The group was founded by the composer Constança Capdeville in 1985 with the aim of performing her music and theatre works and as a pioneering project in Portugal. Interviewed by Filipa Magalhães on two occasions (in 2018 and 2023), Erlich Oliva details the first steps of the group’s actions, discusses the ongoing collaborative work among members of ColecViva, and addresses the ‘pedagogy of deconditioning’ concept that he forged. In the 1980s, Capdeville guided stimulating study programs at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in which Erlich Oliva, as a lecturer, defined the contents within the scope of non-conventional procedures for obtaining sound from the double bass. Capdeville dedicated the music theatre work Amen para uma ausência (1986) for a solo double bass to him. At the composer’s request and in close collaboration with her, Erlich Oliva created the graphic score with specific writing notes for the double bass. This last interview attempts to shed light on his perceptions as a performer.KEYWORDS: Constança CapdevillePortuguese music theatreColecVivaAlejandro Erlich Olivadouble bassperformance AcknowledgmentsDecades later, it appears that the inaugural gesture of Constança Capdeville and ColecViva did not follow through. Only recently did some interest in the subject start to emerge among younger generations. I would like to thank Alejandro Erlich Oliva and all the people I have interviewed over the years who have helped me in this crusade of disseminating Constança Capdeville’s music.Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 A music theatre group founded in 1985 by Constança Capdeville in order to perform her works written in the context of this performative genre.2 Source: https://musicamera.pt/en/alejandroerlicholiva/.3 This interview is part of the doctoral research carried out by Filipa Magalhães.

She composed, led, and acted as a performer in her own creations. Capdeville’s music theatre incorporates various artistic expressions such as dance, theatre, and cinema, resorting to different elements such as music, recorded sounds on tape, light, image, text, and movement, all structured as heterogeneous counterpoints. ColecViva’s activity also included seminars with discussions on aspects of performance and the group members shared their experiences with participants as an educational project. Although its activity has now ceased, ColecViva remains the only music theatre group to have existed in Portugal, with a lasting impact on those who were part of the group. It was also unique in the context of contemporary Portuguese music, as it sought to interpret a less widespread repertoire within a classical production style, revealing a connection with avant-garde aesthetics. This article aims to discuss ColecViva’s collaborative methods through an exploration of its educational activities, which influenced successive generations of performers who are now significant composers, performers (musicians, dancers, and actors), choreographers, directors, and musicologists.","PeriodicalId":44746,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Music Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41632835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lack of systematic information makes it necessary for those who have worked with her to bequeath a living testimony of her work, whose conceptual approach represents an enrichment of the Portuguese musical panorama. ‘Ce désert est faux’—Constança Capdeville in memoriam (2012) is a music theatre performance based entirely on Capdeville’s music theatre works, proposing a stage production enacted in her spirit. In fact, from the choice of works and excerpts to be included in the performance to their distribution and staging, the main objective guiding this project aims to establish a context that would allow for Capdeville’s music theatre works to be experienced just as they were conceived. The strategies respecting Capdeville’s typical procedures are also discussed in this study.","PeriodicalId":44746,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Music Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48296048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
