SUMMARY:The beginnings of recorded music in Spain
DESCRIPTION:The beginnings of recorded music in Spain \nThis lecture-recital will cover\, through both historical recordings and live performance\, the beginnings (1896-1914) 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; their names are scarcely known nowadays (Josefina Huguet\, Pepita Alcácer\, Marina Gurina\, Anita Lopeteghi\, Amalia Campos\, etc.)\, but their voices open up a fascinating window on the singing techniques and repertoires that Spaniards were familiar with around 1900. \nLos inicios de la fonografía en España \nEsta conferencia-concierto explorará\, a través de grabaciones históricas y música en directo\, los inicios (1896-1914) de la fonografía comercial en España\, tanto a manos de multinacionales como Gramophone y Victor como de pequeños negocios locales conocidos como “gabinetes fonográficos” que grababan en cilindros de cera. La conferencia prestará especial atención a las primeras cantantes españolas de ópera y zarzuela en realizar grabaciones fonográficas y gramofónicas\, cuyos nombres son hoy poco conocidos (Josefina Huguet\, Pepita Alcácer\, Marina Gurina\, Anita Lopeteghi\, Amalia Campos\, etc.)\, pero cuyas voces nos abren una fascinante ventana sobre las técnicas de canto y los repertorios que se escuchaban en España en torno a 1900. \nLecturer: Prof. Eva Moreda (University of Glasgow) \nEvent free to attend but booking is required at:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-beginnings-of-recorded-music-in-spain-registration-59585690404 \nMore information:\nhttps://www.gsmd.ac.uk/about_the_school/view_all_events/?tx_julleevents_pi1%5BshowUid%5D=6113

SUMMARY:(Dis)embodied singers in Cervantes
DESCRIPTION:Given that printed texts don’t come with sound effects\, it’s not obvious why characters in novels are made to speak\, let alone sing; and when they do\, what are we supposed to hear? Cervantes was clearly fascinated by the challenge of ‘writing singing’ and returned to the problem time and again. In the majority of cases he wrote singing as a performance in real time\, with the (often lengthy) lyrics pasted into the main text of the novel. But this paper will discuss a number of alternative approaches drawn from Don Quijote (1605\, 1615)\, the Novelas ejemplares (1613) and Persiles y Sigismunda (1616). In all of Cervantes’s major works we find singers who are de-voiced\, disembodied or disempowered: a shipwrecked Portuguese lover\, a nun with a beautiful voice\, a muleteer with ‘the best voice you’ll ever hear’\, and Feliciana de la Voz\, a woman who is her voice—until she loses it. \nLecturer: Barry Ife\, Guildhall School of Music & Drama

