On the one hand, from a purely historical point of view, it is worth remembering that most of the music for the films of the silent era no longer exists. On the other hand, a vast repertoire of stock photoplay music has come down to us from the silent era, as an example of specialised publishing in the field of film music. Collections such as <i>Kinothek, Motion Picture Moods, Filmharmonie</i>, and many others consisted of original pieces that were not associated with a specific film but were designed to fit into standard narrative situations or to provide a common emotional aura.</p><p>The practice of reusing and re-functionalising mood music pieces, constantly hovering between composition and compilation, raises philological questions concerning the multiple definition of the musical text, its author, and its performance. The score of a piece of stock photoplay music is not, in fact, the source of an opus in the strict sense of the term. It is not an aesthetically grounded entity, but rather an operational instruction at the service of a subsequent creative act: the one that will shape the musical accompaniment of a particular film screening in the cinema.</p><p>The ubiquity of photoplay music is not the exception, but the rule. Indexing and cataloguing a source of stock photoplay music is not in itself useful historical knowledge if it is complemented by knowledge of its adaptive uses. These, however, are not to be found in the primary source, but must be reconstructed by consulting secondary sources of various kinds, from cue sheets to journalistic reviews, which only in their constellation give an account of the cinematic show as a whole.</p><p>French Abstract:</p><p>La notion de \"source\" pose des problèmes considérables pour l'étude de la musique de film muet.

{"title":"The Music for Salon Orchestra and its Use in Silent Films","authors":"Marco Targa","doi":"10.1353/fam.2024.a933074","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/fam.2024.a933074","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;English Abstract:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Recently, the study of music in silent film has brought attention to a musical repertoire that had enormous growth between the end of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth century: salon music. This repertoire has not yet been fully investigated, although it has an evident historical importance in the development of cinematographic music and it represents a fundamental link between the nineteenth-century musical tradition of highbrow origin and the explosion of popular music genres at the beginning of the twentieth century. The main core of this repertoire is based on three typologies of pieces: transcriptions from the operatic and symphonic repertoire, original pieces in Romantic style, and dances and songs. The analytical study of this repertoire aims to bring its historical importance back into perspective, transforming it into an object of investigation with its own autonomy, rather than a phenomenon simply derived from the classical repertoire, devoid of its own interest and, therefore, negligible. The clarification of the peculiar characteristics of its musical language is fundamental to begin to outline an aesthetic of musical compilation in the silent film era. Studies of music in silent films has in fact concentrated more on the phenomenon of original scores, quantitatively marginal, while neglecting the study of compiled musical accompaniment, which was the most diffused form of accompaniment. This study, in addition to filling the historiographical gap that still exists, provides information fundamental to understanding the subsequent developments of early sound films.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;French Abstract:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Récemment, l'étude de la musique du cinéma muet a fait émerger un répertoire musical qui a connu un essor considérable entre la fin du XIXe siècle et les premières décennies du XXe siècle : la musique de salon. Ce répertoire n'a pas encore fait l'objet d'une étude approfondie, bien que son importance historique dans le développement de la musique cinématographique soit évidente et qu'il représente un lien fondamental entre la tradition musicale du dix-neuvième siècle issue de la haute société et l'explosion des genres musicaux populaires au début du vingtième siècle. Le noyau principal de ce répertoire repose sur trois types de pièces : des transcriptions du répertoire opératique et symphonique, des pièces originales dans le style romantique, ainsi que des danses et des chansons. L'étude analytique de ce répertoire vise à remettre en perspective son importance historique, en le transformant en un objet d'étude autonome, plutôt qu'en un phénomène simplement dérivé du répertoire classique, dépourvu d'intérêt intrinsèque et, par conséquent, négligeable.

Wissner, and Trudi Wright&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Sound Pedagogy: Radical Care in Music&lt;/em&gt; answers the urgent and overdue call for transformation in the field of music in higher education. Rooted in recognition of the historical entanglements of post-secondary music education with racist, sexist, and ableist ideologies, the contributors articulate the imperative for a caring and kind approach to pedagogy as a pathway toward social justice and equity. The authors of this volume ask us to collectively take an honest look at our field and acknowledge 'who remains absent … who feels unwelcome, unnecessary or ignored' (p. 6) and confront how certain groups have not been given the space to flourish. Drawing on William Cheng's &lt;em&gt;Just Vibrations&lt;/em&gt; (Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press, 2016), and informed by interdisciplinary scholarship in fields such as queer studies, disability studies, and critical race theory, this volume not only critiques the pervasive hierarchies and exclusions within music education but also offers tangible frameworks and guides for enacting transformative methodologies. The adoption of Care Pedagogy is not only ethically imperative but also essential for addressing the growing mental health crises within academic institutions. Through a nuanced exploration of power dynamics, curriculum design, and classroom practices, this volume challenges conventional notions of teaching and learning in music education and advocates for a paradigm shift that prioritises the holistic wellbeing and empowerment of individuals and communities.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The volume's sixteen chapters are divided into three parts, with contributions from administrators, counselors, and faculty. 'Part I: The Heart of Curricular Interventions' features Radical Care methodology enacted through curricular design. These interventions offer a change from within familiar classroom structures and syllabi. 'Part II: Unmeasured Pedagogical Horizons' focuses on interventions that engage communities beyond the post-secondary classroom.

