RECITAL AND URBAN SETTING IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY
International Conference
LA SPEZIA, CAMEC
11-13 July 2013
http://www.luigiboccherini.org/alkan.html
Organized by
Centro Studi Opera Omnia Luigi Boccherini, Lucca
Società dei Concerti, La Spezia
In association with
Palazzetto Bru Zane - Centre de musique romantique française, Venice
The conference aims to investigate the recital (defined as a concert
given by both a single and a small group of performers) within the
context of the transition from a rural society to an industrialized
and urbanized one. The scientific committee encourages the submission
of proposals that analyze the relationship between places,
institutions, performers, recital repertory in Europe and beyond and
their relation to the sociological, economical and technological
dynamics associated with the period in question.
Two sessions will be devoted, respectively, to France as the nation
that saw the initial flourishing of the recital, and Charles-Valentin
Alkan, on the bicentenary of his birth. The programme committee
encourages submissions within the following areas, although other
topics are also welcome:
· The Roots of the Recital
· The Recital and the Growth of International Music Business
· The Recital and the Transformation of Urban Setting
· Capital Cities, Towns, Small Musical Centres and Institutions
· Concert Halls and Architectonical Conceptions
