Abstract
Esta tesis doctoral busca llenar un hueco existente en la historiografía sobre la primera etapa del cine en España y el hecho musical relacionado con él, dentro del periodo que abarca entre la presentación del cinematógrafo en Madrid en 1896 hasta la llegada del cine sonoro a finales de los años veinte. Dicho periodo, que generalmente se ha denominado cine mudo y por extensión en el ámbito anglosajón con el término de silencioso, se caracterizó sin embargo por el desarrollo de una práctica musical destinada al acompañamiento de las proyecciones que se realizaban en los pabellones y barracones cinematográficos, teatros y primeras salas de cine. En España esta práctica, aun con ciertos elementos comunes a los de otros países, tuvo unas peculiaridades propias tanto por el propio desarrollo de la industria cinematográfica española, la concepción del espectáculo, los hábitos del público consumidor y, de forma preminente, por el ambiente sonoro del país en el desarrollo de su vida cultural y musical de principios de siglo XX, tanto de la denominada música culta como de la música popular...
This doctoral thesis seeks to fill an existing gap in the historiography on the first stage of cinema in Spain and the musical fact related to it, within the period between the presentation of the cinematograph in Madrid in 1896 and the arrival of sound films at the end of the 1920s. This period, which has generally been called silent cinema and by extension in the Anglo-Saxon sphere with the term "silent", was nevertheless characterized by the development of a musical practice aimed at accompanying the screenings that took place in the cinema pavilions and barracks, theatres and the first cinemas. In Spain this practice, even with certain elements in common with those of other countries, had its own peculiarities due to the development of the Spanish film industry, the conception of the spectacle, the habits of the consuming public and, above all, the country's sound environment in the development of its cultural and musical life at the beginning of the 20th century, both so-called cultured music and popular music.
