Piano Application For Magnificat18th Magnificat Institute Nikolaus de la Flüe Piano Competition March 3 & 5, 2017 Regulations Application Form Magnificat Institute Jerusalem CUSTODIA TERRÆ SANCTÆ Established by Mrs. Anita Crasnich Tavasani in memory of her son Carlo, the “Carlo Tavasani” Piano Competition is now known as the “Nikolaus de la Flüe” Piano Competition. Main Sponsor: Associazione Amici del Magnificat Compagnia di Representation of Austrian San Giorgio the Republic of Poland Hospice to the Palestinian Authority A creation of the Franciscan Fr. Armando Pierucci, the Magnificat Institute of Music was officially established in 1995 by the Chapter of the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land. The main goal of the Institute is to train and prepare musicians who will sing and play music in the Holy Places, and to offer musical education of high quality to all communities living in the Holy Land. The Magnificat Institute offers courses in piano, pipe organ, violin, viola, cello, flute, guitar, voice training, percussions, oboe, bassoon and trumpet. There are a number of disciplines connected to the program: solfege, recorder, harmony, music history, orchestra and choir practice in one of the three choirs of the Institute. The Magnificat Institute has an international team of teachers; all of them have a strong academic background and a solid teaching experience. There are approximately 200 students, ranging from the propaedeutic level to the 10 year courses of musical studies. In 2014, the Magnificat Institute signed a collaboration agreement with the “A. Pedrollo” Musical Conservatory of Vicenza (Italy). As a result, the music school of the Custody offers B.A. Degrees in Music that are recognized all over the European Union. The Institute is making great efforts to enrich the local musical culture. With this goal, the Magnificat Institute has published: The Hymnal (accompaniments for organ to 580 Arabic sacred songs), Zahr El-Rayhan (15 songs for voice and piano), Mathaq Al-Sharq and Let us Play Together (pieces for piano duets), Al ‘Alam As Saghir (a piano method utilizing Arabic songs, or songs with an Arabic text; the method is divided into 5 grades), Sing and Play (children songs and games), the History of Music in the Arabic Language (3 volumes) and 3 CDs of Arabic secular and sacred songs.

Media Les Sacqueboutiers ensemble de cuivres anciens de Toulouse Artistic Direction : Jean-Pierre Canihac et Daniel Lassalle Les Sacqueboutiers, an ensemble based in Toulouse, playing on early brass instruments have been in existence for nearly four decades during which time they have built up a reputation as one of the finest early music ensembles on the international scene. Regarded by specialists and the public alike as a reference in the interpretation of seventeenth-century instrumental music, particularly that of Italy and Germany, the ensemble has reaped the highest awards for its recordings. When they decided to form Les Sacqueboutiers in 1976, Jean-Pierre Canihac and Jean-Pierre Mathieu were among the first to embark on the adventurous rediscovery of early instruments. The quality of their work soon attracted attention, and they took part in the groundbreaking recording of Monteverdi's Vespro della Beata Vergine, conducted by Michel Corboz. Since then, they have per-formed music ranging from the Renaissance to Mozart, with many prestigious ensembles including Les Arts Florissants (William Christie), La Chapelle Royale (Philippe Herreweghe), A Sei Voci (Bernard Fabre-Garrus), Elyma (Gabriel Garrido), La Grande Ecurie et la Chambre du Roy (Jean-Claude Malgoire), the Clément Janequin Ensemble (Dominique Visse)..

