Sonic Architecture: Electroacoustic Innovations and Spatial Design in Trovato per Errore
Authors: Axelle Bruyne
Categories: Journal
Abstract - This study explores the integration of electroacoustic technologies, spatialized soundscapes, and real-time sound processing in Trovato per Errore, an opera by Giuseppe de Benedittis and Jacopo Caneva. Through an interdisciplinary approach combining musicology, sound design, and performance analysis, the research investigates how acoustic instruments, and live electronics, interact to shape the opera's dramaturgical, spatial, and emotional dimensions.
It examines the role of advanced sound technologies, including spatial diffusion and dynamic sound manipulation, in transforming traditional operatic structures. By analysing the interplay between live performers, electronic systems, and spatial design, this research highlights how these elements contribute to an immersive and fluid performance environment.
Ultimately, the article demonstrates how Trovato per Errore transcends traditional operatic conventions, merging acoustic and electronic elements into a cohesive narrative and sonic architecture. This work contributes to broader discussions on the role of technology in contemporary opera, offering insights into how sound can function as both a dramaturgical tool and an emotional catalyst in modern performance art.
