Celebrating 100 Years of Musical Outreach in Scandinavia
2016
This article outlines the significant, but less investigated historical development of musical outreach; the professional symphony orchestras effort to introduce classical music to new audiences, especially children and adolescents. Many Norwegian symphony orchestras have held public concerts for 100 years and throughout this period they have set up strategic objectives regarding outreach. Through a series of musical examples from various concerts targeting new audiences, the article draws a historical overview of the different concepts of concerts that have developed from the early 1900s till today. In order to better understand the uniqueness of these concerts, and enable us to appreciate…
Early auditory processing in musicians and dancers during a contemporary dance piece
2016
AbstractThe neural responses to simple tones and short sound sequences have been studied extensively. However, in reality the sounds surrounding us are spectrally and temporally complex, dynamic and overlapping. Thus, research using natural sounds is crucial in understanding the operation of the brain in its natural environment. Music is an excellent example of natural stimulation which, in addition to sensory responses, elicits vast cognitive and emotional processes in the brain. Here we show that the preattentive P50 response evoked by rapid increases in timbral brightness during continuous music is enhanced in dancers when compared to musicians and laymen. In dance, fast changes in brigh…

Federico Incardona, lo Zephir Ensemble e i concerti di Nuova Musica a Palermo (1988-2003)
2012
Dopo l’esperienza ormai storica delle Settimane Internazionali Nuova Musica, fu alla fine degli anni Ottanta che a Palermo, soprattutto grazie alla nascita di un gruppo stru-mentale con vocazione specifica per la musica del Novecento ― lo Zephir Ensemble diretto da Francesco La Licata ― presero le mosse nuovi progetti organici sulla musi-ca contemporanea, mentre emergeva una nuova generazione di compositori siciliani. Centrale e determinante fu il ruolo del compositore Federico Incardona (1958-2006) che, animato da una visione etica e politica dell’arte intesa come strumento di crescita collettiva e di liberazione, si pose consapevolmente come erede e continuatore della tradizione delle Set…
Silesian Texans – przyczynek do relacji o stanie zachowania muzycznej kultury
2019
Śląscy Teksańczycy, od ponad 150 lat mieszkający w okolicach San Antonio w Teksasie, to dziś grupa szacowana przez niektórych badaczy na ok. 200 tysięcy (1%) mieszkańców tego stanu. Osie-dlali się zwykle grupowo, w przeciwieństwie do tzw. emigrantów brazylijskich z podobnego czasu. Tak powstały i istnieją do dziś osady o nazwach: Panna Maria (tu się wszystko zaczęło), Cesto-chowa, St. Hedwig, Kościuszko, Bandera i inne. Historię osadnictwa, losów rodzin, zachowania języka i kultury materialnej ujmują publikacje, niejednokrotnie niezwykle szczegółowe. Trudno podobny sąd wyrazić o badaniach stanu zachowania kultury muzycznej. Jednocześnie szczątkowe dane, zebrane niejednokrotnie niejako przy …
An Interactive MIDI Accompanist
1998
The ability to infer beat and meter from music is one of the basic activities of musical cognition. After hearing only a short fraction of music, we are able to develop a sense of beat and to tap our foot along with the music. Even if the music is rhythmically complex, containing a range of different time values and possibly syncopation as well, we are capable of inferring the different periodicities present in the music and synchronizing to them. Simulating this activity with a computer program might seem, at first glance, to be simple. If a note onset (that is, an attack) occurs before the system expects it to occur, the estimated tempo is increased, and vice versa. In practice, however, …
Uloga glazbe u dubrovackom pastoralnom teatru u 16. stoljecu. (The Role of the Music in the Pastoral Theatre in Dubrovnik during the Sixteenth Centur…
2004
The 16th-century pastoral plays in Dubrovnik (Ragusa), like the Italian ones which inspired them, are marked by the strong presence of sounds, songs and choruses to increase the fantastical and sentimental emphasis of the performances. Their evolution, from Dzore Drzic eclogues to the pastorals of Antun Sasin, and through Mauro Vetranovic's "Orfeo", is characterized by the acquisition of a Petrarchian language in the Croatian pieces of Nikola Naljeskovic. In the Dubrovnik pastoral plays, unlike the Italian ones, the presence of shepherds, nymphs, and rustic men (the "vlasi", Engl. Walachians or Morlacks) as well as the fantastic and comic elements, is constant. Music supports a narrative fu…
