Abstract:
Subject. The availability and adequacy of the risk management system of any company is taken into account by government regulation, rating agencies, auditors, and company owners and shareholders. Therefore, companies make arrangements for risk management in some form or other. However, the assessment of event risk and creation of a transparent and effective event assessment system raise many questions. Objectives. We focus on solving the problem of attaining an objective assessment of event risk for company's units, creating an effective risk management system for companies operating in a rapidly changing environment. Methods. The methodology of the study draws on the use of parallel work of departments on assessing event risk and adopting measures to mitigate it. Results. We offer a solution for creating an effective system for event risk assessment. The system also deals with events that simultaneously affect different departments. Conclusions. Organization of simultaneous work of units on assessment of events, their classification as event risk, and taking measures to minimize the impact on company's activities will reduce the time for the analysis of events and increase the objectivity of event risk assessment.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to evaluate and discuss the involvement in sustainable development of French event companies, mostly by identifying facilitators and barriers to their sustainability strategy. Based on the results, some recommendations are provided, which aim at increasing the sustainability of French event companies. Design/methodology/approach The paper is based on face-to-face and semi-structured interviews with six directors and top managers of French event companies and a consultant in sustainable tourism. The data collected were analysed through a content analysis. Findings This paper identified different motivations and barriers regarding the involvement of French event companies in sustainability. The main motivations are personal conviction, a greater satisfaction for clients and a cost similar to the one of non-sustainable events. The main barriers are a difficulty in comparing the cost of sustainable and non-sustainable events, a low demand for sustainable events, a lower quality of materials and greenwashing, the issue of measuring sustainability and a profusion of labels. Practical implications As the directors of French event companies interviews do believe in the value of sustainability, they should educate their clients and employees towards sustainability. They should also find ways to demonstrate that the price of a sustainable event is not higher than a non-sustainable one. Originality/value This paper focusses on the sustainability of event companies in France, comparing companies that are highly involved in sustainability and others that are not involved. In the field of events research, most studies focussed on the degree of sustainability of specific events, whereas this study deals with the sustainability of corporate events companies.

Abstract:
Companies can engage in event marketing either by creating and hosting an event or by sponsoring a preexisting event. Although these are well-established event marketing strategies, consumer responses to event origin (hosting vs. sponsoring) have received limited scholarly attention. This article presents an experimental study of event origin and brand-related event leveraging. The first purpose was to investigate consumers' evaluations of hosted versus sponsored events and hosting versus sponsoring companies, and to test mechanisms that may explain these differences. The second purpose was to test consumer responses to brand-related leveraging activities for both types of events. Results show that consumers' evaluation of the event and the company differs significantly depending on the event origin, and that both types of events have much to gain from brand-related leveraging. Key explanatory mechanisms for these effects are perceived sincerity of company motives, company–event fit, and perceived amount of resources invested in the event.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the impact of deoffshorization on the market value of Russian companies. The methodology of event study was used. Three events were analyzed, including the announcement of intentions to leave offshores from several major companies and the introduction of anti-offshore legislation (December 2013 - March 2014). We have not revealed any mutually significant market response to the selected events, since some of the firms faced positive cumulative abnormal returns, while the others encountered negative ones. At the same time, an empirical study showed evidence of significant negative effect on the market value for several companies. It can be argued that the deoffshorization impact on companies depends to a large extent on the offshore structure they use. Companies that are significantly exposed to deoffshorization need to adjust their strategy in order to counter potential negative consequences of this process

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: This research paper applies the resource-event-agent (REA) framework to model the unique patterns, in both the REA accountability and policy infrastructures, of the mining enterprise domain. A unique resource in this domain is the mineral resource (MinResc), and the acquisition and development of MinResc to prepare it for the mining conversion process requires a unique information acquisition event to create and expand an information resource entity. The physical mineral deposit entity set and the intangible information entity set are thus aggregated into a more abstract and more valuable MinResc resource. The aggregation of a physical resource and an intangible information resource into a more certain and more valuable physical resource is an extension of the REA ontology that has applications in enterprise domains outside of mining.

