The CEMSP is organizing, from 26 to 27 June 2015, an International Colloquium at the National Palace of Queluz, dedicated to the Serenata and the Festa teatrale at the courts of Europe in the 18th century. Investigating the distinctive character and contexts of the Festa teatrale and the Serenata at a time when musical theatre was an integral part of the ceremonial of the court and was a privileged ritual of repraesentatio maiestatis, implies an approach to these works full of metaphors and symbolic allusions that takes into account the multiplicity of aspects that involve the context of celebration and the choice of themes, its textual and musical structure, the dramaturgical forms, the vocal and instrumental ensembles, and the various options with regard to the stage apparatus and performance practices. With this Colloquium, the CEMSP aims to encourage dialogue concerning the production and circulation of the Serenata, one of the principal musical genres performed at the Palace of Queluz during the 18th century, and to focus attention on the Portuguese contribution to the European musical circuit of the time.


The official languages of the conference are Portuguese, English and Italian.
