This article discusses a hitherto-unknown printed edition of Bach's Schübler Chorales edited by Mendelssohn, and considers its meaning and significance for Bach-Mendelssohn scholarship. Facsimile of the edition is also included.

Prospección del recurso Caracol (Thais Chocolata) en el litoral de Moquegua y Tacna. Julio 1997

Presenta los resultados de la evaluación de los bancos naturales del recurso caracol (Thais chocolata) situados en Cocotea y Llostay (departamentos de Moquegua y Tacna), encontrándose que el recurso tiene como hábitat preferente las comunidades de Aulacomya ater (chorales) y Pyura chilensis (cochizales). En relación a los resultados obtenidos durante la prospección de 1996, se afirma que el recurso sigue sometido a la sobreexplotación por lo que se sugiere adoptar medidas regulativas para no causar un colapso pesquero.

Messe solennelle pour la famille Lebel ; suivi de L'évolution du procédé polyphonique chez Suzanne Jacob

Mon essai et mon roman se font l’écho l’un de l’autre, ils se répondent et reflètent ainsi le sujet de ma recherche : la polyphonie. Dans L’évolution du procédé polyphonique chez Suzanne Jacob, je m’attarde à trois romans de Suzanne Jacob, L’obéissance, Rouge, mère et fils et Fugueuses, œuvres chorales et teintées par la musique dans lesquelles la prose se décline en plusieurs voix. Puisque j’étudie la polyphonie dans son aspect musical et, parallèlement, dans une perspective littéraire, il est possible d’admettre que je fais moi aussi, au cœur de mon essai, l’exercice du contrepoint. Cet essai est précédé par Messe solennelle pour la famille Lebel, roman polyphonique qui, à la manière de Fugueuses, où la musique est déjà implicite dans le titre, se donne à lire comme une partition musicale. J’y présente quatre membres d’une même famille, deux hommes et deux femmes, qui doivent faire face à la mort de l’un des leurs. Ils se partagent une narration en contrepoint dans un récit à plusieurs voix (inspirées par les quatre catégories vocales principales en musique) dont la structure rappelle celle du requiem ou messe des morts.

Processing of hierarchical syntactic strusture in music

Hierarchical structure with nested nonlocal dependencies is a key feature of human language and can be identified theoretically in most pieces of tonal music. However, previous studies have argued against the perception of such structures in music. Here, we show processing of nonlocal dependencies in music. We presented chorales by J. S. Bach and modified versions inwhich the hierarchical structure was rendered irregular whereas the local structure was kept intact. Brain electric responses differed between regular and irregular hierarchical structures, in both musicians and nonmusicians. This finding indicates that, when listening to music, humans apply cognitive processes that are capable of dealing with longdistance dependencies resulting from hierarchically organized syntactic structures. Our results reveal that a brain mechanism fundamental for syntactic processing is engaged during the perception of music, indicating that processing of hierarchical structure with nested nonlocal dependencies is not just a key component of human language, but a multidomain capacity of human cognition.
