GUILLAMON, Guillermina. Taste and good taste in the musical culture of Buenos Aires (1820-1828). Prismas [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.1, pp.33-51. ISSN 1852-0499.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the configuration process of musical culture in Buenos Aires during the period 1820-1828. This involves inquiring about the convergences and separations of musical culture in relation to the political program of rivadavianismo as well as the influence of the enlightenment and experience of lyric program during that period. To understand this process, the work is organized into two sections. In the first, we analyze the process of transformation of the musical taste and the consolidation of the operatic genre. In a second instance, we inquire therelationship between propaganda, music criticism and discourse configuration of a normative standard of taste. The approach we propose in this paper discusses the idea that historiography as musicology constructed of musical activities: leisure practices or composition and performance are reduced to written music. Rather, it seeks to show that the Buenos Aires musical culture was a complex artistic sphere in which converged different aesthetic and political interests.

Palabras clave : Musical culture - Taste - Good taste - Opera - Buenos Aires.
