Este capítulo pretende iluminar acerca de cuáles serían los aspectos que, desde una perspectiva teórica, se tendrían que tener en cuenta en el momento de redefinir un género cinematográfico; en concreto, el presente trabajo se centra en el género musical con una especial atención al musical cinematográfico del estado español.

Resumen:

A finales de la década de los 00’, y mientras los programas musicales escasean en la televisión pública, aparece en antena Mapa Sonoro (2009-2011). Un espacio con estética de road movie dedicado a la música popular urbana menos comercial del panorama español.

El periodista musical Diego Manrique afirmaba en El País (2012): “Se esfumaron los programas sobre la actualidad del pop. Y cualquier otra música popular: hoy, resulta humillante recordar que en la televisión franquista hubo espacios semanales -¡con producción propia!- para el pop, el flamenco y el jazz” . Con una narrativa que rompe con lo establecido hasta entonces, Mapa Sonoro supone un último intento de TVE para llevar el periodismo musical a la televisión.

Los programas musicales previos a la llegada de internet poseen unas características narrativas comunes entre las que destacan el uso  del narrador intradiegético o el plató como espacio común para la puesta en escena. Algo que varía a partir de la segunda mitad de los años 00’, cuando TVE -gracias a programas como Mapa Sonoro- experimenta una tendencia hacia otro tipo de espacios musicales, influidos por los formatos cinematográficos.

Esta comunicación, por tanto, pretende analizar dicho programa como modelo o ejemplo de una tendencia narrativa cada vez más presente en TVE: la influencia del cine a la hora de abordar la información sobre la música popular.

“Si la galería Moriarty servía de lugar de reunión vespertino y la sala Rock-Ola concentraba el ambiente por las noches, La Edad de Oro era la cita semanal con las cámaras” decía César Estabiel en el diario El País . El programa de Paloma Chamorro -más que un espacio cultural o de entretenimiento- se convirtió en otro punto de encuentro para los artistas de aquellos años 80. Gracias a La Edad de Oro la Movida fue televisada y de la forma más real posible.

Esta comunicación propone un análisis narrativo del programa de TVE centrándose en dos elementos principales: la banda sonora (sobre todo la música pero también la palabra o el ruido) y la puesta en escena (estética, recursos narrativos…). Las actuaciones en directo, las entrevistas, la pose de los artistas invitados o la propia imagen de la presentadora y el público constituyen hoy en día una fotografía audiovisual indispensable para entender lo que estaba ocurriendo en el panorama cultural (y especialmente en el musical) a nivel estatal, pero sobre todo y en concreto en aquel Madrid de los 80.

Afirma Alaska en el libro La Revolución Pop (Ordovás, 2002: 56) : “Convertir el estudio 1 de TVE en Rock-Ola a las doce de la noche y en directo fue una odisea para Paloma, pero un regalo para quienes lo veíamos desde fuera”.

Abstract: The program Sputnik starts broadcasting on 1989, but nowadays its audiovisual narrative is completely different from its first days. In the beginning, Sputnik had elements like the presenter and the TV set. At the moment, the program broadcasts music documentaries, using a non-diegetic narrator and outdoor scenarios, showing a more realistic view of the artist.

Before the advent of the Internet, the television was the only one screen where music could be watched and listened at the same time. Especially trough YouTube and websites of music information as Pithfork.com, music videos and gigs have become products that everyone could get for free. In this way the TV set has stop of having the value it has on its first years (when TV was the only media where people could see the visual representation of music).

Sputnik has adapted to the exigencies of the new media scenario and it has adopted the music documentary as usual format, providing the program with an inedited character to compete with the Internet content. This paper analyze the changes on the narrative of Sputnik -from its beginning to the present days- conceiving that program as an adaptation model of the music programs to the digital era.

Popular music programs had their best age in the Spanish public television of the 80’s, with the explosion of new wave music. One of the most representative programs was La Edad de Oro (1983-1985), where the most important thing were the live concerts.

