DESCRIPTION:The Department of Music Research presents:\n	\n	Tim Shephard\, Pr
 ofessor in Musicology\, University of Sheffield\, England\n	'Sounding the B
 ookshelf 1501: Music in a Year of Italian Printed Books'\n\n\nDescription
 \n\nThe project “Sounding the Bookshelf 1501\,” funded by the Leverhulme T
 rust and hosted at the University of Sheffield\, UK\, asks a simple questi
 on: standing in a Venetian bookshop towards the end of the year 1501\, wha
 t information about music might you encounter as you browse the new printe
 d titles available for purchase? Very few of the books printed in Italy in
  1501 were “about” music\, but almost all of them mention music in passing
 \, and sometimes at length\, whilst discussing something else. These kinds
  of casual\, fragmentary comments on music were surely read by many more p
 eople than specialist music theory\, the audience for which was probably v
 ery small. To recover these comments and characterise the contradictory an
 d incoherent field of everyday musical knowledge they comprise\, our proje
 ct team are reading every book printed in Italy in 1501 cover-to-cover\, e
 xcerpting every passage mentioning music\, sound or hearing. With our work
  now roughly 60% complete\, the big picture is beginning to emerge\, and i
 n this presentation I will attempt (for the first time!) to summarise what
  we’ve found.\n\n\n \n
