Audiomobiles, Sculptures and Conundrums
No full textRoberto Gerhard was a pioneer of electronic music in England creating a number of substantial concert, theatre and radio works from as early as 1954. Gerhard’s electronic music is one of the richest repositories for understanding the development of the composer’s late compositional technique. Apart from the Symphony no.3, ‘Collages’, none of Gerhard’s electronic music is published. This paper will discuss aspects of Gerhard’s electronic music, focusing on Audiomobiles (1958-59) and Sculptures (1963)

Roberto Gerhard’s Sound Compositions: A Historical-Philological Perspective. Archive, Process, Intent and reenactment
No full textThis research advances the current state of knowledge in the field of early tape music both empirically and methodologically. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact that the electronic medium exerted in the musical thinking of Roberto Gerhard, one of the most outspoken, prolific and influential composers in the Spanish diaspora whose musical legacy, for the most part unknown, is a major landmark in the early history of electroacoustic music. Gerhard’s personal tape collection, one of the largest historical archives of its kind reported in the literature, is exceptional for both its antiquity (50+-year-old tapes) and its abundance of production materials. Through the digitisation and analysis of the composer’s tape collection this research argues that the empirical study of audio documents sets out a basis for a broader understanding of textual processes. More specifically, the research demonstrates that the reconstruction of works based on magnetic tape sketches is a powerful method to advance the understanding of early tape music. This research also examines Gerhard’s sound compositions in relation to the post-war context in which they were composed. Finally, this research presents performance documentation that proposes an approach to the electroacoustic music repertoire in which creativity is not at odds with rigor and critical discernment demonstrating that archival study can be closely aligned to the concept of re-enactment
Spazi e paesaggi della produzione: Roberto Pane e il patrimonio industriale attraverso la fotografia
No full textNella vasta produzione bibliografica di Roberto Pane - i cui interessi hanno spaziato dall’architettura, alla città e al paesaggio - stupisce la quasi assenza, eccetto poche note, di scritti relativi al patrimonio industriale, a dispetto del grande successo di questi temi in Italia sullo scorcio degli anni Settanta. Pur riconoscendo l’originalità del tema, le motivazioni di questo scarso interesse vengono chiarite dallo stesso Pane e sono riconducibili a una profonda consapevolezza del danno inferto alla città e al paesaggio dall’industrializzazione, che cercherà di documentare anche attraverso lo strumento della fotografia, come nel caso partenopeo dell’area industriale di Bagnoli. Il presente contributo, infatti, intende proprio indagare il rapporto tra Roberto Pane e il patrimonio industriale attraverso la fotografia, mostrando la sua attenzione anche ad aspetti della vita dei lavoratori negli spazi produttivi, con una spiccata curiosità per gli strumenti e per i macchinari

No full textRoberto Pane e il racconto della Carta di Venezia: esiti della nozione di “ambiente” tra gli anni Sessanta e Settanta
No full textThe concept of «urban and landscape setting» as an object of protection, explicated in Article 1 of the Venice Char-ter, testifies to a strong link with Roberto Pane’s theory of environmental values, which – matured especially in the post-war years – was to accompany him uninterruptedly throughout the rest of his career.
By retracing the occasions in which the content and objectives of the Venice Charter are described and popularized by Pane himself, the proposed contribution intends to focus on how that very concept of the setting, that helped de-fine an extended dimension of protection, matures and evolves over a decade