30 years later, Spanish public television broadcasts a program completely different from La Edad de Oro; it calls Mapa Sonoro and its narrative moves away from traditional music programs and takes lots of narrative elements from music documentary. The narrative of Mapa Sonoro shows how the music programs have changed during all this time, due to -and especially- the apparition of YouTube and the consolidation of the music videos as an audiovisual genre.

This paper proposes a comparative analysis of both programs on television (La Edad de Oro and Mapa Sonoro) as a reflex of the cultural and social transitions. Furthermore, this studio shows the evolution of the music performances in television and assesses the importance of the influence of modern technology.

En 1983 aparece en televisión La Edad de Oro, un programa dedicado a la música y al arte de vanguardia de la época. Su formato (entrevistas de cierto nivel cultural, debates sobre el arte europeo, actuaciones en directo…) dejaba patente, por un lado, el período de transición política, cultural y social que atravesaba España y, por otro, la influencia que ejercían otros medios como la prensa y la radio sobre los espacios musicales en televisión.

En 2011, Mapa Sonoro -uno de los últimos espacios dedicados a la música en TVE- abordaba los sonidos más “indies” desde un formato con estética de “road movie”; en 2012 este mismo programa volvía con una puesta en escena más cercana al documental. Tomando estos dos espacios como referencia (La Edad de Oro y Mapa Sonoro), podemos decir que los programas musicales de TVE reflejan los cambios históricos, sociales y culturales no sólo desde la imagen y la estética sino también desde el formato y la narrativa de dichos espacios. Si en los primeros años de televisión, se dejaban influir por la prensa y la radio, ahora lo hacen por el cine o (de manera más indirecta) por las nuevas tecnologías. Esta comunicación reflexiona sobre cómo han sido las transiciones en el formato de los programas musicales de TVE y sobre algunos elementos que han podido influir en estos cambios (tales como la aparición del videoclip o YouTube).

Abstract: Currently the specialization on music journalism is not conceived like something is fitting of television. However there was a time when television and music journalism worked together. And that happened before Operación Triunfo, the big brother syndrome and the obsession with the spectacularity settled into our television.

In the 80’s, artist as Lou Reed, Nick Cave, Mariscal o La Fura dels Baus had some space in the Spanish public television. These contents were far away from the most commercial art and it could even surprise the present audience (who is used to watching reality-shows during all day).

The object of this paper is to analyze the changing which has been in that sense. Therefore, we put the attention in two main points: the image of the music programs in television (especially in the Spanish and Catalan public televisions) and the impact of these programs in the Public Opinion.
Finally, this work reflect on the present situation of the music programs in television and also its spreading work and the possible future of the music journalism in this mass media.

Abstract: When television was invented, it seemed to be the ideal media for music broadcasting. And while Spanish public television did not have rivals, it was the ideal media. Owning to the birth of programs as Popgrama, La Edad de Oro or Musical Express, there was a time when the music journalist could exist on television. When the private channels appear, the music information disappears and the entertainment started to be the most important thing of television contents. Nowadays, the vast number of music videos available on the internet has caused the production of a TV music program -as it used to be (with a presenter, a TV set and artists performances)- has disappeared. At the present, in reference to the music programs, TVE has a distressing situation. Now that Mapa Sonoro and Ritmo Urbano (the last try of TVE to offer this kind of programs) have ended their broadcast, this paper draws an historical line to reflect how music television programs have changed from the 60’s to 2012, a year in which Spanish public television has promote the music documentary as a journalist genre.

En 2005, la aparición de YouTube (que sería adquirido por Google en 2006), empuja a la televisión musical tradicional a reinventarse. Con YouTube, los programas musicales dejan de tener el valor único que poseían en los 80 y los 90; cualquier videoclip o concierto está en la red y puede verse de manera gratuita, a cualquier hora y desde cualquier parte del mundo. “YouTube no es solamente un sitio web, o incluso una tecnología, sino más bien un campo completo de práctica cultural” .

