This article analyses the interplay between sound and urban spaces in Spain, from the end of nineteenth century until 1936. Free outdoor concerts performed by bands in public urban spaces offered a new aural experience audience from across an increasing range of very diverse social groups, almost ritualizing both the practice of listening to music and the spaces in which that music was heard—all at a time when those very spaces were changing, in a way which mirrored the wider reconfiguration and modernization of Spanish cities. Case studies focusing on political, social, and cultural changes in urban spaces are analyzed, in order to understand how cities developed new spaces for social interaction, the modern sonic environment, and the ways in which those cities have appropriated culture for their citizens, as a symbol of urban modernity.

本文分析了从19世纪末到1936年西班牙的声音与城市空间之间的相互作用。公共城市空间中的乐队举办的免费户外音乐会为来自越来越多的非常多样化的社会群体的听众提供了新的听觉体验。在聆听音乐和聆听音乐的空间发生变化的同时，对这些习惯进行礼节化，以反映西班牙城市更广泛的重新配置和现代化的方式。为了更好地理解城市如何为社会互动，现代的声音环境以及城市如何为公民提供文化的新方式开发新的空间，案例分析着重于城市空间中的政治，社会和文化变化进行了分析。城市现代性的象征。
