  • SUGGESTIONS for POSSIBLE SHORT TRIPS to Get An
    SUGGESTIONS FOR POSSIBLE SHORT TRIPS To get an introduction about the area near the conference: Why You Really Should Visit Italy's Outstanding Barolo Wine Region https://www.forbes.com/sites/catherinesabino/2018/10/28/why-you-really-should-visit-italys- outstanding-barolo-wine-region/#7bd3de632f89 Note that the Langa district is best visited by car. Because of its territory, the district is not accessible by train (except for Alba, which is connected to the railway system). However, driving in the Langa district should not be a problem since it is in the countryside and not in a big city. For reference, Bra and Alba have ~30,000 people each. Some of the villages referenced below are much smaller: Pollenzo (a subdivision of Bra) and Barolo have only ~700 people. Furthermore, besides the picturesque hills and the historic castles and buildings, this area is also about food and wine. So you can pair some of the suggestions below with the restaurant suggestions also available on the conference website. There are also several wine tours that are normally organized in the area and, besides the suggestions below, you can just search online for what suits your interest. 1) Tour of the Barolo Langa district: Barolo, La Morra, and Verduno Note: Requires a car. Also, distances are short and so one can break these itineraries into smaller ones as desired. Barolo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barolo,_Piedmont) is the town in the middle of the vineyards of nebbiolo grapes that produce the famous wine of the same name. It is a medieval village developed at the foot of the castle.

    home page > luoghi > ...visitare Palazzo Reale Torino, Piazzetta Reale 1 È la prima e la più importante tra le residenze sabaude del Piemonte, teatro della politica del regno sabaudo per almeno tre secoli, il Palazzo Reale di Torino è collocato nel cuore della città, nella centralissima piazza Castello, da cui si diramano le principali arterie del centro storico: via Po, via Roma, via Garibaldi e via Pietro Micca. Palazzo Carignano (Museo Nazionale del Risorgimento) Torino, Via Accademia delle Scienze 51 Palazzo Carignano, progettato nella seconda metà del Seicento da Guarino Guarini, è un edificio storico situato nel centro di Torino ed è considerato da sempre uno dei più pregevoli esempi di Barocco europeo. Insieme a Palazzo Reale e a Palazzo Madama fa parte dei più importanti edifici storici della città. Giardini Reali Torino, Piazza Castello 189 Si trovano dietro Palazzo Reale e terminano in corso san Maurizio. Si accede ad essi da Piazza Castello, passando per l'ingresso di Palazzo Reale. Furono progettati nel 1697 da André Le Nôtre, “padre” del parco di Versailles. Palazzo Madama Torino, Piazza Castello 19 Sito nel cuore di Torino, in quello che doveva essere il castrum romano (ovvero il centro geografico della città), Palazzo Madama sorge su quella che, al tempo dell'antica Roma, era chiamata Porta Decumana. Agli inizi del I secolo qui si aveva la via d'accesso alla città dal lato del fiume Po, che andava, per la sua strategica posizione, difesa accuratamente: dopo la caduta dell'Impero Romano, la porta venne trasformata in un forte, atto alla difesa cittadina. Palazzo dell'Accademia delle Scienze (Museo Egizio - Galleria Sabauda) Torino, Via Accademia delle Scienze 6 Il Palazzo dell'Accademia delle Scienze è un imponente edificio seicentesco.

Marconi 18 Bus Stop n. Donizetti 18 EUROPEAN ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY NETWORK THIRD INTERNATIONAL MEETING PROGRAMME AND TOURS Welcome to the Third International EAHN Meeting in Turin After the two successful International Meetings in Guimarães (2010) and Brussels (2012), we are now gathering in Turin for our Third International Conference. Turin, “the nicest village in the world” for Montesquieu, “one-company town” for so many 20th-century observers, has many histories that can speak for it. In the last fifteen years, Turin’s cultural offer and its tourist accommodation capacity have widely increased. The city is reorganizing its economic identity also by promoting and being host to an array of cul- tural activities, exhibitions and conventions related to the cultural heritage, considered in its broad range of artistic, architectural, environmental as- sets and resources. World-famous events have reshaped Turin’s public im- age. The Winter Olympic Games (2006), the exhibition of the Holy Shroud (2010), and the celebrations of the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy (2011), put much energy into the connection between mega-events and cultural elaboration, through an extensive programme of exhibitions, historic symposia and thematic itineraries. Turin is home to a lively community of historians and has attracted the inter- est of architectural and urban historians during most of the 20th century. The city’s baroque architecture gained the early attention of scholars such as Albert Erich Brinckmann, who in 1931 dedicated to Turin and Pied- mont his book Theatrum novum Pedemontii: Ideen, Entwürfe und Bauten von Guarini, Juvarra, Vittone.