{"title":"From 'Agitato' to 'Yearning': Interpreting Stock Music for Silent Film Through Data Analysis, Pathos Formulae, and New Cataloguing Practices","authors":"Paul Allen Sommerfeld, Benjamin Barba","doi":"10.1353/fam.2024.a933075","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/fam.2024.a933075","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;English Abstract:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since the 1970s, the musicological study of music for silent film has centred on composed or compiled scores for specific films, be it score reconstructions, genre studies, or accompaniment practices. Stock photoplay music, written for general use in silent film accompaniment, has received less comprehensive—if growing—focus. Ephemeral in nature, much of this music can be challenging to locate, thought lost, or impossible to link to identifiable productions. More recent scholarship has explored stock music in the early sound era as well as the tracked and library music in the burgeoning television music industry of the 1950s, but stock photoplay music for silent film lacks a similarly rigorous interrogation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This article draws on newly created metadata for thousands of stock photoplay music titles housed in the Library of Congress Music Division and scanned as part of the digital collection, &lt;i&gt;Silent Film Scores and Arrangements&lt;/i&gt;, to demonstrate additional avenues for topoi analysis in silent film music that, in turn, influenced the development of music for sound film. The catalogue solutions that facilitated, informed, and expanded this work are also outlined. Together, the cross-disciplinary work necessary to create the structured data within this digital collection demonstrates the value of collaborative efforts between musicology and music librarianship for film music research. The stock photoplay music within this digital collection especially illustrates the significance for future research in understanding how contemporary creators of film music conceptualised the burgeoning genre. The article presents its arguments in three sections. First, the article describes the historiographical, or how the Library of Congress Music Division collection came into being and what it comprises. Then, it dives into the bibliographic, including cataloguing workflows and decisions that facilitated these efforts. Finally, the article ends with the aesthetic and ontological, with a focus on understanding and tracing of music topics within this collection of stock photoplay music.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;French Abstract:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Depuis les années 1970, l'étude musicologique de la musique des films muets s'est concentrée sur les partitions composées ou compilées pour des films spécifiques, soit en reconstituant des partitions, soit en étudiant des genres, soit en s'intéressant aux pratiques d'accompagnement. Les catalogues incidentaux, conçus pour un usage général et destinés à l'accompagnement des films muets, ont fait l'objet d'une attention moindre, bien que croissante. Éphémère par nature, une grande partie de cette musique peut être difficile à localiser, considérée comme perdue ou impossible à relier à des productions identifiables.

Born in New York to a family of Ukrainian immigrants, Boshko became a renowned pianist in the 1920s on the U.S. concert stage. A graduate of the prestigious Ethical Culture School and the Juilliard School, she epitomises a generation of musicians who came of age and launched their careers during the tumultuous years of World War I. Furthermore, she serves as an exemplar of a female pianist, shedding light on the challenges women faced in achieving artistic recognition in the U.S. during the first half of the twentieth century. Boshko has left behind only a handful of music recordings, with half of them intended for player pianos. Consequently, her interpretations are better recognised through newspaper reviews rather than audio recordings. While she primarily performed as a solo pianist, she also provided invaluable assistance to famous musicians during their tours in the U.S., including Feodor Shalyapin, Eugène Ysaÿe, and Pablo Casals. While Boshko's name may be forgotten today, she undeniably enriched the landscape of the U.S. concert stage, leaving an indelible mark on its history.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;French Abstract:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cet article révèle et met en évidence, pour la première fois, la vie et la carrière artistique de la pianiste Victoria Boshko.

