Academic literature on the topic 'Piano cottura'

Abstract In 1912, Schenker began to reconceptualize four works already published, in press, or in preparation as a series parallel to his Neue musikalische Theorien und Phantasien, under the collective title Erläuterungsausgaben (elucidatory editions): his editions of C. P. E. Bach keyboard works with companion brochure, Ein Beitrag zur Ornamentik (1903; 2nd ed. 1908); J. S. Bach's Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue (1910); Beethoven's last five piano sonatas (1913–20); and his monograph on Beethoven's Ninth Symphony (1912). A close reading of the texts associated with the first two of these brings out the characteristics of Schenker's newly forged mode of musical discourse and helps us understand why Schenker prized it so highly. Inspection of Schenker's correspondence with J. G. Cotta and Universal Edition (also the latter's publication records and catalogues) and his diary makes possible a detailed history of the works concerned and of his unsuccessful attempt to establish the second series; it also reveals the central role he envisioned for himself in the future of Universal Edition and casts light on his complex interactions with Emil Hertzka, on relationships with his private patrons, and on his sense of exclusion from Viennese musical circles.

Background. In 19th century European music has been enriched by national phenomena, such as Polish mazurka, Austrian waltz, Hungarian czardas, which went into the academic genres system, expanded the boundaries of its intonational fund and audience perceptions. The Neapolitan song participated in this process. It was a real discovery for music lovers in different countries. Canzone Napoletana conquered the music salons area in France, from where it spread in all the Europe, and was reflected in the work of many composers. This genre phenomenon is not fully unraveled, probably due to the distortion of the ingrained ideas about it. This theme is mainly reflected in the publications of Italian experts in the second half of the 20 century D. Carpitella, E. De Martino, R. De Simone, and in the 21 century R. Di Mauro (2013). Interest in this genre intensified in the musical science of China also. This is due to the extraordinary melody of Neapolitan songs, which is consonant with Chinese samples. Chinese singers increasingly include the popular canzone Napoletana in their repertoire. In the musical science of China, this topic has been developed since the last decades of the 20th century in the studies of Song Jing (1985), Wu Shikai (1997), Pei Yisi (2011), Liu Shanshan (2007), Fang Yahong (2011), Chang Jinge (2018). However, many scientific works are of the same type, which is caused by the lack of direct access to the study of musical, poetic, bibliographic material. In the same time, the 19th century deserves attention as a period of the rapid spread of Neapolitan folk songs in the musical art of Europe. The outstanding role in these processes belongs to the representatives of the creative dynasty – Teodoro Cottrau (1827–1879), the author of the famous “Santa Lucia”, and his father Guillaume-Louis Cottrau (1797–1847). Given the current lack of knowledge on this topic, as the research goal of this article, we consider it necessary to get acquainted with the creative figure of G.-L. Cottrau, which contributed to the spread of Neapolitan folk songs in the European music of the 19th century. For the first time in the musical science of Ukraine and China, the collection of Neapolitan songs “Passatempi musicali” / “Musical entertainments” is used as an object of research compiled by G.-L. Cottrau, as well as selected fragments of operatic works by G. Paisiello and D. Cimarosa. In this work, the historicalcomparative and biographical research methods are used, as well as generally accepted models of musicological and performing analysis of music. Results. When studying the Canzone Napoletana, the research problem lies in the difficulties of reconstructing song samples of the 16th–19th centuries. It is necessary to restore their exact chronology, authorship, conduct a comparative analysis of numerous editions, and comprehend the processes of historical evolution. This situation is known to most ethnological scholars, who are actually engaged in musical archeology and bring back almost lost samples of the past from oblivion. Thanks to the processes of national self-determination that swept Italy in the second half of the 20th century, a decisive breakthrough was made in ethnomusicology in the study of the musical and poetic heritage of the Neapolitan region. This is a strong help for any researcher dealing with this topic. The composer and music publisher Guillaume-Louis Cottrau belonged to a famous surname in France. Hisfather served Joachim-Napoléon Murat, Napoleon Bonaparte’s son-in-law. As a child, he ended up in Italy, in Naples, forever falling in love with this land and its culture. Subsequently, Guillaume-Louis adopted Neapolitan citizenship. Being engaged in the affairs of the music publishing house and composing, Guillaume-Louis made up and published in 1824 a collection of Neapolitan songs “Passatempi musicali” / “Musical entertainments”. This includes 104 Canzone Napoletana. Afterwards, the number of songs in different issues was increasing slightly (up to 113), the authorship of some fragments was clarifying, but the main block of tunes remained unchanged. This collection gained immense popularity in the music salons of France. It has been reprinted several times. According to R. di Mauro (2013), about sixty of the 104 songs in the first edition were written by G.-L. Cottrau, the rest are the result of processing of folk originals or songs by other authors. The essence of the undertaken arrangement consisted not only in recording musical and poetic texts (often in several versions), not only in creating a piano accompaniment part in the style of salon music-making. The composer personally collected these cantos and lyrics to them, communicating with servants, peasants, merchants, artisans, direct bearers of the oral musical tradition from different parts of the Neapolitan region. It includes old peasant songs, epic ballads, fragments from operas by G. Paisiello, D. Cimarosa, and other composers of the 18th century, which became truly people’s. This article compares the composer and folk versions of the Serenade of Pulcinella by Paisiello and Cimarosa, which were included in the first edition of the collection under the folk guise. Conclusions. The publication of the Neapolitan songs collection “Passatempi musicali” by G.-L. Cottrau played the role of actualizing this song genre in the musical space of the Romantic era. Its popularization outside Italy, repeated reprints made it possible to “legalize” the song South Italian folklore in the European musical space.

