Digital Presentation of the Long-Sixteenth-Century Church Music Connected to Carniola

Description

The proposed research project will have two main aims. The first will be the development of the digital platform and publishing two digital editions of music monuments from the Slovenian and European cultural heritage and the second will be the study of yet poorly researched special topics within the history of the Central-European long-sixteenth-century music connected to the Slovenian lands. However, the central and most useful part of the project for music historians, music theorists, musicians and general public will be two pilot music editions – digital critical editions, performance materials and scholarly texts on composers and published compositions. In parallel, in-depth research will be carried out in the form of case studies dedicated to known – and maybe also newly found – lacunae in general or Slovenian research on sixteenth-century sacred and church music. The proposed project will bring also the following socio-economic and culturally relevant achievements: an exhibition, a public concert performance with a pre-concert talk, an experimental music workshop, and an international round table.
