European music of the XIX century is marked by very strong and contrasting esthetic currents. Its representatives struggled to validate the current they joined and their confrontations where not without belligerency. The advent of criticism, subjectivity, the contrast between demand and the public’s taste with regard to works and creators marked a contradiction which affected musical production and the lives of artists. This course will study the musical repertoires of the nineteenth century from the viewpoint of their creators, esthetic thought and its relations with other expressions, especially with literature.

This course offers a survey of the most relevant proposals and languages in regard to the development of experimental and electrophonic music from the start of the XXth century to the first years of the XXIst. New forms of sound expression are produced as a response to the questions posed by creators against all the traditional components which constitute a musical act. From this perspective, all music should be subject to constant experimentation, proposing new codes and elements of appreciation and visualization of musical / extra-musical space-time and structure starting from what is known. Course contents present the principles developed from electrophonic and experimental music. These are applied both to specifically sound-based works as well as to a variety of forms of expression mainly in performing and visual arts which are included in the repertoire to be studied.

This course will improve the use and function of the body in terms of posture and activities. We talk about use and function, sensory appreciation, primary control, inhibition, orders, and global and partial movement. The student will develop conscious self-control that will improve the quality of body use applied to movement, voice, and breathing. It will restore the reliability of sensory appreciation to be able to evaluate the results of a conscious control process. The Alexander Technique teaches that in the human being there is a "primary control" that control the body’s energy and actions through the head and spinal column. Thus it is effectively a control mechanism for posture and movement. Considering that contemporary sedentary life leads to a deterioration in postural energy, the Alexander Technique procures, through a conscious procedure of self-observation, inhibition, and orders, to recover primary control as the basis for body use.