Abstract Background: The double blind randomized UNIRAD trial (NCT01805271) showed no evidence that adding Everolimus (EVE) to adjuvant endocrine therapy (EHT) for high-risk early breast cancer (BC) improved 3-year disease-free survival (iDFS) compared with EHT alone. In this trial, high risk was defined by any T and either ≥4N+, or ≥1N+ after neoadjuvant treatment, or ≥1N+ and EPclin high risk (EPCH) score ≥3.3. This sub analysis is aimed to verify prognostic added value of EndoPredict test results on outcomes in patients screened for the UNIRAD study.. Material and methods: From May 2015 to March 2020, 777 patients were screened with the EndoPredict test. Complete results were obtained for 767 of them. 662 pts were classified as EPCH and 429 were randomized in UNIRAD. 233 pts with EPCH and 105 pts with EPclin low risk (EPCL) were not randomized but followed up for iDFS. Statistical analysis: Kaplan-Meier estimates the association of the integrated molecular-clinico-pathologic EPclin score, and the 12-gene molecular EP score, with iDFS (primary endpoint) and dMFS (secondary endpoint). Independent prognostic added value of EPclin score was tested in a multivariate Cox model after adjusting on tumor characteristics (Grade and T, N). A two-sided p-value less than 0.05 considered as statistically significant, 95% confidence intervals reported with HR. Results: Median follow-up of the cohort was 36.6 mo (0-69) since EndoPredict test. As for the whole population, there was no significant difference in iDFS between treatment arms in the randomized EPCH group. On the other hand, EPclin was an independent prognostic factor for iDFS. 36 mo relapse rate from testing for patients in the EPCL group and the EPCH group was 0% and 7%, respectively (HR supposing continuous EPclin score: 2.36, 95%CI: 1.7-3.3, p < .0001). This difference remained significant when assessed in a cox model with tumor size, number of positive nodes and tumor grade (HR: 1.96, 95%CI: 1.32-2.9, p=0.0008). Furthermore, EPclin results was independently correlated to distant metastatic free survival: 36 mo dMFS for patient in the EPCL and EPCH group was 100% and 94%, respectively (adjusted HR: 2.13, 95%CI:11.3-3.4, p = .0014). Of interest when assessing prognostic of patients within quartiles of EPclin Score (<3.6; 3.6-4.1; ≥4.1-4.8; ≥ 4.8), 36 mo iDFS was 99%; 95%; 94% and 86%, respectively. Conclusion: These prospective results confirm the significance of EPclin score as an independent prognostic parameter in node positive ER+/HER2- eBC patients receiving standard adjuvant treatment. This information can be of importance for selection of specific adjuvant intervention, particularly chemotherapy and new targeted therapy. Further analysis on the EP score will be presented at the meeting.

Ho iniziato lo svolgimento del mio tirocinio presso lo stabilimento di Forlì di Electrolux nel mese di ottobre 2019. Sin dal giorno in cui mi è stata fatta la proposta di stage nell’ambito della logistica interna dello stabilimento, nutrivo curiosità e voglia di scoprire le tecniche e le pratiche lavorative utilizzate quotidianamente in una grande realtà globale come Electrolux. Il mio interesse precedente per la Logistica ha aiutato il mio inserimento in un team con una mentalità proattiva e volta al cambiamento continuo e migliorativo. In particolare, il progetto iniziale nelle intenzioni del management riguardava lo sviluppo dei flussi da e verso una nuova pressa per lo stampaggio di componenti in lamiera, situata in un’area facente parte dello stabilimento fino a prima ma utilizzata come semplice “zona di deposito provvisorio”: questo ha comportato la necessità di un cambiamento nel modo di pensare e vedere questo spazio da parte di tutte le funzioni aziendali. Una volta iniziata la raccolta dati ci siamo domandati, dato lo stato già avanzato dei progetti riguardanti la nuova pressa, se potesse essere interessante considerare lo stabilimento con uno sguardo da più dall’alto e mettere in discussione l’attuale stato dei flussi interni del materiale con lo scopo di scovare perdite e proporre ambiti di miglioramento. Abbiamo così deciso di dare inizio alla revisione del carico di lavoro dei trenisti che sono presenti all’interno dello stabilimento per quanto riguarda ogni tipologia di componente trasportato verso le linee di produzione.

L’obiettivo principale del lavoro svolto riguarda lo sviluppo di un prodotto sicuro, efficiente e commercializzabile per la combustione di Idrogeno per la cottura di cibo in ambito domestico. Il raggiungimento di tale obiettivo ha reso necessario lo studio di una vasta gamma di problematiche concernenti gli aspetti strettamente tecnici, affrontati secondo un approccio che tenesse in considerazione anche la minimizzazione del costo del prodotto finale. E' stato condotto un esteso studio teorico relativo alle caratteristiche dell’Idrogeno e alle sue proprietà come combustibile, nonché agli effetti dell’interazione che tale gas può avere con diversi tipi di materiali utilizzabili per la realizzazione del prodotto finale. La definizione delle caratteristiche di progetto del piano cottura e del bruciatore in esso integrato, si è concretizzata considerando parallelamente tutti i requisiti normativi riconosciuti come necessari ed applicabili alla tecnologia in oggetto. I test dei prototipi e le simulazioni computazionali del comportamento del bruciatore sono stati parte integrante del processo di sviluppo del dispositivo.
