Jaargang 5 5 The Cruel Machine: eindelijk durven we onder ogen te zien dat de nazi's wel degelijk smaak hadden. Kees Versteeg Passionate. Jaargang 5 6 In den beginne Tijdens de eerste editie in 1972 bezochten niet meer dan 17 personen de openingsvoorstelling in Calypso aan de Mauritsweg. Dat aantal vond de toenmalige wethouder van Kunstzaken De Vos zo laag dat hij weigerde om zijn geplande openingstoespraak te houden. Zo miste deze politicus tijdens deze historische gebeurtenis - indachtig Wim Wenders' Die Angst des Tormanns beim Elfmeter - een kans voor open doel om zelf geschiedenis te schrijven. Niettemin werd het festival een succes: de voorstellingen werden door zo'n 4500 belangstellenden bezocht. Anno 1997 zal de wethouder van Kunstzaken niet veel bedenktijd nodig hebben als hij uitgenodigd wordt om tijdens het International Filmfestival Rotterdam een toespraak te houden. Het festival is uitgegroeid tot een evenement dat iedereen wil bezoeken. Niet alleen politici maar ook vertegenwoordigers uit andere sectoren van de samenleving verzamelen zich in en rondom de filmtempel op het Schouwburgplein: voor tien dagen is Rotterdam the place to be. Wie op de hierboven geschetste openingsavond terugkijkt, beseft welke prestatie er de afgelopen 25 jaar is geleverd. Onder aanvoering van een bevlogen Huub Bals ontwikkelde het festival zich van een elitaire gebeurtenis met een hoog gehalte aan political correctness tot een toonaangevend evenement in de massacultuur.

  • Leksykon Polskiej I Światowej Muzyki Elektronicznej
    Piotr Mulawka Leksykon polskiej i światowej muzyki elektronicznej „Zrealizowano w ramach programu stypendialnego Ministra Kultury i Dziedzictwa Narodowego-Kultura w sieci” Wydawca: Piotr Mulawka [email protected] © 2020 Wszelkie prawa zastrzeżone ISBN 978-83-943331-4-0 2 Przedmowa Muzyka elektroniczna narodziła się w latach 50-tych XX wieku, a do jej powstania przyczyniły się zdobycze techniki z końca XIX wieku m.in. telefon- pierwsze urządzenie służące do przesyłania dźwięków na odległość (Aleksander Graham Bell), fonograf- pierwsze urządzenie zapisujące dźwięk (Thomas Alv Edison 1877), gramofon (Emile Berliner 1887). Jak podają źródła, w 1948 roku francuski badacz, kompozytor, akustyk Pierre Schaeffer (1910-1995) nagrał za pomocą mikrofonu dźwięki naturalne m.in. (śpiew ptaków, hałas uliczny, rozmowy) i próbował je przekształcać. Tak powstała muzyka nazwana konkretną (fr. musigue concrete). W tym samym roku wyemitował w radiu „Koncert szumów”. Jego najważniejszą kompozycją okazał się utwór pt. „Symphonie pour un homme seul” z 1950 roku. W kolejnych latach muzykę konkretną łączono z muzyką tradycyjną. Oto pionierzy tego eksperymentu: John Cage i Yannis Xenakis. Muzyka konkretna pojawiła się w kompozycji Rogera Watersa. Utwór ten trafił na ścieżkę dźwiękową do filmu „The Body” (1970). Grupa Beaver and Krause wprowadziła muzykę konkretną do utworu „Walking Green Algae Blues” z albumu „In A Wild Sanctuary” (1970), a zespół Pink Floyd w „Animals” (1977). Pierwsze próby tworzenia muzyki elektronicznej miały miejsce w Darmstadt (w Niemczech) na Międzynarodowych Kursach Nowej Muzyki w 1950 roku. W 1951 roku powstało pierwsze studio muzyki elektronicznej przy Rozgłośni Radia Zachodnioniemieckiego w Kolonii (NWDR- Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk). Tu tworzyli: H. Eimert (Glockenspiel 1953), K. Stockhausen (Elektronische Studie I, II-1951-1954), H.
