Sound Archives amid memory, restitution and new cultural processes

On the occasion of the publication of all the sound recordings in the digital catalogue of the Veronese nucleus of the Conati-Camellini Fonds, the Institute is organising a round table dedicated to the theme of the protection and enhancement of sound archives of ethnomusicological interest. The reflections focus on the framing of the real and potential roles of sound archives of traditional music in the cultural processes of the present and the near future. Analysing the cataloguing model adopted by the Institute for the description of the Conati-Camellini Fonds, the discussion also focuses on methodological issues, such as the identification of effective and sustainable strategies for the online cataloguing and dissemination of this type of source online.
