1778 berichtete Mozart in Briefen aus Paris, dass er eine Sinfonie-Concertante für vier solistische Blasinstrumente und Orchester komponiert habe, deren Aufführung durch eine Intrige nicht stattfinden konnte. Dieses Werk galt als verschollen, bis im Nachlass des bedeutenden Mozart-Biografen Otto Jahn die Partiturabschrift einer anonymen Sinfonie-Concertante gefunden wurde. Bis heute wird dieses Werk als Mozarts verschollene Pariser Komposition aufgeführt, ohne dass dessen Herkunft und Authentizität je aufgeklärt werden konnten. Die vorliegende Untersuchung greift die Frage nach der Urheberschaft neu auf. Bereits zuvor wurden Zweifel an Mozarts Autorschaft erkennbar, ohne dass sie jedoch belegt werden konnten. Staehelin gelingt es diese Forschungslücke zu füllen und damit ein Geheimnis der Musikgeschichte zu lüften. Er zieht bisher unbekannte quellenkundliche Dokumente heran und analysiert die erheblichen stilistischen Seltsamkeiten des Stückes. Das Ergebnis dieser in Breite durchgeführten Untersuchungen stellt die Echtheit des Werkes grundlegend in Frage.

As part of the Göttingen-based research project "Kleinüberlieferung mehrstimmiger Musik vor 1550 in deutschem Sprachraum" (Minor Transmission of Polyphonic Music Before 1550 in German-Speaking Areas), the Professor Emeritus for Historical Musicology, Martin Staehelin, has systematically indexed previously unknown late medieval sources from Germany and Switzerland. His extensive analysis of various works, including those from the collections of Basel monasteries, the Kassel University Library and the Herzog August Library in Wolfenbüttel, is prefaced by a chapter that presents the technical terms, research criteria and academic relevance of the theme. Im Zuge des Göttinger Forschungsunternehmens "Kleinüberlieferung mehrstimmiger Musik vor 1550 im deutschen Sprachraum" hat der emeritierte Professor für Historische Musikwissenschaften, Martin Staehelin, bisher unbekannte Quellen des Spätmittelalters aus Deutschland und der Schweiz systematisch erschlossen. Der ausführlichen Analyse unterschiedlicher Werke u.a. aus den baslerischen Klosterbeständen, der Universitätsbibliothek Kassel und der Herzog August Bibliothek zu Wolfenbüttel ist ein Grundlagenkapitel zu Sachbegriffen, Untersuchungskriterien und wissenschaftlicher Relevanz des Themas vorangestellt.

This book considers how music, musicality, and ideologies of musicality are working within the specific construction of waka on the theme of male love in Kitamura Kigin’s Iwatsutsuji (1676) and Ihara Saikaku’s Nanshoku ōkagami (1687) by using a modified generative theory of music. This modified theory seeks to get at the interdependent meanings that may exist among the music, image, and the text of the waka in question. In all, this study guides the reader through five waka on the theme of male love and demonstrates not only how each waka is inherently musical but how the image and text may interdependently relate to the ways in which premodern Japanese song poets may not only have thought in and with sound but may have also utilized a diverse array of musical gestures to construct new objects of knowledge. In the case of this study, these new objects of knowledge seem to have aided in situating a changing musicopoetics that aligned with changing constructions of male desire. .

This book analyses the emergence and growth of the creative sector in Naples between the early modern and modern eras, focusing particularly on the development of music markets in the city. From the seventeenth century, Naples became one of the most culturally enriched regions in the Italian peninsula, with internationally known music schools, theatres and opera venues attracting visitors from across Europe in a burgeoning tourist market. This book sheds light on the driving economic factors and political contexts behind this key case study for the early growth of the opera and music sector in Europe. Starting with a discussion of the value of economic history to understanding cultural industries, the chapters approach this analysis through multiple lenses: the formation of human capital as the result of Naples’ institutional urban welfare system; the role of cultural consumption as it evolved from a primarily religious activity to growing popular demand; and the role that central city authorities played in encouraging cultural activity through private investment and public policy. The book also draws on fascinating archival research to examine the contribution of Naples’ music conservatories in the local creative economy. This book is a valuable resource to a broad range of readers, including those working in economic history, tourism history, the history of music and theatre, Italian social history and more. Rossella Del Prete is an Associate Professor of Economic History in the Department of Economics at the University of Sannio, Italy. Her research interests span history and economics, including public history, the economic history of art and culture, governance of cultural heritage, the history of tourism, labour history and female entrepreneurship.

