Resumen
En el marco de una contribución para una historia social de la industria del folklore musical argentino, este trabajo se concentra en el modo en que se articulan en ella las perspectivas recogidas aquí bajo el nombre de “ilustradas” y que se nutren del refinamiento estético y estilístico propio de los ámbitos “cultivados”. Luego de algunas consideraciones generales sobre las relaciones entre folklore, industria musical e identidad y una caracterización de las identidades ilustradas en general, se distinguen, en términos históricos, ideológicos y estéticos, dos modalidades diferentes de iden- tidad ilustrada, cada una de ellas directamente influyente en un momento dado del desarrollo de la industria del folklore musical argentino, aunque ambas han continuado reproduciéndose en alguna medida hasta hoy. Una de ellas, vigente ya en los momentos fundacionales de esa industria, se hace cargo de la perspectiva de los intelectuales románticos, que entienden el folklore como la expresión ingenua de un espíritu popular, llamado a ser realzado por la gestión de los “grandes artistas”. La otra, que asoma ya decididamente a partir de los 1960, plantea una historización explícita de la belleza, en correspondencia con la perspectiva historicista con la que conciben al pueblo mismo.
Pointing to the general aim of contributing to a social history of the industry of Argentine musical folklore, this paper focuses on the way those perspectives are brought together within it, which are here labeled “learned” and feeds off the stylistic and aesthetic refinement characteristic of the “cultured” realm. After some consideration of the general relationships between folklore, musical industry and identity; and a characterization of learned identities in general terms, two modalities of learned identities are distinguished, in historical, ideological and aesthetic terms, each of one, in turn, directly influential in some given stage on the development of the industry of argentine musi- cal folklore, although both of them have persistently reproduced themselves up to this day. One of them, already active in the foundational moments of the industry, assumes the romantic intellectual perspective, understanding folklore as the naïve expression of some popular spirit, to be elevated by the work of the “great artists”. The other one, which shows up clearly already in the 1960, proposes some explicit historization of beauty, consistent with the historicist perspective they assume for the conception of people itself.