Los espacios de música popular urbana de la década de los 00’ se caracterizan por poseer una narrativa muy distinta a la que presentaban los programas emitidos en décadas anteriores. Es en esta etapa (marcada por la convergencia mediática) cuando, por un lado, aumentan los programas musicales de formato documental  y, por otro, se abusa del talent-show.

La lucha por el share entre cadenas sumada a la llegada de plataformas audiovisuales como YouTube, ha provocado en la televisión pública una búsqueda de nuevas narrativas para atraer a la audiencia. Esta comunicación propone un análisis narrativo de los programas musicales de la última década, centrándose sobre todo, en aquellos de perfil más periodístico.

Abstract: Since Television was born, it has played a crucial role for transferring the popular music from one country to another. Also, television had (on that period) a new and essential job:  transferring the image which accompanied the music. In the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s Spanish young people was not able to go abroad for discovering the new music and the new sounds of England or EE.UU, but television had a shooting effect on that people who wants to see their favorite artists. In La Música Contada Conferences, in 2002 (celebrated in Granada, Spain), the guitarist of the punk Spanish band TNT -Jesús Arias- talked about Popgrama, one of the first television programs which has international music on it: ‹‹I could -through it [Popgrama]- listen The Rolling Stones and also see them. And I say “see” them because until that moment I just could have seen them on pictures, and sometimes with censorship››.

Not always television could beat the censorship. The intention of Paloma Chamorro to show -in her program La Edad de Oro- the most avant-garde music shocked the public opinion. When the English band Psychic TV appear in La Edad de Oro, Spain was not ready for such kind of alternative music and the public opinion were absolutely outraged about it.

Things that were –in terms of music- usual in England, in Spain caused an excessive commotion. And television was on that point: cutting down the distance and break the barriers and put an end to the music and cultural prejudices that Spain had as a identity sign. The object of this paper is to reflect the job of Spanish public television as a globalization tool on a period previous to MTV and YouTube.

Abstract: It is really rare to find an interview between a journalist and a new music band on the Spanish current television. Zapping from channel to channel, it’s easier to find a gig or a show with really famous artists doing some playback or even a reality-show with anonymous people singing. However, nowadays there are some examples of music programs with journalism nature. And the programs which survive have quite different narrative elements and different staging. These shows also have a different treatment of the soundtrack and all these things reflect that the narrative in television music programs has changed.

Theatre, Musical and Opera have its stage located at beautiful buildings, nice and majestic architectonic pieces. And the public need to go to its sites if they want to see some specific music performance. They go, they pay, they take a sit, they enjoy. But there is another stage which spectators can see staying at home, for free: TV’s stage.

This paper talks about the music performance in television, specifically in the stage of popular music TV shows. Therefore, this work analyzes the evolution of these performances on the public Spanish television (TVE and La 2): videos, provocation, genre roles, esthetic, social context...

The stage as a narrative element of the music TV shows has been changing over the years. MTV, YouTube, Operación Triunfo and Big Brother phenomenon are some of the factors which have influenced in the evolution of the use and the meaning of this stage.

This book deepens the understanding of the work carried out by professional women in Spanish film and television since the arrival of democracy, a period of radical changes that saw an emergence of female talent. Although most of the literature on women and media deals with female film directors, this book also addresses television, a medium where the presence of women was significant throughout this period. This book makes an important contribution to the study of the history of women in Spanish media, focusing on the work of some well-known names, while also rescuing from oblivion others now forgotten. It brings together scholars from Spain, the United States and Ireland to analyze films and television programs written or directed by female professionals such as Pilar Miró, Josefina Molina, Cecilia Bartolomé, Rosa Montero, Carmen Martín Gaite, Cristina Andreu, Isabel Coixet and Paloma Chamorro. The book also includes four interviews with screenwriter Esmeralda Adam, television executive Carmen Caffarel, filmmaker Ana Díez and television director Matilde Fernández. Their reflections on personal and professional experiences shed light on the changes that took place in Spanish society during this period and the challenges they have faced in their careers.