  • The Conference
    Welcome to the Conference I am delighted to welcome you to the 4th international Reflective Conservatoire Conference: Creativity and Changing Cultures, hosted by the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in partnership with the European Association of Conservatoires (AEC), Arts and Humanities in Higher Education, ASIMUT software, Cause4, the Centre of Excellence in Music Performance Education (CEMPE), the Incorporated Society of Musicians (ISM), the Institute of Musical Research (IMR), the Society for Education, Music & Psychology Research (SEMPRE), The Culture Capital Exchange (TCCE) and Conservatoires UK (CUK). The programme is packed with what promises to be inspiring and thought-provoking sessions which we hope will lead and define a paradigm-shift in conservatoire cultures. Our themes are: Creativity, Playfulness and Improvisation; Interdisciplinary Connections; The World in 2020 and Beyond; and Viewpoints on the Developing Artist. We hope to stimulate debate on how reflective conservatoires can bring about change and innovation to established creative practice as well as preparing students for a professional world with open-ended possibilities. The keynote presentations will focus on reflection on creative processes in both music education and in the making of artistic work, with Ricardo Castro talking on Brazil’s NEOJIBA youth music training programme and Liz Lerman on the Critical Response Process, a feedback system for developing work in progress. The opening keynote, ‘The artist as maker - current issues and future prospects’ will draw on perspectives from across the performing arts, open up fundamental questions about artistic freedom and creativity, and provoke debate. I hope that you find much to discuss, debate and reflect upon over the next few days and that you take advantage of the many social opportunities to forge new professional ties and friendships with fellow conference participants from the global conservatoire community.

  • Terza Giornata Italiana Della Ricerca Artistica Musicale
    Terza Giornata Italiana della Ricerca Artistica Musicale ONNIVERSO indagini nei linguaggi e nelle forme del suono Venerdì 6 febbraio Bologna – Conservatorio “G. B. Martini” PRESENTATION The “Third Italian Day of Artistic Research in Music”, organized by RAMI-associazione per la Ricerca Artistica Musicale in Italia in collaboration with the Conservatoire "G. B. Martini "in Bologna, has the goal of increasing the debate on research in the field of musical activities coherently with the latest European guidelines and according to the purposes of the Association. RAMI contributes to the issue in a targeted way with its actions, including the earlier organization of the first two conferences, held at the Florence Conservatoire in 2013 and at the Academy Teatro alla Scala in Milan in 2014. The appointment of the 6th February 2015, entitled “ONNIVERSO, Investigations in the languages and forms of sound”, focuses on musical research understood in its broadest concept of multidisciplinary actitude towards multifaceted and variously oriented meaning. In particular, it aims to stimulate Italians musicians and music scholars to turn their interest and their reflection towards the knowledge of artistic research in music. The day is divided into two parts: In the morning, a round table discussion -from the personal perspectives of the participants- aimed to highlight the theme of the development of artistic music research, the importance of synergy between the world of artistic production and that of training, according to an open mental attitude and an interdisciplinary and inter-sectorial approach. The confrontation, involving guests coming from a variety of experiences, will focus on the relationship between 'action research' and 'artistic production', between 'doing research' and 'teach (to do) research', between the world of production and that of artistic education.

  • Abstracts and Bios
    Abstracts KEYNOTES 19th March 2019 – 15.00-16.000 David J. Bodenhamer (The Polis Center - Indiana University Purdue University, Indianapolis) Spatial Humanities and the Embodied World: Connecting Matter and Meaning The use of spatial theories and technologies within the humanities—the spatial humanities—has led to creative scholarship that has reinvigorated our understanding of space and place in history, literature, archaeology, and allied disciplines. This new field promises a unique postmodern scholarship that accommodates the contingent, fluid, and ambiguous nature of human memories, beliefs, and actions. The goal is not to sacrifice the rational, logical, and empirical approach to knowledge that has been the hallmark of scholarship since the Enlightenment, but rather to complement it with different ways of discovery. Here, how we experience the sensory world enriches our effort to understand it logically. Spatial humanities, in sum, seeks to reconcile the tension between matter and meaning. This presentation explores what we have learned from our application of geospatial technologies to the problems of interest to humanists, including imagined geographies and soundscapes. It also suggests an agenda for the future of this work, which increasingly will witness the convergence of technologies within new formats, such as virtual reality. One result is deep mapping, an innovative form of mapping with an emphasis on experiential knowledge that will open scholarship to non-expert audiences. What does this development mean for the spatial humanities as we continue to seek ways to connect matter and meaning on the subjects that interest us? 21st March 2019 – 16.30-17.30 Kevin J. Donnelly (University of Southampton) Emotional Landscapes and Dimensional Music Sergei Eisenstein’s notion of “nonindifferent nature” (1987: 389) posits an equivalence between landscape shots and music, seeing as in film the former are able to move beyond simple communication and narrative function to elicit a sense of atmosphere and emotion.