SUMMARY:Francisco de Goya in love and song
DESCRIPTION:Lecture-recital with Dr Jacqueline Cockburn\, Karen Schriesheim (soprano)\, Jorge Navarro Colorado (tenor) and Dan Bovey (classical guitar) \nProgramme to include: \nFernando Sor (1778-1839)\n– Cesa de atormentarme\n– Mis descuidados ojos\n– El que quisiera amando\n– Puede una buena moza\nEnrique Granados (1867-1916)\n– Callejeo (from ‘Tonadillas en estilo antiguo’)\n– El majo olvidado (from ‘Tonadillas en estilo antiguo’)\n– El mirar de la maja (from ‘Tonadillas en estilo antiguo’)\n– El majo tímido (from ‘Tonadillas en estilo antiguo’)\n– La maja de Goya (from ‘Tonadillas en estilo antiguo’) \nGoya\, a rough and rebellious artist and the beautiful but capricious duchess of Alba embarked on a liaison which has kept lovers of Goya’s art amused and gossiping for over two hundred years. Over his career however\, he painted women as lover and procuress\, sinner and saint\, worker and aristocrat\, heroine and victim\, goddess and witch. This lecture will explore the many varied ways Goya represented women during his life time. We will explore his relationships with and approaches to women. Naked or clothed they appear in their many guises as Muses who inspire his scrutiny and at times his satirical glance. Women’s roles changed during the eighteenth century. Some lit cannons and battled with a waning Inquisition. Others ruled over the country or were patrons of the arts. Many were victims of war and some were burnt as witches. Goya’s glance is often adoring; his brushstrokes seem to caress their bodies lovingly and sensually. He is also sympathetic and horrified and provides us with extraordinary historical insights. \nGoya’s work inspired musicians and composers and this lecture will be accompanied by singers\, Jorge Navarro and Karen Schriesheim and the classical guitarist Daniel Bovey.\nHaving attended the Spanish military academy\, Fernando Sor (1778-1839) took part in the Spanish War of Independence between 1808-1814. Many composers were forced into exile after the war as a result of their liberal views. Like Ledesma\, León and García\, Sor joined a numerous colony of Spanish exiles in London. Sor wrote many Canciones patrióticas in his exile\, perhaps in the hope of spreading his political message or simply driven by a certain nostalgia/homesickness. These Canciones became remarkable political symbols\, were sung in cafes\, streets\, theatres\, salon gatherings\, and served to bring together Spaniards. Granados’ Tonadillas\, written around 1914\, were inspired by Goya’s depictions of 18th century Madrilenian majos and majas. They bear witness to the extent to which Goya’s work influenced Spanish artists beyond his time and beyond the realm of art. \nDr Jacqueline Cockburn is Managing Director of Art and Culture Andalucía (www.artandcultureandalucia.com) She runs residential courses in Andalucía\, Southern Spain in the art and culture of the region. Jacqueline also works in London as a free-lance lecturer. She lectures at Grace for The Art Story\, the V and A\, Christies Education\, The Art Fund\, The London Art History Society and Art Pursuits Abroad as well as several other prestigious institutions and is accredited by The Arts Society working all over the world for them delivering lectures on a variety of art historical topics. Her specialist field is Spanish Art but she also lectures on European Art 1790-1950. She lectured at Westminster School\, London and Birkbeck College\, University of London for over 20 years. She took her first degree in Modern Languages then an M.A in Sao Paulo Brazil on Applied Linguistics. Her Art History degree and PhD were taken at London University.

SUMMARY:Bécquer Settings
DESCRIPTION:Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer is one of the most famous and celebrated authors in Spanish literature. His poems\, though short and few\, are considered one of the pillars of modern Spanish poetry\, and their mark beyond Spanish literature is patent in Spanish music with the large number of composers who have set his verses to music. \nHis poetry is rich and complex\, yet seems completely spontaneous. It combines the influence of high poetry\, with a popular/folk tone. Bécquer wished no doubt to emphasise this apparent simplicity by calling his poems ‘Rimas’ (rhymes in english). This sincerity and modesty come in sharp contrast with other Spanish poets of his time\, whose poetry\, though elegant\, was generally didactic and declamatory. Instead\, Bécquer would follow the example being set in Germany\, finding great inspiration in particular in Heinrich Heine’s work. As early as 1861\, he wrote about the ‘necessity for Spanish popular song to be elevated and become a true art form’. Thus\, he became instrumental in the development of the Spanish Lied\, some examples of which we will hear this evening. \nThis evening’s programme includes early song settings of the 1870s and 1880s\, settings by Andalusian composers (Turina\, Falla)\, and Federico Mompou’s 1971 song cycle ‘Canciones becquerianas’.

SUMMARY:Razones de estado: El Quijote en la zarzuela
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer / Conferenciante: Begoña Lolo (Directora del Centro Superior de Investigación y Promoción de la Música de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid) \nLecture in Spanish / Conferencia en castellano \nABSTRACT / RESUMEN\nEl Quijote fue desde el primer momento de su publicación una obra muy utilizada por los compositores europeos como tema de inspiración\, en todo tipo de repertorios\, a lo largo de los siglos. Francia\, Inglaterra\, Alemania e Italia\, inmediatamente utilizaron la obra a medida que se fueron produciendo las traducciones\, algo que sucedió en un periodo de tiempo muy breve desde su publicación. \nSin embargo\, en el caso de España\, fue necesario esperar  al siglo XIX para que la obra de Cervantes fuese utilizada como tema de inspiración en la música. La imagen de la decadencia de España alimentada por la leyenda negra\, la crisis económica y la independencia de nuestras colonias\, necesitaba con urgencia de la búsqueda de un icono cultural que ayudase a emanar una nueva imagen. Por esta razón la Real Academia Española entronizó la celebración del día 23 de abril\, en 1861\, como día de las Letras y día de Cervantes\, fecha que se celebró con el estreno de la primera zarzuela escrita sobre tema cervantino debida al compositor Barbieri\, que incentivó el enorme desarrollo posterior.
