From\u00a029 to\u00a031 January 2015<\/strong>, the Intercultural Institute for Comparative Music Studies organizes the\u00a0XX edition\u00a0of the International Seminar on Ethnomusicology curated by\u00a0Francesco Giannattasio:\u00a0<\/span>\u201cMusical traditions: patrimonies, archives, and new creativities.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the past two Seminars we have extensively debated the issues of status, perspectives, tasks and methods of investigation for a comparative musicology of the XXI Century, in the light of recent dramatic changes in the cultural and social scenario that characterizes the world in this new century. In order to update our discipline to the new reality that we are facing, we have thoroughly scrutinized several terms, concepts, and categories that have theoretically characterized and shaped our discipline: ethnicity, cultural identity, traditional music, and dichotomies such as high\/low, oral\/written, art\/popular, functional\/aesthetic, synchronic\/diachronic, including the term, by now increasingly anachronistic and outdated, of ethnomusicology.<\/em><\/p>\n

It is time now to draw consequences from such debate of general character, and to address directly the heart of the problem: the status and the nature of musical traditions that are the object of an inter- and transcultural inquiry.<\/strong> To this aim, the XX edition of the International Seminar on Ethnomusicology is particularly appropriated \u2013 also in a symbolic sense, due to the anniversary \u2013 to make an attempt to establish where we are today on the real substance of those musical traditions of which our discipline statutory deals with.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

If the substitution of the worn out and not meaningful term \u2018traditional music\u2019 (is there a music that is not traditional ?) with \u2018musical traditions\u2019 gives the sense of a Copernican revolution that we are obliged to accomplish, by now, we believe that a better and more realistic awareness of our object\/s of study may stem from a careful and non ideological reflection:<\/em><\/p>\n

a) on the concrete content of abstract concepts (only apparently politically correct) such as \u2018patrimony\u2019, \u2018patrimonialization\u2019, and \u2018intangible heritage\u2019;<\/em><\/p>\n

b) on the new value,also heuristic, that take today the policies and the concrete contents of musical archives;<\/em><\/p>\n

c) on the transcultural implications of the several new creativities that express themselves today, in ways that differ, also dramatically, in the music\/s of the world.<\/em><\/p>\n

Various are the issues that may nurture our debate in this way. For example:<\/em><\/p>\n

1) What is the real temporal and spatial extension of the concept of patrimony, especially in the light of the multiple conferred meanings (intangible, untouchable, insurmountable, unmarketable, implausible, and so on) that such concept takes in the concreteness of new \u2018cultural\u2019 policies that, on the surface, apparently respect differences, while based actually on economic interest and ghettoizing strategies ?<\/em><\/p>\n

2) To what extent sound and multimedia archives reflect, facilitate or limit the extension of the concept of patrimony ?<\/em><\/p>\n

3) How identify, study and enhance the new musical creativities without being conditioned by preconceptions hidden behind conservative notions such as patrimony and patrimonialization ?<\/em><\/p>\n
