Musical Networking in the ‘Long’ 19th Century

15-17 October 2020, Zagreb
Call for Papers
15th International Musicological and Interdisciplinary Conference of the Croatian Musicological Society.
Place Zagreb, Croatia, October 15-17, 2020, the Library of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Strossmayer square 14

Organizers: Croatian musicological society, the department for the history of croatian music of the croatian academy of sciences and arts, the croatian institute of history

A musician cannot prove him- or herself as an artist without an audience, without a performance space, without the support of a benefactor, without an instrument builder to create musical instruments – the musician’s performing tools, without a reviewer who would spread the musician’s fame. He or she could probably have not become an artist without a teacher, or music to be performed – either from memory, or from a manuscript or a print. All these persons and artefacts make part of the infrastructure that enables The Artist to realise his or her special gifts, and each of them is a part of or creates their own network.

As, for example, a musicological or a cultural project theme gathers people in a vertical network in order to achieve a common goal, a musician creates various horizontal networks in achieving their own goal, an event that would give the musician the opportunity to present his or her artistic qualities in public (concerts, theatre performances) or in private (salon).

A musical network analysis examines the structure of relationships between various components, not all of them being (always) directly connected to music. They might be individuals but also groups or institutions, even musical pieces or publications.

However, the aim of the conference is not to discuss the theory but to present case studies, whose variety gives a vivid picture of the social history of music of the (very) ‘long’ 19th century. Not only musicologists but also historians and sociologists dealing with music are welcome to contribute to that common goal.

Suggested themes include, but are not limited to:

The relationship between teacher(s) and pupil(s)

Musicians on tours

Theatre/opera companies and their networks

Composers and publishers/copyists

Musical salons

Music as a means/medium of representation (political, social, etc.)

Benefactors, Patrons and their (musical) circles

The establishment of musical institutions and their networks

Music collections and their creators

Researchers in music and their networks

Interaction and overlapping of musical networks

Forms of communication in musical networking (postal service, roads and railways)
