Programme

The course addresses the relationship between music and image by offering an overview of some fundamental aspects of musical iconography and the characteristics that this relationship assumes in audiovisual context, considering, both historically and analytically, film music. An investigation path will be outlined that goes from one side to the other, following the topic of the musician's image, as it is reflected, constructed, staged through the resources of the graphic and pictorial arts, then through those of audiovisual narration, from the portrait of the musician of the 17th-18th centuries to the musical biographical film.
