Starting from the notion of "heritage community" introduced by the Faro Convention, this thesis investigates the possibility that liturgical music may be considered intangible cultural heritage generated and renewed through communal practice, and as such deserving of enhancement and safeguarding.

Partendo dalla nozione di "comunità patrimoniale" introdotta dalla Convenzione di Faro, la presente tesi indaga la possibilità che la musica liturgica possa essere considerata patrimonio culturale immateriale generato e rinnovato nella prassi comunitaria ed in quanto tale, dunque, meritevole di essere valorizzato e salvaguardato. Il lavoro propone un percorso che va dall'inquadramento giuridico della Convenzione e della sua ratifica in Italia, all'analisi di pratiche musicali liturgiche locali, fino a una riflessione critica su come i soggetti coinvolti (fedeli, cori parrocchiali, istituzioni ecclesiastiche) possano essere riconosciuti quali attori fondamentali del processo di patrimonializzazione. Infine il lavoro mostra come tale patrimonio sia oggetto di una tutela informale dal basso che, alla luce del periodo storico attuale, risulta insufficiente e propone alcune piste per un suo riconoscimento più organico che coinvolga maggiormente le istituzioni.

Abstract
Starting from the notion of "heritage community" introduced by the Faro Convention, this thesis investigates the possibility that liturgical music may be considered intangible cultural heritage generated and renewed through communal practice, and as such deserving of enhancement and safeguarding. The work proposes a path that moves from the legal framing of the Convention and its ratification in Italy, to the analysis of local liturgical musical practices, to a critical reflection on how the actors involved (the faithful, parish choirs, ecclesiastical institutions) can be recognized as key agents in the “heritage upkeeping” process. Finally, the work shows how this heritage is subject to an informal, grassroots form of safeguarding that, in light of the current historical period, proves insufficient, and puts forward some possible directions for a more organic recognition of this heritage involving greater institutional engagement.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
