The Clarinet in Spain
This book is the first monograph about clarinet and wind music in Spain, studying the professionalisation of the Spanish clarinettists from the early 19th century. The social, academic and professional environment of wind musicians are addressed here through the case study of clarinettist, teacher, composer and deputy bandmaster of the Municipal Wind Band of Madrid, Miguel Yuste Moreno (1870-1947). An analysis and study of the national and international influences on the Spanish clarinet repertoire is offered here, especially, the premiere of Brahms's chamber music for clarinet.
Perspectives on Contemporary Musical Practices
This volume sheds light on the wide range of perspectives on musical activity today, and shows how it can be analyzed from different points of view, working within a diverse theoretical framework. It is organized into three sections, the first of which discusses the changing contexts of musical work compositions over the 20th century. The second part offers a rich and in-depth musical analysis, rigorously connected to the performative and interpretative dimension, while the third considers the relationship between technology and music, and its influence on the creation of new paradigms for musical performance and creation. Covering practical and theoretical problems, the collection will be of great interest to scholars, professionals, students of music, composers, and performers.

Such revelations call into question metanarratives about the exploitation of one group by another and bring to light interlocking systems of identity formation, and consequently oppression, that are difficult to disentangle. The authors included here study this dynamic in a variety o...

La Gran Vía de Madrid. Historia social de una ciudad extinta (1860-1936)
El propósito que surge al plantear una investigación sobre el centro urbano madrileño es el de definir su especificidad y las diferencias planteadas en sus ritmos evolutivos con respecto a otros espacios urbanos (Ensanche y Extrarradio) durante un período en el que la ciudad dio un gran salto de escala desde un punto de vista económico, social y político. Este objetivo nos ha llevado a intentar descifrar las causas y consecuencias del proceso que transformó la fisonomía de este espacio desde un punto de vista funcional, estructural y social entre mediados del siglo XIX y el estallido de la Guerra Civil. La construcción de la Gran Vía es un tema central dentro de una investigación ...
