About this ebook:
INTRODUCCIÓN La música se encuentra presente en muchos momentos de la vida. A veces lo hace de manera inconsciente, bajo la forma de sonido ambiental o música de fondo, y a veces lo hace de manera más ostentosa, como sucede en todo tipo de celebraciones colectivas a las que anima y hasta organiza en ocasiones. También la encontramos en circunstancias en las que se convierte en protagonista, como sucede, por ejemplo, en los conciertos o cuando alguien canta alguna canción para los amigos. Su escucha siempre produce algún efecto importante: ayuda a disfrutar, relajarse (o excitarse), concentrarse (o distraerse), reforzar la consciencia corporal, comunicarse unos con otros, o matizar las relaciones sociales. Y también llega a hacer cosas tan importantes como inspirar teorías filosóficas, exaltar creencias religiosas, aumentar la productividad de los trabajadores, o representar la estructura social de determinados grupos humanos. Parece, pues, que es algo proteico, capaz de acompañar momentos humanos de muy diferente categoría, y adoptando muy diferentes formas de presentación. Hasta la época de la fonograbación, el sonido musical siempre venía «de alguien», y, si existía, era porque ese «alguien» se dirigía hacia el oyente de una manera personal. Por eso, la actividad musical implica siempre alguna forma de relación con los demás (lo que hace que algunos la consideren como «la más social de todas las artes»). Pues lo cierto es que nunca se hace en solitario. Y así, al requerir un encuentro entre personas, ofrece formas más o menos ritualizadas de estar unos con otros y muestra de qué tipo es ese encuentro. Algo tan delicado que no puede hacerse con los medios de expresión ordinarios. Por eso existe como forma cultural con entidad propia. Efectivamente, durante las actividades musicales, cada uno participa según el espacio social que ocupa. Tocando, cantando, bailando con amigos o compañeros, o escuchando silenciosamente en la oscuridad, señala de qué manera se sitúa ante los demás. Yendo a determinados conciertos o comprando determinados discos, tocando determinada música o viajando para escuchar a determinado director de orquesta, se suscriben determinadas formas de vida. Y al identificarse con determinados estilos musicales, se señala uno ante los demás por su gusto musical y su forma de participar, del mismo modo en que lo hace a través de su forma de vestir, la calidad de su coche, o el lugar donde está su casa. Así que hacer música es una forma de mostrar cómo estamos juntos y cómo nos socializamos los humanos. La Musicología, a la que se presenta en este libro, ayuda a desvelar cómo sucede esto y por qué. Se trata de una disciplina diseñada para observar y estudiar académicamente la organización del sonido musical y las actividades a que da lugar. Ofrece oportunidades para introducirse en un mundo que puede ser hermoso para unos, erudito para otros, técnico para otros más, y, para todos... un terreno de encuentro con experiencias que, más allá del placer personal, implican también dedicación temporal, espacios específicos, e inversión económica. Representación social y producción cultural, en suma. En este libro presentamos la situación actual de los conocimientos y teorías sobre la música, con los debates que se están llevando a cabo en el momento presente: ¿qué podemos saber de la música si resulta que es un objeto que no tiene existencia material? ¿qué es lo que se transmite a través de ella? ¿existe otra música además de la de los grandes compositores o la que presentan las industrias culturales? ¿cómo se puede integrar la música de las culturas minoritarias en el universo sonoro de nuestros días? ¿cómo le afecta la globalización o la multiculturalidad? También ofrecemos una revisión general de carácter somero sobre los métodos de trabajo y los materiales con los que se enfrentan los musicólogos, historiadores, críticos, gestores, animadores culturales, museístas y documentalistas relacionados con este área de conocimiento, explicando cómo se llega desde la creación musical hasta el público, y los pasos intermedios que condicionan, mediatizan y determinan el resultado sonoro final. Este planteamiento nos parecía necesario en tanto que la presencia de la música está poco estudiada en nuestro país, a pesar incluso de las elevadas cifras de consumo que presenta. Pero el consumo musical, cuando se observa medido sólo por el número de equipos de reproducción por habitante o por la venta absoluta de fonogramas, no nos dice nada sobre qué clase de consumo es, a qué clase de experiencia musical se refiere, o qué necesidades satisface. La música es una realidad de la que apenas sabemos poco más que las cifras que mueve en el PNB. Muy abultadas, por cierto. Por eso, creímos adecuado realizar una introducción al estudio de la música como fenómeno de cultura, y, para ello, la vía más adecuada era presentar la situación actual y los métodos de trabajo de la Musicología, con sus teorías y explicac...
