Art of Noises
The Art of Noises (1912) by Luigi Russolo, which proposed to the musical establishment the introduction of machines for the production of noises in the development of musical pieces, in a time when the only conceived sound was the traditional tonal sounds from the instrument. So the Art of Noises becomes a Famous manifesto. Russolo’s manifesto was not a sudden influx of noise into Western music—the birth cry of musical modernity—but an intervention in a struggle as old as music itself. What Russolo attacked as the meagerness of the auditory sensorium at the dawn of the twentieth century was in fact the product of a protracted normalization of music enforced by the coordinated disciplines of aesthetics, instrumental technology, and music theory. The same process that tamed sound and enabled the stunning compositional constructions of European art music also drastically narrowed our ears’ perceptual bandwidth, and made us deaf to the world beyond the confines of concert music and its domesticated, well-behaved, “indoor instruments.” For a century now we have been learning how to hear anew. Russolo did not discover noise, but helped us to recover it.
