Music Drama Institutions and Power: Paris 1806-1864 (MDIPP)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Music for the stage has always been embedded in a network of power relationships between states, impresario's librettists, artist, entrepreneurs and composers. MDIPP seeks to understand and explain how these relationships function in a particularly well-documented domain; the period when French music drama was subject to a system of licences, 1806-1864. The project examines institutional structures and their relationship both to those responsible for the creation and cultivation of stage music in the period and on the structure and from the resulting works them.
