  • Manuel Verdeguer Beltrán (1908-1988) Trayectoria Musical Y Aportaciones a La Escuela Moderna Del Contrabajo
    Doctorado en Arte: Producción e Investigación Manuel Verdeguer Beltrán (1908-1988) Trayectoria musical y aportaciones a la escuela moderna del contrabajo TESIS DOCTORAL Autor: Francisco Ruiz Zanón Directores: Antonio Ripollés Mansilla y Vicente Llimerá Dús Tutor: Vicente Barón Linares Valencia, febrero 2020 Agradecimientos Agradezco la inestimable ayuda de Francisco Verdeguer, sobrino del maestro Verdeguer residente actualmente en Valencia, que nos ha ofrecido la oportunidad de investigar sobre la vida de este gran artista, sin duda una de las grandes figuras del patrimonio musical valenciano. Agradecimiento a Manuel Verdeguer, hijo de Manuel Verdeguer Beltrán que reside en Sarasota (Estado de Florida). Agradezco los sabios consejos y el apoyo de mis directores de tesis el Dr. Antonio Ripollés Mansilla y el Dr. Vicente Llimerá Dús. Agradecimiento y dedicatoria de esta tesis a mis profesores de contrabajo Emilio Maravella, Gérard Massat, Jean Ané y Thierry Barbé. Mi agradecimiento a la Universitat Politècnica de València por su apoyo para que esta Tesis Doctoral viera la luz. En especial a la Dra. Teresa Cháfer, Coordinadora del Programa de Doctorado en Arte: Producción e Investigación, por su inestimable ayuda y a mi Tutor el Dr. Vicente Barón Linares por su gestión y buen hacer en los trámites para su defensa. 2 Resumen Manuel Verdeguer Beltrán es el contrabajista español más relevante del siglo XX, con un gran reconocimiento en el continente americano. Nacido en 1908 en Valencia, comenzó tocando el violoncello y posteriormente se consagró como solista y pedagogo del contrabajo, elogiado, entre otros por los maestros Lamote de Grignon y Joaquín Turina. El estudio de la época en la que desarrolló su carrera artística en España nos ha permitido descubrir la crisis económica causada a los intérpretes por la desaparición del cine mudo, así como en el conocimiento del reglamento que regía las condiciones laborales de los músicos.

  • 1999 Highlights
    from the 1999 Annual Report HIGHLIGHTS OF THE YEAR The research and education programs at the Laboratory remain strong and vibrant. The recruitment of the first students in the Watson School of Biological Sciences and the com- pletion of their intensive core courses highlighted progress this year. The DNA Learning Center introduced new, Web-based educational tools, and the meetings and courses pro- grams at the main campus and the Banbury Center continued to provide a valuable service to the scientific community. Significantly, the Laboratory Press saw the continued develop- ment of its exciting textbook-publishing program as part of the Laboratory’s goal to promote innovative teaching programs for graduate students and senior undergraduate students. These educational programs occur in the surrounding of a strong research environment, with research and education braided together in a common enterprise. Research Neuroscience Roberto Malinow and Karel Svoboda have continued to push the limits of brain imaging by observing the changes that occur in individual neurons as they respond to electrical stimuli. Combining their expertise in electrophysi- ology and high-resolution imaging of the brain, they study the cellular events that underlie “synaptic plasticity”—the ability of brain neurons to reorganize their connections in response to experience, such as during learning and consolidation of memories. In particular, Roberto and Karel are exploring the mechanisms involved in long-term potentiation (LTP), the strengthening of Roberto Malinow synaptic connections between nerve cells in response to trained stimuli. Their studies focus on a region of the brain involved in learning and memory called the hip- pocampus, a region required for a form of memory called declarative memory, or the con- scious memory of learned events.
