Dear all,
Apologies for cross posting. I wanted to share the Guildhall School’s upcoming ResearchWorks series of events, which we run regularly throughout the term with the intention of sharing innovative research findings in the performing arts.
Music, asylum-seeking and the mobile phone

Presenting a song-writing project she has developed with such asylum-seekers in eastern Sicily, Professor Rachel Beckles Willson (Royal Holloway, University of London) will reflect on the creative value of mobile technologies in such fraught border zones.

Staging Difficult Pasts
Monday 17 June, 6pm , Milton Court Seminar Room
This panel will analyse and compare international approaches to staging difficult pasts across major theatres and museums, including the Teatre Lliure (Barcelona) and the Cricoteka & Ethnographic Museum (Krakow). Maria Delgado (Royal Central School of Speech and Drama) and Bryce Lease (Royal Holloway) will consider how historical memory is given dramatic shape or performatively confronted by theatre makers and curators primarily through narrative and object.

The beginnings of recorded music in Spain
Friday 21 June, 7pm, Milton Court Rehearsal Room 1
In this lecture-recital, professor Eva Moreda (University of Glasgow) and Ricardo Gosalbo (Guildhall School) look back at the beginnings of commercial recorded music in Spain, both in the hands of multinationals such as Gramophone and Victor, and small-scale local businesses (the so-called ‘gabinetes fonográficos’) which recorded on wax cylinders. Particular attention will be paid to the first Spanish opera and zarzuela singers to record for the phonograph and gramophone, whose voices open up a fascinating window on the singing techniques and repertoires that Spaniards were familiar with around 1900
