OccupationMusicologist

Makis Solomos (born 1962) is a Franco-Greek musicologist who specializes in contemporary music, particularly the work of Iannis Xenakis and Theodor W. Adorno. His work focuses on the issue of sound ecology and decay. He has published articles and books and participates in meetings and symposia. In 2005, he participated in the creation of the magazine "Filigranes," which aimed to broaden the field of musicology.

Biography

Solomos has lived in Paris since 1980. He studied musical composition with Yoshihisa Taira and Sergio Ortega. Later, he studied musicology at the Paris-Sorbonne University. He taught at the Paul Valéry University Montpellier III until 2010. He is a professor at the Paris 8 University Vincennes-Saint-Denis and a junior member of the Institut Universitaire de France.[1]

Research areas

In his writings, Solomos attempts to combine analytical, historical, and hermeneutical approaches. In addition to his writings on the work of Xenakis, his research focuses on aspects of recent music, such as Webern, Varèse, Boulez, Criton, Vaggione, Di Scipio, spectral music, electronic music, popular music, and in particular aesthetic questions inspired by the philosophical thought of Adorno.

He defends a radical modernist aesthetic approach to contemporary music and criticizes aesthetics that he considers conservative, particularly neoclassicism and postmodernism.[2] He remains distant from the aesthetics known as "moderate modernists."

He opposes historicism, a linear reading of the history of music in which the evolution of aesthetics is considered only in a uniform sense with reference only to great names. He defends the idea that musical evolution is a complex and multifaceted movement of different conceptions and aesthetics.

His recent work has focused on themes such as the emergence of sound, sound ecology and decay. From these recent works he has produced books, articles, and papers to symposiums.