An Erinnerungsorten in der Musik kulminiert ein Ausschnitt von Musikgeschichte in einem Moment der Gegenwart und verweist als bedeutsames Zeichen in die Zukunft. Die Bedeutung manifestiert sich darin, dass die Orte eine identitätsstiftende Funktion für bestimmte Gemeinschaften haben, die so unterschiedlich sind wie die Orte selbst. Denn nicht nur reale oder begehbare, sondern auch imaginierte und metaphorische Orte dienen dem gemeinsamen, gegenwärtigen Erinnern an Musikgeschichte. Auf der Basis einer gründlichen Bestandsaufnahme zum Begriff des Erinnerungsortes widmet sich die Autorin mit historiographischer Genauigkeit und aufschlussreichen kulturgeschichtlichen Bezügen fünf höchst unterschiedlichen Erinnerungsorten in der Musik: Beethovens neunter Symphonie, der Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Mozart und Graz, dem Genre HipHop, der Philharmonie und dem Jüdischen Museum in Berlin. Untersucht werden die Mechanismen ihrer Konstruktion, Beständigkeit und Beweglichkeit, die abhängig sind von individueller Erinnerung sowie institutionellen und gesellschaftspolitischen Kontexten. Inwiefern Musik, um nicht in Vergessenheit zu geraten, der medialen Verankerung und materiellen Verortung bedarf, wird in diesem Buch erkenntnisreich dargestellt. Why do we remember certain music from the past and attribute meaning to it, while other protagonists from the history of music slip into obscurity? Armed with this question, the author embarks upon a journey to sites of memory in music, visiting Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Mozart and Graz, the genre of hip hop, the philharmonic and the Jewish Museum in Berlin.

The life and death, but also the creative work of famous musicians is closely linked to their personal medical histories. In "Famous Composers – Diseases Reloaded" these case histories are vividly reconstructed on the basis of authentic biographical testimonies and closely linked to the personalities of the musicians. The latest research findings on the pathophysiology of these composers will be woven into the overall picture. Was Paganini's "devilishness" caused by a hereditary disease? Did Scarlatti have strange signs of illness on his fingers? What did Bach really die of? How did "Christel" from a dubious milieu change Schumann's entire life? What aggravated Ravel's underlying illness so that he did not complete a single composition in the last five years before his death? How did Tárrega manage to play the guitar again after his stroke with hemiplegia? Did the Brazilian Villa-Lobos' worldwide reputation help him live longer thanks to the best treatment available to him? Andreas Otte, physician and musician, has incorporated the latest medical history research into the composers' pathographies. This book is an exciting and "well-tempered" reading experience not only for physicians, music lovers, musicologists and musicians, but for all readers who want to develop a basic understanding of the pathophysiology and life scores of these great masters under current conditions from today's perspective.

To date there has been no plotting of punk scholarship which speaks to ‘time’, yet there are some clear bodies of work pertaining to particular issues relevant to it, including ageing and/or the life course and punk, memory and/or nostalgia and punk, ‘punk history’, and archiving and punk. Punk, Ageing and Time is therefore a timely (pun intended) book. What this edited collection does for the first time is bring together contemporary investigations and discussions specifically around punk and ageing and/or time, covering areas such as: punk and ageing; the relationship between temporality and particular concepts relevant to punk (such as authenticity, DIY, identity, resistance, spatiality, style); and punk memory, remembering and/or forgetting. Multidisciplinary in nature, this book considers areas which have received very little to no academic attention previously. Laura Way is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Roehampton, UK. She is currently engaged in research projects with young fathers and local Travellers, and ongoing research concerning marginalised identities and punk. Laura’s monograph – Punk, Gender and Ageing: Just Typical Girls (2020) – was the first to focus solely on the experiences of older punk women. She is a qualified teacher in lifelong learning and an experienced qualitative researcher, particularly in the areas of creative and participatory methods, and collaborative, community-based work. Laura is an editor of Sociological Research Online and sits on the editorial board for Punk & Post-Punk journal. Matt Grimes is Senior Lecturer in Music Industries and Radio at Birmingham City University, UK. Matt’s doctorate explored ageing, identity and the ideological significance of anarchism in the life courses of ageing adherents of anarcho-punk. He is currently writing up this research for his forthcoming monograph with Palgrave Macmillan, Ageing, Identity, Memory and British Anarcho-Punk: 'Life We Make' (Palgrave Macmillan). He has published on the subjects of anarcho-punk, anarcho-punk ‘zines, punk pedagogy, popular music and spirituality, DIY/Underground music cultures/subcultures, counter-cultural movements, and radio for social change. He is the Punk Scholars Network’s general secretary and associate editor for Punk & Post-Punk journal. Matt is also a lifelong supporter of Millwall FC.
