It has long been known that practicing musicians and dancers draw upon interdisciplinary relationships between sound and movement to inform their work and that many performance arts educators apply these relationships in working with aspiring composers, choreographers and performers. However, most material on the subject has been, to this point, relegated to single chapters in books and journal articles. Now, Sound, Music and the Moving-Thinking Body brings together the diverse topics researchers and practitioners across the sector are exploring, and raises issues concerning the collaborative aspects of creating and performing new work. Sound, Music and the Moving-Thinking Body is a result of the Composer, Choreographer and Performer Collaboration Conference of Contemporary Music and Dance/Movement 2012 hosted by the Institute of Musical Research, Senate House, University of London, and the Department of Music at Goldsmiths, University of London.

Sul suolo abruzzese la linea Gustav ristagna dall’ottobre 1943 al giugno dell’anno dopo, seminando ovunque morte e distruzione. Qui le popolazioni civili, entro quadri geografici e storici molto peculiari, vengono coinvolte nelle forme più tipiche e atroci del secondo conflitto mondiale: evacuazioni in massa, bombardamenti, stragi, scontri all’arma bianca, fino alla «terra bruciata». Solitamente di questo scacchiere bellico nella pubblica opinione – e anche nella letteratura corrente – viene ricordata la «battaglia di Cassino», facendone così risaltare soprattutto, se non esclusivamente, il versante tirrenico, dal lato strettamente militare come pure da quello resistenziale. ...

Lawrence D. Butch Morris (1947-2013) was an American jazz cornetist, composer and conductor, internationally considered one of the great musical innovators of our times. His interests in ensemble music--from avant-garde jazz to contemporary classical--crystallized into a unique method of real-time orchestral composition, which he called Conduction(R), designed to enable conductors to direct an ensemble. Morris toured the world, introducing Conduction to a varied community of musicians, and his influence extended into art, dance, poetry and cinema. The Art of Conduction is a theoretical introduction and practical guide to Conduction. During the last 10 years of his life, Morris worked to document his method in this book form; his untimely death left it near finished. Finally Daniela Veronesi, a linguist and longtime collaborator, brings his manuscript to completion.
