  • Cultivating Hope
    Nr. 14, April-June 2020 Cultivating hope From “The power of hope”, April, 2020 t might seem paradoxical, but this period also represents an opportunity to encounter each other again. Confined in isolation, we perhaps better understand what it means to be a community, and to be radically so. Our life does not depend solely on us and on our choices: we are all in each other’s hands, we all experience how vital interde- pendence is, a web of recognition and gift, respect and solidarity, auton- omy and relationship. Everyone has hope in each other and positively motivates one another to do their part. Everyone matters ... We are familiar with the semantics of distance and proximity and, in all truth, we need both. They are both important elements in the architecture of what we are: without one or without the other, we would not exist. Without primordial proximity we would not have been gen- erated. But even without progressive separation and distinction, our existence would also not take place. Allegory of Hope Stampe.V.102(54) It is true that in the personal and social sphere, many distances are only distorted forms of raising barriers, of inoculating the ideological vi- rus of inequality in the body of the community, of offsetting the balance of our common existence with asymmetries of every order (economic, political, cultural...). And we must also recognize that many forms of proximity are nothing more than arrogance to others, a morbid exercise of power, as if others were our property. Therefore, distance and proximi- ty must be purified.

  • 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.
