An important number of publications bears the title 'Music in' followed by
the name of a city. However, the city itself has often been a mere spatial
background where institutions and musicians operated rather than the main
focus of attention. After Strohm's 'Music in late Medieval Bruges' (1985)
and the influential series 'Man and Music' (1989-93), a different approach
is beginning to be adopted: the city emerges now as a place where the
individuals and institutions involved in the production of music interacted
among themselves in a complex and changing equilibrium, while establishing
relationships which shaped to a great extent the creation of music. One of
the advantages of an urban approach, which is intrinsically
interdisciplinary, is the possibility of pursuing an overall reconstruction
of the musical events so that functions and signifiers can be interpreted
more accurately.

This conference attempts to integrate methodologies drawn from several
disciplines. On the one hand, approaches used by urban history: the focus
of this type of study is the music production in a particular city
considered as part of a urban system. On the other, views developed by
microhistory and local history: a city is not chosen to verify preconceived
premises, but rather to describe in detail particular events in precise
contexts. Finally, studies on cultural history have progressively blurred
scholarly frontiers among disciplines, a situation which limited the
exchange of results, experiences and approaches. Thus, music history should
converge with other disciplines to describe complex events with different
social and symbolic codes.

PROGRAMME
This conference attempts to combine the presentation of the most recent
research with the debate about methodologies. It will be divided into three
sessions formed by a keynote paper (around 30 min.), three or four
responses (10 min. each) and some free papers. A final round table will
bring together different scholars and approaches.

SESSION I: INSTITUTIONAL STUDIES
The allegedly fundamental role that the hierarchically most important
*capillas de musica* have played in the history of music has recently been
questioned. This session will examine the contribution of 'minor'
institutions such as parish churches or confraternities to the urban
musical life.

SESSION II: SOCIAL STUDIES
This session will focus on how musicians participated in the social life of
cities and how they WERE integrated within the urban fabric. Some of the
issues to be dealt with are: patterns of residence of musicians, personal
contacts inside and outside the place of work and family background.
Attention will also be given to the processes through which musicians
forged a defined social group with a recognised identity.

SESSION III: URBAN RITUAL
Documents related to urban rituals provide information about the varied
participation of music in feasts, ceremonies and processions which took
place in the urban space. The interpretation of these sources allows an
approach to repertories which no longer exist or were never written down.
It also helps to integrate the participation of music in the cultural
context in which it adopted and transmitted its original meaning.

No pocas publicaciones ostentan el titulo "La musica en..." seguido por un
nombre de ciudad. Sin embargo, la ciudad como tal ha sido enfocada a menudo
meramente como el fondo del que destacar las instituciones en ella
localizadas y sus musicos mas sobresalientes, antes que como objeto
primario de la investigacion. A partir de la monografia de R. Strohm sobre
la musica en Brujas (1985) y de la influyente coleccion historico-musical
"Man and Music" (1989-1993), un enfoque diferente ha venido afirmandose: la
ciudad como el lugar donde individuos e instituciones involucrados en la
produccion musical interaccionan en un complejo y cambiante equilibrio,
estableciendo unas relaciones que determinan en buena medida la creacion
musical. El 'enfoque urbano' se caracteriza por su pretension hacia una
reconstruccion global de los acontecimientos en los que participo la
musica, con el fin de interpretar funciones y significados de su presencia,
en un planteamiento intrinsecamente interdisciplinar.

Este congreso se propone integrar premisas metodologicas planteadas por
diversas disciplinas. Por un lado, las metodologias de la historia urbana
en la medida en que el objeto es la produccion musical en una ciudad
determinada considerada como un sistema (en comparacion o no con la de
otras, y/o dentro de una red de ciudades). Por otro, las de la
microhistoria por cuanto la ciudad no es escogida para verificar localmente
teorias generales preconcebidas, sino para indagar hechos concretos en
contextos determinados, de los que se propondra una interpretacion los mas
generalizadora posible. Finalmente, los estudios de historia cultural
urbana han venido desdibujando aquellas fronteras entre especialidades que
han limitado el intercambio de informacion y experiencias con otras
disciplinas. La historia literaria, del arte y de la musica deben por lo
tanto converger para describir satisfactoriamente acontecimientos
complejos, resultantes de la presencia simultanea de diferentes codigos
sociales y simbolicos tales los que, por ejemplo, acontecen en los rituales
festivos, religiosos u oficiales.

PROGRAMA
El congreso se propone primariamente como momento de reflexion
metodologica, con la intencion de potenciar lo mas posible el debate y la
discusion. Para ello se estructurara en tres sesiones, con una ponencia
principal de 30 min. y tres o cuatro respuestas de 10 min. cada una. Otras
tres o cuatro ponencias libres por sesion completaran el debate sucesivo.
Una mesa redonda conclusiva servira para sacar conclusiones de lo discutido
en los trabajos del congreso.

SESION I: ESTUDIOS INSTITUCIONALES
El debate se desarrollara a partir de las recientes contribuciones que han
redimensionado el papel propulsivo tradicionalmente atribuido a las
capillas jerarquicamente mas relevantes, para destacar el peso de
instituciones 'inferiores' (como capillas de iglesias parroquiales).

SESION II: ESTUDIOS SOCIALES
Esta sesion plantea cuestiones relacionadas con la participacion de los
musicos en la vida social de las ciudades y con el modo en que se
integraron en el tejido social. Algunos de los temas de esta sesion son:
distribucion de la residencia de los musicos dentro de la ciudad, contactos
personales tanto dentro como fuera del lugar de trabajo o contexto
familiar. Igualmente, se describir·n los procesos de constitucion de los
musicos como un cuerpo social dotado de una identidad reconocida.

SESION III: RITUAL URBANO
Los testimonios de los rituales urbanos aportan informacion acerca de la
variada participacion de la musica en las fiestas y ceremonias que
jalonaban la vida cotidiana. La investigacion en este terreno permite
aproximarse a repertorios no testimoniados directamente, ademas de enmarcar
los productos musicales en el contexto cultural en el que asumieron su
significado primario.
