¿Granados No Es Un Gran Maestro? Análisis Del Discurso Historiográfico Sobre El Compositor Y El Canon Nacionalista Español
¿Granados no es un gran maestro? Análisis del discurso historiográfico sobre el compositor y el canon nacionalista español MIRIAM PERANDONES Universidad de Oviedo Resumen Enrique Granados (1867-1916) es uno de los tres compositores que conforman el canon del Nacionalismo español junto a Manuel de Falla (1876- 1946) e Isaac Albéniz (1860-1909) y, sin embargo, este músico suele quedar a la sombra de sus compatriotas en los discursos históricos. Además, Granados también está fuera del “trío fundacional” del Nacionalismo formado por Felip Pedrell (1841-1922) —considerado el maestro de los tres compositores nacionalistas, y, en consecuencia, el “padre” del nacionalismo español—Albéniz y Falla. En consecuencia, uno de los objetivos de este trabajo es discernir por qué Granados aparece en un lugar secundario en la historiografía española, y cómo y en base a qué premisas se conformó este canon musical. Palabras clave: Enrique Granados, canon, Nacionalismo, historiografia musical. Abstract Enrique Granados (1867-1916) is one of the three composers Who comprise the canon of Spanish nationalism, along With Manuel de Falla (1876-1946) and Isaac Albéniz (1860-1909). HoWeVer, in the realm of historical discourse, Granados has remained in the shadoW of his compatriots. MoreoVer, Granados lies outside the “foundational trio” of nationalism, formed by Felip Pedrell (1841-1922)— considered the teacher of the three nationalist composer and, as a consequence, the “father” of Spanish nationalism—Albéniz y Falla. Therefore, one of the objectiVes of this study is to discern why Granados occupies a secondary position in Spanish historiography, and most importantly, for What reasons the musical canon eVolVed as it did. -

Sounding Nostalgia In Post-World War I Paris Abstract In the years that immediately followed the Armistice of November 11, 1918, Paris was at a turning point in its history: the aftermath of the Great War overlapped with the early stages of what is commonly perceived as a decade of rejuvenation. This transitional period was marked by tension between the preservation (and reconstruction) of a certain prewar heritage and the negation of that heritage through a series of social and cultural innovations. In this dissertation, I examine the intricate role that nostalgia played across various conflicting experiences of sound and music in the cultural institutions and popular media of the city of Paris during that transition to peace, around 1919-1920. I show how artists understood nostalgia as an affective concept and how they employed it as a creative resource that served multiple personal, social, cultural, and national functions. Rather than using the term “nostalgia” as a mere diagnosis of temporal longing, I revert to the capricious definitions of the early twentieth century in order to propose a notion of nostalgia as a set of interconnected forms of longing. -

Villancico (Sp., Diminutive of Villano: ‘Peasant’)
Villancico (Sp., diminutive of villano: ‘peasant’). A term first applied in the late 15th century to a Spanish vernacular musical and poetic form consisting of several stanzas (coplas) framed by a refrain (estribillo) at the beginning and end, giving an overall ABA structure. The number of stanzas varied, as did the number of times the estribillo was repeated between stanzas in performance. Originally derived from a medieval dance lyric of the virelai or ballata type and associated with rustic or popular themes, the villancico was extensively cultivated in secular polyphonic music of the late 15th century and the 16th. In the second half of the 16th century devotional and religious themes gained in importance and the form became used increasingly for sacred compositions in the vernacular which were introduced into the liturgy on feast days. In the 17th century it became more important than the Latin motet, and although its artistic quality rapidly declined in the 18th and 19th centuries it remained popular in both Spain and Latin America. Since then ‘villancico’ has come to mean simply ‘Christmas carol’. 1. Origins to 1600. 2. After 1600. 3. Latin America. BIBLIOGRAPHY ISABEL POPE (1), PAUL R. LAIRD (2–3) Villancico 1. Origins to 1600. The term ‘villancico’ was first applied by Renaissance writers to a refrain taken from or modelled on a rustic or popular song, and then to a number of ‘closed’ poetic and musical forms based on such a refrain. The earliest evidence of the use of the term in connection with the poetic form is in the Chansonnier Espagnol d’Herberay des Essarts (c c 1463; ed. -

Les Six and Their Music an Incidental Partnership
Berklee College of Music Les Six and Their Music An Incidental Partnership Luís F. Gomes Zanforlin History of Music in the European Tradition MHIS-P203-006 Dennis Leclaire Mar/09/2017 1 Les Six is an group of six French composers who performed and published under the same name. In post WWI France the six composers whom shared an appreciation for the music of Satie and the ideas of Cocteau gathered weekly at a local pub where they entertained themselves and enjoyed the company of many influentials and artists of the avant-guard Paris. After a joined performance at the Lyre Pallette on April fifth in 1919 and a news paper publication by Henri Collet comparing the six composers to the Russian Five, they became known as “Les Six”. The composers have distinct musical style partook in creating a new French music style free from the influence of German music. Although their partnership was informally forged by the influence of Cocteau the composers took advantage of it publishing piano books and performing concerts featuring the six composers. Georges Auric (1899-1983) was one of the founders of the group together with Durey and Honegger. The aesthetic of his music is contemporary to Pulenc and often resources to repetition and motion inducing rhythms, similar to 1920’s the futurism style. Auric composed a large number of film scores for Avant Guard films. Works: “Prélude” (1919, piano piece); “Le 14 Juillet” (1921, overture from Maniés de la Tour Eiffel); “Les Matelots” (1924, dance music for orchestra); “Cinq Bagatelles” (1925, four hands piano piece); “La Belle et Avenant” (1946, film score for La Belle et La Bête); “Where is your heart” (1952, film score for Moulin Rouge). -
Evolution and Structure in Flamenco Harmony
Evolution and Structure in Flamenco Harmony By Peter Manuel The unprecedented vogue and revitalization of flamenco since the early 1960s have generated a considerable amount of scholarly literature on the subject, written primarily by Spaniards. These studies, while contributing greatly to our understanding of flamenco in its historical and social context, have tended to avoid less overtly humanistic subjects, including any analyt ical discussion of the structural aspects of flamenco as music per se. Hence, such a topic as the structure of flamenco harmony has received only passing mention in flamenco studies or oblique reference in guitar manuals. While flamenco musicians themselves are generally uninterested in theo rizing about their music, flamenco harmony is one of the most crucial expres sive aspects of the genre and certainly merits some study in this regard. On a broader level, an inquiry into flamenco harmony may reveal some of the- processes by which musical acculturation and instrumental idiosyncracies can generate a syncretic and highly distinctive harmonic system. This article addresses certain aspects of the development and present form of flamenco harmony. In brief, it advances two hypotheses: first, that flamen co harmony is a syncretic product of Arab modal practice and European harmony, and second, that many of the most distinctive features of the har monic system, and in particular the use of altered chords, have arisen in direct connection with idiosyncratic characteristics of the guitar. The first of these theses, although difficult to document, is hardly original, and indeed, is widely taken for granted among flamenco scholars. Before proceeding direct ly to these arguments, some introduction to flamenco harmony and style may be appropriate here.
