La grande cadenza di tradizione con il flauto Il libretto di Salvatore Cammarano e i cambiamenti al testo di Donizetti La prima rappresentazione a Parigi e la versione in lingua francese La drammaturgia dell'opera
La simbologia strumentale
Lucia di Lammermoor in Madame Bovary
Results:
Students involved in the experiment reached a better level of personal skill and competence, in comparison with those who didn't participate
it.wiki's musical articles reached a professional level of their content, and the Italian version of the created/improved articles is now of higher quality compared to the quality of the corresponding articles in other languages
The texts produced for this project are actually still in the articles (apart from minor fixes), after more than a year and dozens of users editing, with a substantial permanence in the course of time
Conclusions:
Editing Wikipedia can be a powerful didactic method
This kind of cooperation is of mutual advantage, is simple to set up and not very hard to maintain
MusicMusic isis neededneeded inin thethe commoncommon knowledgeknowledge, all the Wiki Projects would benefit from a deeper interaction with operators from this field, and there is a Wiki Project for any necessity
Professor Caroccia's Project for a thematic catalogue of Domenico Cimarosa's works, is on its way to be soon used at the same time in:
• WikiBooks, an open-content textbooks collection
• WikiData, a free and open knowledge base that can be read and edited by both humans and machines
• WikiPedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit
Other opportunities for Music in Wiki
WikiSource, the free library that anyone can improve,
provides an excellent resource for giving little known works in the Public Domain, forgotten works that silently and lonely lie in dusty shelves, a chance to be found online from wherever in the Planet and to start a new life of contribution to the human knowledge.
If you have books in your library that no one ever asks you, and they are in the Public Domain, you can digitally publish them on WikiSource, having your institution's name gain some more relevance.
No more a mere cost of maintenance, but an opportunity for your institution to reach new contacts, new researchers, new scholars, new results.
A chance for Music, and for the human knowledge. User:Gianfranco [email protected]