  • Piazza San Carlo
    BOTTEGHE STORICHE CHIESE E CAPPELLE PALAZZI ED EDIFICI STORICI ToTo TORINO TOUR FOR ALL ARCHITECTURE PLACES SITI ARCHEOLOGICI MONUMENTI IL QUADRILATEROARCHITETTURA URBANA POINT OF INTEREST 1 PIAZZA CASTELLO Torino Tour for All begins in the very heart of the city, piazza Castello, which spans about 40 thousand square meters. It is bordered to the northeast by piazzetta Reale and it merges four of the main downtown roads: via Garibaldi (a pedestrian street), via Po, via Roma and via Pietro Micca. During the Savoy reign, and then in the post-Unification period, Piazza Castello was the center of the Piedmontese State. It is surrounded on three sides by monumental porches, built in different times. In the mid XIX century, the west arcades were nicknamed Arcades of the Fair, because of the market housed during Carnival. On Piazza Castello there are several historical buildings, starting from via Garibaldi and proceed- ing clockwise: Palace of the Regional Council, Church of San Lorenzo, Royal Palace, Royal Library and Armory, State Archives, Government Palace (now the Prefecture Palace), Royal The- atre and the Galleria dell’Industria Subalpina (Subalpine Gallery of Industry). At the center of the square there is Palazzo Madama. Ascanio Vitozzi, architect of the Duke of Savoy Carlo Emanuele I, designed piazza Castello start- ing from 1587. The square was born to frame in a neat space the existing Senate and to accom- modate the Novo Palazzo Grande, today’s Royal Palace. Despite the architectural interventions of 1612 and 1773, piazza Castello maintains its configuration in three areas: the oldest, whose structure dates back to Roman times, on the side of Via Garibaldi, the area connecting Piazza Castello to the river through Via Po and the area of the Piazzetta Reale which was once divided from the square by a brick wall.

    TORINO MOZART´S STAY On their first trip to Italy, Mozart and his father Leopold stopped in Turin from 14 to 30 January 1771 and stayed at the Hotel Dogana Nuova in Via Corte d'Appello 4. The building still exists and the hotel is now run under name of Hotel Dogana Vecchia. While in Turin, Mozart father and son probably met some personalities of the Savoy court, including Francesco Lascaris di Castellar, the foreign minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia, cavalier Carlo Flaminio Raiberti, count Francesco Teodoro Carron De Brianzone and count d'Aguilar, the Spanish ambassador to Turin. Little is known about the musicians Mozart may have met, although he probably was introduced to Gaetano Pugnani, a violinist and composer who had recently been appointed concert director of the court orchestra, Alessandro and Paolo Besozzi, and the violinist Carlo Francesco Chiabrano. What seems very likely, however, is that Mozart met Quirino Gasparini, a noted violoncellist of the time and composer from Bergamo who was active in Turin and held the position of Kapellmeister of the cathedral until his death in 1778. Interestingly, Gasparini's work, Adoramus te, Christe, which Leopold copied because he thought it an excellent piece, found its way into Mozart's collection of works and so was eventually attributed to him (K. 327).

