A lecture on Phalesius, the music publisher and printer from the Southern Netherlands, by the musicologist Antonio Chemotti. The number of music publications that bear the name of the Antwerp printing house Phalesius, and the number of local and international composers who gained renown through these prints, is impressive.From 2016 to 2022, Antonio Chemotti worked as a post-doctoral researcher at the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. In 2020, he was awarded the Andrew W. Mellon Fellowship at Harvard University Center for Italian Renaissance Studies, which led to a period spent at the Villa I Tatti in Florence in 2020-2021. Chemotti has now joined the teams at the Alamire Foundation and KBR for the project ‘From Script to Sound’, which aims to make musical heritage from the Middle Ages and Renaissance accessible to the public and unlock its value by means of innovative, multi-disciplinary research.
Antonio Chemotti will speak in English.
