Icons of Sound: Voice, Architecture, and Imagination in Medieval
Art brings together art history and sound studies to offer new
perspectives on medieval churches and cathedrals as spaces where
the perception of the visual is inherently shaped by sound. The
chapters encompass a wide geographic and historical range, from the
fifth to the fifteenth century, and from Armenia and Byzantium to
Venice, Rome, and Santiago de Compostela. Contributors offer
nuanced explorations of the intangible sonic aura produced in these
places by the ritual music and harness the use of digital
technology to reconstruct historical aural environments. Rooted in
a decade-long interdisciplinary research project at Stanford
University, Icons of Sound expands our understanding of the
inherently intertwined relationship between medieval chant and
liturgy, the acoustics of architectural spaces, and their visual
aesthetics. Together, the contributors provide insights that are
relevant across art history, sound studies, musicology, and
medieval studies.
