El cultivo de la música docta en Chile como una práctica histórico-social. La comunicación, circulación y recepción de tres obras sinfónicas pioneras en dos espacios institucionales: 1918-1923 y 1928-1950

The purpose of this article is the discussion of two pioneer orchestral works written by Enrique Soro (1884-1954) (Grand Concerto in D major for piano and orchestra, 1918; and Grand Romantic Symphony in A major, 1921) and one by Luigi Stefano Giarda (1868-1952) (Beyond Death, symphonic poem, op. 131, 1922), in terms of their communication, circulation and reception during two consecutive periods of the history of Chilean music, spanning between 1918-1923 and 1928-1950, within the framework of power as handled by music institutions. This amounts to a methodological proposal to study art music both as a historical and a social practice.