Abstract:
Companies invest millions of dollars to become “official sponsors” of major global sporting events. The tremendous publicity and consumer audiences generated by such events provide an attractive marketing opportunity for companies other than the event’s official sponsors who seek to associate themselves in the minds of the public with the goodwill and popularity of these events. This activity, known as ambush marketing, poses significant legal and business challenges for sport event organizers seeking to protect both the financial investment of official sponsors and the integrity of their sponsorship programs. With rising sponsorship stakes, event organizers have become increasingly proactive in their efforts to combat ambush marketing. This article examines the implementation and effectiveness of a variety of evolving sponsorship program protection strategies including: pre-event education and public relations initiatives; on-site policing tactics; contractual language in athlete participation and spectator ticket agreements; and the enactment and enforcement of special trademark protection legislation.

<p>The event communication has for objective to give another dimension to the company or to the brand, by bringing it out of its daily life and by developing relations with its target public, around their centers of interests. It may be by sharing the same passions, by making live feelings to a group, by federating and by creating links; because today we need a more emotional and more real component.</p><p>Since a few years, the event communication seems to be "revisited" by companies and appears to stand out as an alternative to media or other more traditional tools.

Abstract:
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to explain why companies in France use the event promotion. Method: In this part we explain how we are going to collect our information. On one hand we collect secondary data from books and internet websites to have an overview of the event promotion market and on the other we collect primary data through three written interviews sent to an event promotion agency’s CEO, one project manager of the same company, and an executive assistant, who works in a company which uses event promotion agencies to set its events up. We also explain why we choose this method, these persons and the kind of questions we ask. Theoretical framework: In this chapter we explain all the important terms necessary to well understand the topic we chose by defining some specific concepts. Indeed, we talk in a first time about communication in a general way and then more specifically about event promotion, its definition, types and aims. We also in this part explain others concepts such as the loyalty. Conclusion: We present the answer of our purpose. Companies use event promotion for mostly three reasons that are to get a good corporate image, be well known and also to federate and motivate its work forces. We go a little further in this part talking about event promotion agencies and their competitive advantages, especially the customers’ loyalty, to stay competitive on the market. Finally, we talk also about the limits of our study.

Saitovic, Maja, Valdete Saliji, and Carine Enow. "Activity Based Costing : Is it applicable in an event organising firm?" Thesis, Jönköping University, Jönköping International Business School, 2007. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:hj:diva-732.

Full text
Abstract:

Companies need different information about their operations, so that they can make better decisions and be more effective in the business world. One way to obtain that information is through looking at how costs are assigned to different cost objects, such as products or services. Of special interest is the allocation of indirect costs, because if these costs make up an important part of an organisation, then grasping them will help the firm be more competitive and respond better to customers and their needs.

One method of allocating indirect costs is called activity based costing, or ABC, and it looks upon what activities that are being performed by a company, how much they cost based on resource usage, what drives the costs, and most importantly, it assigns these ex-penses to products/services.

The aim of this thesis has been to investigate whether the ABC method can be applied in an event organising company. In order to reach the purpose we have used the example of Elmia AB, an event and trade show organiser situated in Jönköping, Sweden. The focus of our investigation was exhibition stands used in trade shows.

We have come to the conclusion that activity based costing is applicable when it comes to event organisers in the sense that it is possible to identify major activities and depict re-sources. However, problems emerge when trying to estimate costs of resources because it is hard to know in advance what customers want, and therefore one cannot clearly distin-guish or set fixed and variable costs, nor can one easily cope with problems of unused ca-pacity, that is resources that are supplied but not used. This is especially the case with cus-tomised exhibition stands. The process is somewhat easier when it comes to standardised offerings, because they are less complicated since they are already set and cannot be much altered by the customers. Furthermore, cost drivers can be applied in this setting, at least theoretically because they provide help in determining what processes the customers might find important. On the other hand, they might be rather difficult to measure. Finally, the actual assigning of costs to cost objects is hard, because for the complex solutions, one cannot easily find common activities across different stands, but this can be easier to do when exhibition stand pack-ages are standardised and demand is better traceable.

