Der Fliegende Hollaender: Discografia
2004
Il saggio ripercorre la genesi dell'"Olandese volante" di Richard Wagner, soffermandosi sulle differenze tra la prima e la seconda versione dell'opera. Inoltre, traccia un quadro d'insieme delle incisioni discografiche esistenti, con riferimento alle registrazioni del Preludio dell'opera realizzate da Richard Strauss (nel 1928) e da Bruno Walter (nel 1959).
The reciprocal link between music and movement studied through music-induced movements
2014
Music and movement are inseparable. The movements that are spontaneously procuded when listening to music are thought to be related to the close relationship between the perceptual and motor system in listeners. This particular link is the main topic of this thesis. A first approach was focused on the impact of music-induced movements on music cognition. In two studies, we show that moving along to music neither enhances the retention of new musical pieces (Study 1) nor the retention of the contextual information related to their encoding (Study 2). These results suggest a shallow processing inherent to the expression of musical affordances required for the production of music-induced movem…
La música de lo invisible: modelos iconográficos en el Saint François d'Assise de Olivier Messiaen
2016
Saint François d’Assise (1983) es la única ópera del compositor francés Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992). El presente artículo propone un estudio de las referencias iconográficas que sirvieron a Messiaen de modelo para la caracterización musical y escenográfica de los principales protagonistas de la ópera: San Francisco, el ángel y el leproso. A través de la observación y del análisis de los frescos, las pinturas y los grabados de Giotto, Cimabue, Fra Angélico, Maurice Denis y Mathias Grünewald, desvelamos la especial significación de los personajes que se manifiesta a través del sonido y del color como una unidad. Saint François d’Assise is the only opera written by French composer Olivier Mes…
Armonie oltremontane nella Conca d’Oro: alcune considerazioni su musicisti stranieri a Palermo in Età Moderna
2022
Il presente contributo intende dimostrare l’importanza dei musicisti stranieri (spagnoli, fiamminghi, borgognoni) nel contesto musicale palermitano, in particolare nel periodo compreso tra gli inizi del XV e la prima metà del XVII secolo. Si analizzerà la loro presenza in Sicilia e il modo in cui si mossero attraverso l’isola, per poi concentrarsi sul caso specifico della Cappella Palatina – principale istituzione ecclesiastica del territorio –, e sull’attività dei musicisti al suo interno. L’esempio della Palatina permetterà di mettere in luce il ruolo di Palermo come crocevia culturale tra la Sicilia e la Spagna, nonché i legami della Palatina con le principali istituzioni religiose della…
Génèse et évolution des compétences des élèves à la fin de l'école maternelle : éléments d'analyse à partir de données de panel et d'une expérimentat…
2012
We propose to study in this thesis, a key issue and relatively little discussed in the French research in educational sciences, it concerns the genesis of pupil learning and their evolution during the tuition. We mobilize a longitudinal data (Panel 1997) and the results of a musical experimentation in kindergarten to answer to these questions: How are structured the first acquisitions of pupils and how is it linked to the school context and socio-economic variables? How the cognitive abilities of students affect their academic performance? Are specific activities can improve academic skills through an increase in cognitive abilities? Implicative analysis conducted on panel data has revealed…
A music educational daily program to develop cognitive abilities among pre-school children: a way to prevent academic failure?
2011
The idea that "music makes you smarter" and promotes verbal skills (Ho et al., 2003; Forgeard and al. 2000), spatiotemporal capacities (Rauscher and Zupan 2000) or even the QI (Schellenberg 2006) has received attention from general public and researchers. In this study we examined the effects of music training on pre-school and school performance of kindergarten children, in particular the early writing skills. One main question is investigated: what are the benefits of a specific music program for the cognitive abilities development on preschooler children (age 5)? Is it a way to prevent academic failure? We test this hypothesis with a large sample of 487 French preschoolers split up into …
Does a musical program improve the development of cognitive abilities on kindergarten students: a French experience?
2011
The idea that "music makes you smarter" and promotes both cognitive skills as verbal skills (Ho et al., 2003; Forgeard and al. 2000), spatiotemporal capacities (Rauscher and Zupan 2000), school performances (Wetter et al. 2009) or even boost the IQ (Schellenberg, 2004, 2006) has received attention from researchers and general public. In this study we examined the effects of music practice on pre-school and school performance of kindergarten children, in particular concerning early writing skills. Here, one main question is investigated: what are the benefits of a specific music program in the curriculum for the cognitive abilities development on preschooler children (age 5)?
La Educación Musical en España dentro del currículo obligatorio de Educación Secundaria : estudio comparado entre comunidades autónomas
2020
Despite the fact that there are many studies that identify that the Music Education provides numerous benefits to all those students who study it, the truth is that in Spain there is a regression of its presence in the Compulsory Education as the different educational laws are enacted. If during the LOGSE (1990) both Art and Music Education were compulsory within their respective educational stages, in the last years with the LOMCE (2013) these subjects have become optional. In this way, their presence is at the mercy of the Autonomous Communities. Specifically, this article analyses the current situation of Music within the Compulsory Secondary Education through a comparative study among t…
Conveying Audience Emotions Through Humanoid Robot Gestures to an Orchestra During a Live Musical Exhibition
2017
In the last twenty years, robotics have been applied in many heterogeneous contexts. Among them, the use of humanoid robots during musical concerts have been proposed and investigated by many authors. In this paper, we propose a contribution in the area of robotics application in music, consisting of a system for conveying audience emotions during a live musical exhibition, by means of a humanoid robot. In particular, we provide all spectators with a mobile app, by means of which they can select a specific color while listening to a piece of music (act). Each color is mapped to an emotion, and the audience preferences are then processed in order to select the next act to be played. This dec…
‘Guilbert juge de Jean-Jacques’ ovvero Yvette interpreta Rousseau
2016
Nell'articolo vengono presi in esame i due arrangiamenti di arie di Jean-Jacques Rousseau che il musicista ginevrino Gustave Ferrari ha fatto per la cantante parigina Yvette Guilbert, nei primi anni dieci del Novecento. Nella prima parte viene presentata la personalità di Yvette Guilbert, e come questa sia pervenuta alle musiche di Rousseau. Nella seconda parte vengono proposte analisi comparate delle composizioni originali di Rousseau e degli arrangiamenti di Ferrari: in questi ultimi le melodie originali sono rispettate (pur con qualche manipolazione nella distribuzione dei testi fra le strofe) e invece sono modificati gli accompagnamenti, che rispettano un certo gusto dell'originale, riv…
