Early Recordings: the Impacts of a Transformative Technology
Conference at The Royal College of Music, London UK, on Thursday 23 April 2020.
The aim of this one-day conference is to focus on the wider cultural and social impact
of the technological development and dissemination of early recordings.
The investigation of early recordings has been a booming field in recent decades. Since the ground-breaking study of Robert Philip in 1992, the shift of interest in musicology from products to processes has progressively broadened the subject’s scope. Early recordings have been co-opted as new ‘texts’ for a variety of purposes, including studies in reception, sociology, cultural and media theory, and the history of technology (Cook, Clarke, Leech-Wilkinson and Rink, 2004).