We have based our results on one company as a generalisation of event organisers as a whole, and we can argue that the example that we have chosen can be a good representa-tive of this particular branch of the service industry, because it shows how important indi-rect costs are to this dynamic business and also it reveals the importance of customers and their role when applying activity based costing to the environment. However, in order to have a complete conclusion with respect to our aim, more research is needed in other event and trade show organising firms because there are company specific situations in terms of size, structure, culture, etc, of a company that makes ABC a special case that changes ac-cording to different objectives of different users.

Abstract:
Sports sponsorship has become a global and multi-billion dollar business. It is an integral part of the company's marketing strategy and viewed as a highly effective form of advertising. Clearly, companies have understood the value of sponsorship for their marketing portfolio and aim to build brand awareness, image, customers’ and employees’ loyalty, and generate higher revenues. However, previous research has shown that the potential of sports sponsorship is still not sufficiently used in Poland. Companies in this country lack knowledge and awareness about the sponsorship of sporting events.The purpose of this study is to analyze differences and similarities between companies' sponsorship processes that sponsor local, national, and international sporting events in Poland. It includes exploring sponsorship promotional activities, objectives, selection criteria, as well as decision-making procedures followed by businesses in the sponsorship exchange process.A qualitative comparative study consisting of 19 interviews with representatives sponsoring sporting events in Poland was used.The results revealed that sponsorship processes vary depending on the level of the sponsored sports event. As the level increases from local to national or international, companies adopt more profit-oriented goals and decisions. Whereas companies sponsoring local sporting events often based their choices on emotions and sympathy to sports disciplines or event organizers. Furthermore, the results also suggested that there is a significant difference between the decision-making procedures of companies involved in sponsoring different levels of sporting events. As the event level rises, it becomes more complex, considered, and longer.In summary, the study shows that companies in Poland recognize event sponsorship as an efficient way to create brand and product image. Although the study also discovers that the role of event sponsorship as a communication tool to achieve commercial goals is not seen by some corporations as a key aspect of strategy.

Whilst, there are many rules that restricts the non-official company´s campaigns. Regardless, non-official sponsors are still able to associate themselves with the event by using creative viral marketing campaigns and endorsing athletes, thus create brand awareness by so called ambush marketing.

Abstract:
This master thesis is aimed towards answering the question What is the contribution from a company’s sector with regards to its survival of a financial crisis? with the sub question Can we use survival analysis on financial data to answer this?. Thus survival analysis is used to answer our main question which is seldom used on financial data. This is interesting since it will study how well survival analysis can be used on financial data at the same time as it will evaluate if all companies experiences a financial crisis in the same way. The dataset consists of all companies traded on the Swedish stock market during 2008. The results show that the survival method is very suitable the data that is used. The sector a company operated in has a significant effect. However the power is to low too give any indication of specific differences between the different sectors. Further on it is found that the group of smallest companies had much better survival than larger companies.

Eventföretagen har en positiv inställning till relationsmarknadsföring och tycker att de använder sig av den. De marknadsför sig på ett ungefär likadant sätt genom de kanaler som är skilda från kanaler som används vid transaktionsmarknadsföring. Det som kännetecknar implementeringen av relationsmarknadsföring är företagets attityd till relationer med sina kunder och samarbetspartners samt förståelsen av vilken roll kommunikation och interaktion spelar i deras arbete.

