On 19 July 2021 John and I met at Curtin University on the unceded lands of the Noongar people to discuss his passage from cultural studies to cultural science. For a short time I was the caretaker Editor-in-Chief and so it seemed appropriate that John and I have the conversation to mark the transition of the journal to a new home and team following the long editorship by John while Cultural Science resided in the Centre for Culture and Technolog…
Musicians’ Mobilities and Music Migrations in Early Modern Europe
At a time when the future mobility of Europe-based professional musicians—including those working in the classical music industry—is increasingly uncertain (or, at the very least, potentially threatened by untenable bureaucratic hurdles) in the wake of the Brexit decision, it seems worth dwelling on the opening thoughts of this edited collection’s preface. There, the volume’s editors, Gesa zur Nieden and Berthold Over, note that the ‘musical migr…
Italian-American conversations on the mafia
In 1961 the peace activist and anti-mafia campaigner Danilo Dolci spoke at a protest event at the Italian centennial of unification celebrations hosted by the City of Philadelphia. The reactions to the talk he gave on development initiatives in Western Sicily provide some insight into the transnational discussion that was developing around the mafia, governance and leadership in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Dolci and his supporters made the su…
The Above Mentioned Aliens’
In early August 1914—within a fortnight of the outbreak of World War I—Auckland police arrested twenty-four German nationals and sent them for internment in Wellington. Strikingly, twelve of these so-called ‘enemy aliens’ comprised a German band led by Rudolf Mersy (1867–1949), a composer renowned in his homeland as the ‘Aschbacher Mozart’. Drawing upon previously restricted files held at Archives New Zealand (Wellington), this article uncovers t…

Robert Dalley-Scarlett (1887–1959) and Handel Reception in Australia between the World Wars
In December 1949, the Brisbane-based musician Robert Dalley-Scarlett received a prestigious Handel Medal from the town of Halle (Germany) for his work promoting the composer's oeuvre. This paper investigates Dalley-Scarlett's pioneering role in the period between the two World Wars, during which time he was not only a key figure in the Brisbane Handel Festivals of 1933 and 1934—among the earliest in the southern hemisphere—but was also active as …
Continuing National History
In 1961 the Italian nation‐state celebrated one hundred years of unification with an official celebration held in the northern capital of Turin. Named Italia‘61 , the purpose of the event was to display what comprised and composed a united Italy in 1961 and to showcase what was bringing about a post‐war Italian “ renascence ”. However, the 1961 celebration could not deliver the new beginning hoped for, as in the tradition of previous celebrations…
Aesthetics and Experience in Music Performance
Drawing upon a wide range of scholarly enquiry into early music, queer musicology, ethnomusicology, performance practice, music education and technology, Aesthetics and Experience in Music Performance provides a lively forum for the articulation of varied perspectives on the role of music, its interpretation and function in contexts supported by those who practice or experience it. The formal and shorter discussion papers included in this scholar…
