In his forthcoming book, Roberto Poli presents original discoveries
that have generated ground-breaking insights based on years of
research and performance: long-standing interpretations of commonly
encountered musical signs and symbols, from as early as the 1770s,
may fail to reveal the composers' intended meanings. These
misconstrued readings are due precisely to traditions themselves -
traditions that have rested largely upon received knowledge rather
than historical accuracy. Restoring the original connotation of
signs and symbols in the scores can bring us closer to practices
that have not gained access to our vocabulary because of decades of
misinformed playing and fallacious scholarship. By bringing us
closer to intended practices, the restoration of these meanings can
give us greater interpretive insight and freedom.
