Introduction

Cataloguing

For the cataloguing, finished in July 2012, Cabiria Project benefited from the technical-scientific collaboration of the Direzione Regionale per i Beni Culturali e Paesaggistici del Piemonte (Ministero per i Beni e le Attività Culturali), with whom on 15th January 2010 the Universiy di Turin (former Dipartimento di Discipline Artistiche, Musicali e dello Spettacolo) signed an agreement. Following this agreement the Direzione Regionale allowed the free use of Cadmus, a software for cataloguing scores able to provide a detailed description of items and several authority headings (names, music forms, scoring, notation).

The records then merged, together with digitised items, into a web platform specially designed by Alicubi s.r.l. using open-source tools.

The catalogue, carried out by Silvia Caratti and Flavia Ingrosso applying most recent national and international standards and rules, includes 3,916 records, between series and periodicals (100), monographs (2,119), analytics (1,658), multi-part monographic publications’-volumes without a significant title (39).

132 records include partial or complete digital images of the score they refer to.

For different reasons (inaccessible premises, unavailable items, organising peculiarities of the institutions under scrutiny etc.), the catalogue does not include the manuscripts and the editions listed in the file hereby attached.

The same happens with the items which, though taken into account in the final census, were retrived after the cataloguing was finished, like the ones acquired in the last months:
