Musical Interiors: 1500 to Present - 10.00 Friday 20 Jun 2008 Event type: Conference. A one-day interdisciplinary conference organised in association with the Royal College of Music drawing together new research on music-making and design from the Renaissance period up to the present day. The conference will have a particular focus on the domestic music room, but will also consider other musical interiors. Individual papers will engage with a variety of disciplines including art and design history, musicology, interior design and architecture, and will cross historical and geographical boundaries. The day will be the culmination of a series of workshops on the music room held at the V&A in 2006 and 2007. The conference will also provide an opportunity to examine and contextualise the links between music and designed objects and spaces. It will consider the evolution of the music room, and the production and consumption of musical objects. It will raise questions about privacy, class and the idea of gendered space, and it will address the impact of changes in musical taste and technology on interiors. Programme Flora Dennis - Music Rooms and Renaissance Italy Sophie Pickford - Musical Performance Spaces and the French Renaissance Chateau Laura Moretti - The Octagonal Vaulted Room as Performance Space in Renaissance Italy Tim Barringer - Greenery-Yallery: Paintings as Musical Objects Sophie Fuller - The Musical Salon in Late Victorian and Edwardian London Juliet Simpson - Interior Symphonies: Music, Sense and the French Symbolist "Maison d'Art" Victoria Atkinson - Woven Harmony: Matisse's Musical Textiles Christopher Cook - Entertainment in a Box: Domestic Design and the Radiogram and TV Organised in association with the Royal College of Music. £45, concessions available |
