 Music Printing and Publishing in Modern Italy – New Approaches

 International Workshop

Venice, 13-14 February 2014

Printed music is quantitatively the most important source for the study of European music of the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Since a significant part of the music editions printed before 1800 were produced in Italy, with a peak between the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century, there is a clear need to investigate this production from many points of view: production contexts, repertoire selection processes, marketing strategies, processes and canals of international dissemination and reception, transmission history of surviving editions, historiographical perspectives on these sources as tools for the study of musical phenomena of the past.

 

The international workshop Music Printing and Publishing in Modern Italy – New Approaches has three main objectives:

  • to discuss the latest results of recent research in the field of music printing and publishing in Italy before 1800.
  • to encourage exchange of scholars working in this area and develop new research approaches and perspectives.
  • to present and discuss some innovative research tools, as the new database Printed Sacred Music in Europe 1500-1800.