Full text
Abstract:
Marketers have come to realise that an abundance of potential customers can be reached through Facebook advertising. Although a new player, Instagram is quickly catching up to Facebook’s success with its native ads. Despite this, there is a scarcity in the amount of academic literature that explores the use of them. This thesis aims to rectify that, by contributing to the academic discourse surrounding Instagram ads. Shownight, a live event promotion company, had yet to run ads on Instagram. Using split-testing, this thesis was aimed to figure out which ad features generated the highest click-through-rates. The tests were carried out through Facebook’s ad manager. Although a unique platform, functioning with both drawbacks and benefits, it provided this study with an efficient tool to split-test ads. The results from this study demonstrated Instagram to be a suitable platform on which to advertise live events. Furthermore, the findings revealed targeting through lookalikes as well as behaviour, results in the highest click-through-rate. Moreover, using a video with 4 hashtags for lookalikes targeting, and an image with up to 3 hashtags for behaviour targeting, were the best ad set combinations. A call-to-action, portraying some degree of urgency, should also be employed within the caption. Nevertheless, this study has its limitations. Including being restricted demographically, as well as being confined to Shownight’s target audience, and advertising content. Furthermore, Facebook’s ad manager poses its own limitations as a split-testing platform, in terms of even audience distribution.
Marknadsförare har insett att ett överflöd av potentiella kunder kan nås via Facebook-reklam. Även om Instagram är ett förhållandevis nytt företag kommer det snabbt ikapp Facebooks framgång med sina integrerade annonser. Trots detta finns det en brist i mängden akademisk litteratur som undersöker användningen av dem. Denna avhandling syftar till att förbättra detta genom att bidra till den akademiska diskursen kring Instagram-annonser. Shownight, ett PR-företag för live-events, hade ännu inte annonserat på Instagram. Med hjälp av så kallad split-testing hade denna avhandling som syfte att ta reda på vilka annonsfunktioner som genererar högst klickfrekvens. Testerna genomfördes genom Facebooks ad manager, och även om det är ett unikt verktyg med både fördelar och nackdelar var det effektivt för split-test-annonser i den här studien. Resultaten från denna studie visade att Instagram är en lämplig plattform för att göra reklam för live-evenemang på. Resultaten visade att inriktning på lookalikes samt behaviour resulterar i högst klickfrekvens. Video med fyra hashtags med inriktning på lookalikes, och bild med upp till tre hashtags för behaviour var de bästa annonskombinationerna. Annonserna bör även ha någon form av call-to-action. Studien är begränsad demografiskt och till Shownights publik och reklaminnehåll. Även Facebooks ad manager har begränsningar som en split-testing-platform när det gäller att annonsera jämnt över den givna publiken

Hubert, Arthur. "Increasing efficiency of sport’s event companies by implementing lean management & lean thinking across the processes defined by the SCOR model: : OC Sport, a case of Sport Event Business Company." Thesis, KTH, Industriell produktion, 2014. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:kth:diva-159079.

Full text
Abstract:
Lean is known as a philosophy, which aims at reducing waste across a whole production line. This concept was originally introduced by Toyota in its automotive production lines. Over time, this idea has grown and has been implemented in all kinds of industrial companies and businesses. Its main objective is to optimise the production line in reducing and eliminating all kinds of wastesThe SCOR model - Supply Chain Operation Reference model – has been created by the Supply Chain Council. First developed by two consulting firms in Boston, this model addressed the need for formalizing and standardizing the supply chain. The SCOR model was developed by the Supply Chain Council, to describe “the business activities associated with all phases of satisfying a customer’s demand”. Throughout my experience in the sports event business at OC Sport, my aim was to adapt the manufacturing knowledge I studied at KTH to this specific area. I had the opportunity to study how the different tools, methods and models linked to SCOR model and to the Lean could be suitable for OC Sport and the event I was working on: the Extreme Sailing SeriesTM. I choose this perspective because I wanted to analyse how a more ‘modern’ industry such as Sports Event can learn from the Manufacturing and Production industry about how to manage their company. The focus will be on the processes. Aim is to increase their efficiency through improvements, like the implementation of lean management.As a first step, this paper will give a general overview of the SCOR Model and of the concept of the Lean (lean management, lean thinking). After that, the paper will describe and adapt the process of an ESS event by the help of the SCOR model. It aims at being able to standardize the processes, and defined them in a structural way. The last part will try to explain how the lean management and the lean thinking tools implemented can bring improvements to the delivery process of the Extreme Sailing SeriesTM.

