Music and Sound in European Theatre: Practices, Performances, Perspectives: Routledge Advances in Theatre & Performance Studies

Editat de David Roesner, Tamara Yasmin Quick
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 noi 2024
The need for a research volume on European theatre music and sound is almost self-evident.  
Musical and sonic practices have been an integral part of theatre ever since the artform was first established 2,500 years ago: not just in subsequent genres that are explicitly driven by music, such as opera, operetta, ballet, or musical theatre, but in all kinds of theatrical forms and conventions. Conversely, academic recognition of the role of theatre music, its aesthetics, creative processes, authorships, traditions, and innovations is still insufficient. This volume unites experts from different disciplines and backgrounds to make a significant contribution to the much-needed discourse on theatre music. The term itself is a shapeshifter that signifies different phenomena at different times: the book thus deliberately cast a wide net to explore both the highly contextual terminologies and the many ways in which different times and cultures understand ‘theatre music’. By treating theatre music as a practice, focusing on its role in creating and watching performances, the book appeals to a wide range of readerships: researchers and students of all levels, journalists, audiences, and practitioners.  
It will be useful to universities and conservatoires alike and relevant for many disciplines in the humanities.