Diplômée de la prestigieuse Ethical Culture School et de la Juilliard School, elle incarne une génération de musiciens qui se sont formés et ont lancé leur carrière pendant les années tumultueuses de la Première Guerre mondiale. En outre, elle représente un exemple de femme pianiste, mettant en lumière les défis auxquels les femmes ont dû faire face pour obtenir une reconnaissance artistique aux États-Unis durant la première moitié du vingtième siècle. Boshko n'a laissé derrière elle qu'une poignée d'enregistrements musicaux, dont la moitié était destinée à des pianos mécaniques. Par conséquent, ses interprétations sont davantage reconnues par le biais de critiques de journaux que par des enregistrements audios. Bien qu'elle se soit avant tout produite en tant que pianiste soliste, elle a également apporté une assistance inestimable à des musiciens célèbres lors de leurs tournées aux États-Unis, notamment Feodor Shalyapin, Eugène Ysaÿe et Pablo Casals.

First came farmers in search of free land to cultivate, and later craftsmen, entrepreneurs, intellectuals, and artists arrived.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The subject of cooperation between Croatians and Czechs in the sound recording industry can be traced from the paper labels on recordings, which reveal that many Czech records were produced in Zagreb, while many Croatian records were produced in Ústí nad Labem and Prague in what is today the Czech Republic.

Self-taught on the flute, he was acclaimed as the finest flautist of his generation in France, possessing an impeccable tone combined with delicacy, sensitivity, and excellent intonation: it should be recalled that the one-keyed flute of Blavet's time was notoriously difficult to play perfectly in tune. Blavet also played the bassoon, was a composer of flute music, and, of particular importance in the context of the present book, a wellrecognised teacher whose students enjoyed distinguished careers as flautists. The entry on Blavet in the 'Annotated Lexicon' of De Reede's volume includes a comprehensive summary of the player's life and work, and for those unfamiliar with Blavet, a reading of these pages (pp. 72–75) is recommended before commencing a perusal of the text.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Following an 'Éloge de Monsieur Blavet', further chapters of the book focus on the careers of Blavet's distinguished pupils PierreÉvrard Taillart and Félix Rault before concluding with a comprehensive 'annotated lexicon' and bibliography.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The 'Éloge de Monsieur Blavet' is a facsimile of an eight-page extract from &lt;em&gt;Le Nécrologe des hommes célèbres de France&lt;/em&gt; of 1770, giving an orthodox eulogy of the musician's life and culminating in an account of his death from complications of liver surgery in 1768. Inclusion in &lt;em&gt;Le Nécrologe&lt;/em&gt; confirms the significance of Blavet in his native land but, unfortunately, no English translation of the eulogy is given.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Pierre-Évrard Taillart (c.1715–1782) was perhaps the most likely candidate to be labelled as Blavet's successor in his quadruple roles as flautist, teacher, composer, and publisher. He should not be confused with his brother, known as Taillard le cadet or le jeune, also a flautist but not of the standing of Pierre-Évrard.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Taillart succeeded Blavet at the Concert spirituel in 1751 and became known for his delicacy of expression, not only reflecting the traditional early eighteenth-century French style of flute-playing but also embracing the more virtuosic style of the increasingly popular Italian flautists. His high register extended beyond that of his predecessors (and of Johann Joachim Quantz) and he was regarded as one of Europe's finest flautists. As a teacher he was in dem","PeriodicalId":41623,"journal":{"name":"FONTES ARTIS MUSICAE","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140299889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the archive is no longer conceived simply as a place of storage, but as a process of creation of information. Thus, digital music archives constitute a repository of knowledge where memory is constructed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the case of the digital archive of the Provincial Council of Soria, where almost 1,000 hours of recordings derived from fieldwork in the province since 2014 have been catalogued and made available to the user. For this purpose, each melody has been analysed, classified, and ordered following specific criteria. The digital space has allowed sounds, music, and collective memory representing a specific social reality to be recognised as archive material worthy of being digitised and disseminated, and therefore linked to current museological narratives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Abstract:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pour un ethnomusicologue, le travail d’archivage est une partie indispensable de sa recherche : en enregistrant, sélectionnant, incorporant et classifiant les répertoires compilés, il crée de nouvelles archives.

À cette fin, chaque mélodie a été analysée, classée et ordonnée selon des critères spécifiques. Ainsi, grâce à l’espace numérique, les sons, la musique et la mémoire collective représentant une réalité sociale spécifique ont été reconnus comme du matériel d’archive digne d’être numérisé et diffusé, et par conséquent lié aux récits muséologiques actuels.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Abstract:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Für Ethnomusikologen ist die Archivarbeit unverzichtbarer Teil der Forschung: Mittels der Verzeichnung, Auswahl, Einbeziehung und Klassifizierung des zusammengestellten Repertoires erstellen sie neue Archive.

Somit stellen digitale Musikarchive Wissensspeicher dar, die zum Aufbau des kulturellen Gedächtnisses beitragen.