  • Yes, Virginia, Another Ballo Tragico: the National Library of Portugal’S Ballet D’Action Libretti from the First Half of the Nineteenth Century
    YES, VIRGINIA, ANOTHER BALLO TRAGICO: THE NATIONAL LIBRARY OF PORTUGAL’S BALLET D’ACTION LIBRETTI FROM THE FIRST HALF OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ligia Ravenna Pinheiro, M.F.A., M.A., B.F.A. Graduate Program in Dance Studies The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Karen Eliot, Adviser Nena Couch Susan Petry Angelika Gerbes Copyright by Ligia Ravenna Pinheiro 2015 ABSTRACT The Real Theatro de São Carlos de Lisboa employed Italian choreographers from its inauguration in 1793 to the middle of the nineteenth century. Many libretti for the ballets produced for the S. Carlos Theater have survived and are now housed in the National Library of Portugal. This dissertation focuses on the narratives of the libretti in this collection, and their importance as documentation of ballets of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, from the inauguration of the S. Carlos Theater in 1793 to 1850. This period of dance history, which has not received much attention by dance scholars, links the earlier baroque dance era of the eighteenth century with the style of ballet of the 1830s to the 1850s. Portugal had been associated with Italian art and artists since the beginning of the eighteenth century. This artistic relationship continued through the final decades of the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century. The majority of the choreographers working in Lisbon were Italian, and the works they created for the S. Carlos Theater followed the Italian style of ballet d’action.

  • 2015, Abbiamo Scoperto Che La Fantasia Ministeriale È Sconfinata
    CONSIGLIO GENERALE 24 MAGGIO 2016 FONDAZIONE ORCHESTRA SINFONICA E CORO SINFONICO DI MILANO GIUSEPPE VERDI Piazza Tito Lucrezio Caro 1 20136 Milano 24 MAGGIO 2016 1 TUTTO NEL MONDO È BURLA, L’UOM È NATO BURLONE, LA FEDE IN COR GLI CIURLA, GLI CIURLA LA RAGIONE. TUTTI GABBATI! IRRIDE L’UN L’ALTRO OGNI MORTAL. (FALSTAFF, atto III) In 23 anni di attività pensavamo di averle viste tutte, ma nei primi giorni di aprile 2016, mentre stavamo chiudendo il bilancio 2015, abbiamo scoperto che la fantasia ministeriale è sconfinata. Per meglio dire, oggi il potere degli uffici ministeriali può fare tutto e il contrario di tutto. A luglio 2015, per esempio, può dichiarare per laVerdi – e mettere a verbale della Commissione consultiva per la musica, ovvero della Commissione che deve dare un parere sui contributi del Fondo unico dello spettacolo – che “l’Amministrazione ritiene, solo per il corrente anno, doversi assegnare il contributo a titolo di complesso strumentale”. A domanda di un commissario “se il finanziamento de laVerdi nell’ambito del settore dei complessi strumentali riguarderà tutto il triennio, il dott. Graziano ribadisce che l’assegnazione a titolo di complesso strumentale avviene solo per il 2015. La Commissione prende atto”. Ora, sarebbe interessante vedere il grado di autonomia della Commissione che il 30 marzo 2015 riconosce la Verdi come ICO, che prende atto che il Ministero ha chiesto a laVerdi, dopo il decreto del Ministro in data 1 aprile 2015, di formulare la domanda come ICO e che il 1 luglio viene “declassata” a complesso strumentale con l’affermazione che tale situazione vale solo per il 2015.

  • The Development of Room Acoustical Demands on Operas Within the Last 50 Years
    The development of room acoustical demands on operas within the last 50 years Gerhard Mtiller and Helmut A, Mtiller Mtiller-BBM GmbH, Robert-Koch-Str. 11, D-82 152 Planegg, Germany Abstract: Using the experiences gained by eliminating the room acoustical complaints about an opera house, it will be shown that the room acoustical design criteria had to be slightly modified and extended, It turned out that speech intelli- gibility is less important than a merging sound. Furthermore, the acoustical contact among musicians and their feedback to the auditorium has to be taken very seriously, In addition, a flawless acoustical localization of the sources on the stage by the audience is of importance. DEVELOPMENT FROM ROYAL TO MODERN OPERAS When designing the Festspielhaus Bayreuth, Richard Wagner departed from the old-fashioned horseshoe- shaped royal opera and tried to create an auditorium where all of the visitors could see and hear equally well. When rebuilding the destroyed theatres after World War 11,many architects took up this idea. In addition, the acousticians of that time believed in the results of simple opinion polls which questioned audience and musi- cians and which seemed to indicate that in operas only the sound transmission from the stage, resp. the or- ches~a pit to the auditorium and a high speech intelligibility are of importance. Therefore, all the sound en- ergy produced by the sources was directed to the auditorium, and the reflections were used for compensating the decreasing sound pressure with distance. Late reflections were eliminated or at least weakened by sound absorbing linings so that a low reverberation time and a high speech intelligibility were obtained.
