestra was secured partly by cultivating various chamber ensembles drawn from its membership. Vienna was favoured for symphonic cycles, particularly in the mid-1960s, and for German opera and operetta, including Strausses of all varieties and Solti’s “Ring” (1958-65), as well as Mackerras’s Janá ček (1976-82). Karajan recorded intermittently for Decca with the VPO from 1959-78. But apart from the New Year concerts, resumed in 2008, recording with the VPO ceased in 1998. Outside the capital there were various sessions in Salzburg from 1984-99. Germany was largely left to Decca’s partner Telefunken, though it was so overshadowed by Deutsche Grammophon and EMI Electrola that few of its products were marketed in the UK, with even those soon relegated to a cheap label. It later signed Harnoncourt and eventually became part of the competition, joining Warner Classics in 1990. Decca did venture to Bayreuth in 1951, ’53 and ’55 but wrecking tactics by Walter Legge blocked the release of several recordings for half a century. The Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra’s sessions moved from Geneva to its home town in 1963 and continued there until 1985. The exiled Philharmonia Hungarica recorded in West Germany from 1969-75. There were a few engagements with the Bavarian Radio in Munich from 1977- 82, but the first substantial contract with a German symphony orchestra did not come until 1982.

  • Parsifal De Richard Wagner La Bayreuth
    DRUMUL CĂTRE SPECTACOLUL IDEAL: PARSIFAL DE RICHARD WAGNER LA BAYREUTH LUCIAN SINIGAGLIA APOGEUL TEATRULUI ILUZIONIST Într-o lume prozaică, Wagner a dăruit lumii artistice şi, în egală măsură, şi-a dăruit lui însuşi teatrul iluziilor. Teatrul Festivalelor din Bayreuth a fost creat după ideile lui Wagner. Spre deosebire de ilustrul său susţinător, Ludwig al II-lea, care se zăvorâse într-un tărâm al himerelor, Wagner s-a dovedit a fi un om cu un simţ desăvârşit al realităţii. În 1876, din balconul templului artistic de pe Colina Verde, trompetele au intonat pentru prima oară un motiv muzical din Aurul Rinului, invitând publicul să asiste la prima execuţie integrală a Tetralogiei Inelul Nibelungului. Fig. 1 – Teatrul Festivalelor din Bayreuth. În lucrarea Das Kunstwerk der Zukunft (Opera de artă a viitorului, publicată în 1850), compozitorul a anticipat, prin proiecţia teoretică a construcţiei teatrale a viitorului, trăsăturile Teatrului Festivalelor de la Bayreuth. Unul dintre marile idealuri wagneriene, acela de a construi o sală cu cele mai bune caracteristici optice şi acustice, în care totul trebuie să slujească numai înţelegerii a ceea ce se întâmplă pe scenă, fusese îndeplinit. Menirea a fost aceea de „a-l determina pe spectator să se afunde în dramă, în timp ce actorii sunt absorbiţi de rolurile lor. În acest mod se vor prăbuşi frontierele teatrului, fapt care va determina revelarea spre public a ceea ce trăieşte şi respiră numai în opera de artă”1. 1 Richard Wagner, L'Oeuvre d'art de l'avenir, Paris, 1982, p. 88-91.

The Wagner Societies are also active and significant in very diverse ways. Similarly, the local relationships of Societies with both larger and smaller cultural organisations are generally productive and work well for both parties. At some special events in the year, such as the International Richard Wagner Congress, the Bayreuth Festival, or at anniversaries, vocal competitions or symposia held both by member societies and the RWVI, there are also interregional meetings and networking events taking place between local societies and individual members. Often, however, one finds oneself pressed for time at such events, and of course one would understandably not miss the first act of the "Valkyrie" or "Götterdämmerung". You end up saying “Ciao, we'll see each other later," after the obligatory courtesies are exchanged and that tends to happen too often in our opinion.
