CFP TITLE: «Performance Practices and Architectural Spaces of the Italian Madrigal»
LOCATION: Virtual Conference
DATE: 13-15 December 2024
organized by
Centro Studi Opera Omnia Luigi Boccherini

Moving away from the composer-based model established by Alfred Einstein in his monumental study, recent scholarship on the Italian madrigal has greatly expanded its scope of investigation, tackling a variety of subjects that span from the social ramifications of the genre to its relations with print and manuscript cultures. Despite this recent expansion, the question of performance practice, including the spaces in which this repertoire was performed, remains understudied. This conference aims to enrich our understanding of how and where Italian madrigals were performed. To this end, the conference will address issues ranging from improvisation and ornamentation to the training of performers. Further, the conference will explore the variety of private or public spaces where madrigals were performed, such as ridotti, loggias, and gardens, shedding light on the mutual relationship between architecture, acoustics, and music making. Thus, the conference will also offer an interdisciplinary outlook that combines architectural studies with musicological scholarship.
