The Logic of Filtering
From the very beginnings of sound recording, engineers have strived to reproduce the original sound as purely as possible and overcome the noise that technology leaves in recordings. However, this desire denies the fact that technologically mediated sound is always shaped and filtered by themany channels it travels through as it is recorded and reproduced. The noise that each medium inscribes on recorded sound is not just inescapable - it is fundamental to the sonic contours that characterize recorded music. But how exactly do media technologies shape sound and music? And how have theychanged what we listen for in music over time?In The Logic of Filtering, author Melle Jan Kromhout develops ...
Classical Concert Studies
Classical Concert Studies: A Companion to Contemporary Research and Performance is a landmark publication that maps out a new interdisciplinary field of Concert Studies, offering fresh ways of understanding the classical music concert in the twenty-first century. It brings together essays, research articles, and case studies from scholars and music professionals including musicians, music managers, and concert designers. Gathering both historical and contemporary cases, the contributors draw on approaches from sociology, ethnology, musicology, cultural studies, and other disciplines to create a rich portrait of the classical concert’s past, present, and future. Based on two earlier volumes published in German under the title Das Konzert (The Concert), and with a selection of new chapters written for the English edition, this companion enables students, researchers, and practitioners in the classical and contemporary music fields to understand this emerging field of research, go beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries and methodologies, and spark a renaissance for the classical concert.
Geräusch - das Andere der Musik
Geräusche sind noch keine Musik - oder keine Musik mehr. Im Konzert, im Tanz wie im Film sind die Grenzen zwischen Musik und Geräusch unscharf und beweglich: Aus dem Störgeräusch wird Musik, aus Wohlklang Lärm. Es ist daher für die Wissenschaft unerlässlich, das Geräusch zu untersuchen, wenn sie verstehen will, was Musik ausmacht. Im Spannungsfeld zwischen der modernen Universalität der Musik - »alles ist Musik« - und ihrer notwendigen Kehrseite bilden sich Abstufungen, Grauzonen, Verbindungen und Brüche, die in diesem Band von Wissenschaftlern und Künstlern, darunter Michel Chion und Gilles Aubry, diskutiert werden.

Kompositionen für hörbaren Raum / Compositions for Audible Space
The integration of audible space is a central aspect of electroacoustic music. Ever since the earliest analogue days of electroacoustic music, pioneers of the genre - including Pierre Schaeffer, Iannis Xenakis, Karlheinz Stockhausen, and Luigi Nono - used special devices and methods for their compositions and refined the possibilities of integrating the sound of space into music. In this anthology, analytical portraits of compositions and groups of compositions show the wide spectrum of spatial practices in early electroacoustic music. Additionally, retrospective views on the use of spatial composition in earlier epochs and in instrumental music of the 20th century portray the practice of sp...
Der Tod und das Ding
Textile Dinge sind vielseitige und allgegenwärtige Begleiter des Alltags. Sie prägen Erfahrungswelten und Körper; sie kommunizieren gesellschaftliche und individuelle Belange. Wie aber betreffen Tod und Vergänglichkeit diese dynamische Beziehung zwischen Mensch und – textiler – Materialität? Welche Potentiale bergen Kleidung, Textilien und Mode in diesem Kontext? Die Beiträge des Sammelbandes gehen diesen Fragen nach: Seine dreizehn Autor*innen begreifen Materielle Kultur als einen Gegenstandsbereich ihrer Disziplin und als eine spezifische Sicht auf die Kultur von Tod und Vergänglichkeit. (Textile) Materialitäten verleihen Ideen und Konzepten in diesen Kontexten eine verfügbare...
