  • Frescobaldi Gesualdo Solbiati
    Frescobaldi Gesualdo Solbiati FRANCESCO GESUALDI Accordion Girolamo Frescobaldi (1583 -1643) If we think of the theatre as a place in which audiences not only perceive with their eyes and ears, but also their deeper feelings, then the work presented in this recording Dal II Libro di Toccate is in many respects theatrical. The explanation lies in the fact that one of Francesco 1. Toccata I 4’42 Gesualdi’s particular gifts as a performer is his ability to produce sounds that conjure 2. Toccata II 4’44 up the action underlying the music, and indeed evoke the spaces in which the events 3. Toccata III, da sonarsi alla Levatione 8’51 take place. This is particularly noteworthy when performance is actually separated 4. Toccata IV, da sonarsi alla Levatione 6’58 from the reality of visualization. 5. Toccata VIII, di Durezze e Ligature 5’01 The synaesthetic experience underlying vision and visionary perception is arguably one of the fundamental ingredients of the “Second Practice”, or stile moderno, which Dal I Libro di Toccate aimed at engaging the feelings of the listener. This art was essential to the evocative 6. Partite sopra l'Aria della Romanesca (1–14) 21’49 power of Frescobaldi’s music. In his performance Francesco Gesualdi establishes a particular spatial and temporal Carlo Gesualdo (1566–1613) universe in which the constraints of absolute formal rigour are reconciled with 7. Canzon francese del Principe 6’40 freedom of accentuation and vital breath, so as to invest each execution with the immediacy of originality. In this ability to renew with each rendering, Gesualdi’s Alessandro Solbiati (1956) playing speaks for the way wonderment can forge the essential relationship between 8.

  • Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600
    Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 By Leon Chisholm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Massimo Mazzotti Summer 2015 Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 Copyright 2015 by Leon Chisholm Abstract Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 by Leon Chisholm Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Keyboard instruments are ubiquitous in the history of European music. Despite the centrality of keyboards to everyday music making, their influence over the ways in which musicians have conceptualized music and, consequently, the music that they have created has received little attention. This dissertation explores how keyboard playing fits into revolutionary developments in music around 1600 – a period which roughly coincided with the emergence of the keyboard as the multipurpose instrument that has served musicians ever since. During the sixteenth century, keyboard playing became an increasingly common mode of experiencing polyphonic music, challenging the longstanding status of ensemble singing as the paradigmatic vehicle for the art of counterpoint – and ultimately replacing it in the eighteenth century. The competing paradigms differed radically: whereas ensemble singing comprised a group of musicians using their bodies as instruments, keyboard playing involved a lone musician operating a machine with her hands.

  • An Italian Tune in the Synagogue: an Unexplored Contrafactum by Leon Modena∗
    Kedem G OLDEN AN ITALIAN TUNE IN THE SYNAGOGUE: AN UNEXPLORED CONTRAFACTUM BY LEON MODENA∗ ABSTRACT Leon Modena, one of the celebrated personalities of Italian Jewry in the early modern period, is known for his extensive, life-long involvement with music in its various theoretical and practical aspects. The article presents additional evidence that has gone unnoticed in previous studies of Modena’s musical endeavors: his adaption of a polyphonic, secular Italian melody, for the singing of a liturgical hymn. After identifying the melody and suggesting a possible date for the compo- sition of the Hebrew text, the article proceeds to discuss it in a broader context of the Jewish musical culture at the turn of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, in particular contemporary Jewish views to the use of “foreign” melodies in the syna- gogue. The article concludes with an attempt to situate it as part of Modena’s thought of art music. RÉSUMÉ Léon Modène, une des personnalités célèbres du judaïsme italien du début de la période moderne, est connu pour s’être impliqué de près dans le monde de la musique et ses divers aspects, aussi bien théoriques que pratiques. Le présent article présente un exemple supplémentaire de cette implication, passé inaperçu dans les études antérieures: l’adaptation par Modène d’une mélodie polyphonique profane italienne en un hymne liturgique. Après avoir identifié la mélodie et suggéré la date éventuelle de la composition du texte hébreu, l’article analyse cet hymne dans le contexte plus large de la culture musicale juive au tournant des XVIe et XVIIe siècles, notamment en tenant compte des opinions juives contemporaines sur l’usage de chants «étrangers «dans la synagogue.

  • 31^ Lezione Di Rock (1^ Anno 2017/2018)
    31^ LEZIONE DI ROCK (1^ ANNO 2017/2018) Al termine delle vacanze, che spero siano trascorse nel miglior modo possibile per tutti, ritorna puntuale il nostro appuntamento ludico/culturale con i protagonisti della nostra musica. Ormai siano giunti al quarto anno dei nostri incontri, che hanno suscitato vivo interesse, tracciando umilmente la storia del “rock”, a partire dai canti degli schiavi/afro americani, di metà ottocento, e ripercorrendo le gesta dei padri fondatori, fino all’ascolto guidato e partecipato, di “ragtime”, “jazz”, “blues”, “country”, declinato dai solisti, ma anche dalle grandi orchestre, ed approdando al “rock and roll”, ed al mito di Elvis. Sono state raccontate poi, con taglio monografico e/o tematico, le vicende di gruppi o solisti che hanno fatto la leggenda del “rock”, quali “Beatles”, “Rolling Stones”, Bob Dylan, “Led Zeppelin”, “Pink Floyd”, e tanti altri, oltre a narrare eventi che hanno caratterizzato la societa’ ed il costume, oltreché la musica, quali il “Festival di Woodstock”, o quello dell’ “Isola di Wight”. Si è poi trattato dei vari generi che hanno trovato multiformi espressioni nell’ambito del “rock”, quali l’ “hard/rock”, il “folk/rock”, il “blues/rock”, il “progressive/rock”, non trascurando di analizzare il panorama italiano, che seppur con un certo ritardo, ha trovato un suo spazio, anche internazionale, grazie a gruppi quali “P.F.M.”, “BANCO” “ORME”, ECC, ECC. Una lezione è stata dedicata alle “donne del rock”, con l’ascolto di Aretha Franklin, Tina Tuner, Joan Baez, e la mitica Janis Joplin, fino alla trattazione di Joni Mitchell, Sandy Denny, Patti Smith, chiudendo il tema, con la “chicca” delle “Heart”, sorelle statunitensi che hanno reso omaggio ai “Led Zeppelin”, con una stratosferica versione di “Stairway To Heaven”, nel dicembre del 2012, ai “Kennedy Center Honors”, alla presenza del presidente Obama e consorte, e degli stessi “Zeppelin”.

W. NORTON AND COMPANY Ƌ ƋĐƋ W. W. Norton & Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program—trade books and college texts— were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and professional titles published each year—W. W. Norton & Company stands as the largest and oldest publishing house owned wholly by its employees. Copyright © 2013 by W. W. Norton & Company, Inc.
