Description

Zoom in on Masters is a new project created by the Intercultural Institute of Comparative Musical Studies (IISMC) and focused on “masters” of important musical and dance traditions, who had been due to perform on the island of San Giorgio. In a virtual space, they will converse on music topics of common interest and describe their own activities as well as some IISMC projects which, because of the international coronavirus health emergency, have inevitably been suspended but will resume as soon as possible. Zoom in on Masters is a great opportunity to reflect on the peculiar conditions that musicians and dancers are experiencing, especially those working on projects involving intercultural exchanges and interactions, at this time of lockdowns and social distancing.
Coordinated by Simone Tarsitani (Durham University), a series of three meetings will enhance the broad range of previously uploaded IISMC audiovisual documents, which now enjoy a large following on the Fondazione Giorgio Cini YouTube channel.

In this first conversation, Kudsi Erguner, director of the long-standing Birun project devoted to Ottoman classical music, talks to Giovanni De Zorzi (Ca’ Foscari University of Venice) and some musicians who participated in previous Birun workshops as scholarship holders. They will reflect on the overall value of the project and its benefits for training and research. They will also introduce the theme of the next seminar: the instrumental compositions of Prince Dimitri Cantemir (1673-1723).