Abstract:
AbstractThe integrated planning and control of logistics processes can be seen as one of the basic prerequisites for the successful implementation of smart production systems and smart and lean supply chains, as well. Therefore, modern Industry 4.0 approaches are mainly focusing on (1) the principles of decentralization and (2) the usage of real-time data to improve the overall logistics performance in terms of promised delivery dates, work in progress, capacity utilization, and lead-times. In this context, this chapter systematically evaluates the application of decentralized production planning and control strategies, e.g., KANBAN and CONWIP, in comparison with traditional approaches, like MRP. Moreover, the impact of real-time data usage in production planning and control systems on lead-times and work in progress is investigated using a discrete event simulation based on primary data from a make to order manufacturer. The results of this industrial case study research confirm the significant potential that lies in smart production systems and smart and lean supply chains and, therefore, in the introduction of Industry 4.0 technologies and technological concepts in production and logistics systems.

Abstract:
In times of globalized markets and rapidly advancing technologies, companies are demanded to produce highly individualized products in shorter life cycles. This requires a certain flexibility in production processes, which, in turn, leads to a higher process complexity. In order to face these challenges, companies need to rely increasingly on the application of software tools for modeling and simulation of production systems. One of the most commonly used tools in the field of digital production planning and control is the discrete-event simulation (DES). A discrete-event simulation software allows production planners to create digital models of production systems and simulate process and material flows. It can be used not only to improve the design of production systems in the early stage of planning, but also to analyze changes in the system’s behavior during operative processes. In this paper, an event-based modeling and simulation software for flexibility-driven manufacturing processes in value-added process chains is developed. The software presented in this paper is aimed particularly at small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with low degree of automation and high product variety. The goal of this approach is to enable the modeling and simulation of manufacturing systems where the required manufacturing operations depend on production workers and vary with each production order. Using the approach described in this paper, a high variety of manufacturing process sequences in a flexible manufacturing system with different layouts, where material flows, worker paths, and part routings are not determined in fixed order, can be modeled, analyzed, and optimized.

Abstract:
Financial risk, defined as the chance to deviate from return expectations, is most commonly measured with volatility. Due to its value for investment decision making, volatility prediction is probably among the most important tasks in finance and risk management. Although evidence exists that enriching purely financial models with natural language information can improve predictions of volatility, this task is still comparably underexplored. We introduce PRoFET, the first neural model for volatility prediction jointly exploiting both semantic language representations and a comprehensive set of financial features. As language data, we use transcripts from quarterly recurring events, so-called "earnings calls"; in these calls, the performance of publicly traded companies is summarized and prognosticated by their management. We show that our proposed architecture, which models verbal context with an attention mechanism, significantly outperforms the previous state-of-the-art and other strong baselines. Finally, we visualize this attention mechanism on the token-level, thus aiding interpretability and providing a use case of PRoFET as a tool for investment decision support.

Full text
Abstract:
In the times of economic instability in most developed countries, a decrease is experienced in the effectiveness of many large public corporations. Such corporations are facing high expenditures (transaction costs mostly) and extremely low return on invested capital. Medium-sized businesses, on the contrary, prove to be more efficient: they show an acceptable level of profitability and total cost savings. The purpose of the present study is to calculate and analyse transaction costs of medium and large corporations and identify an impact of these costs on the performance of companies. Within the the framework of a neoinstitutional approach a complex of institutional factors influencing a company’s development is being explored. The efficiency of institutional forms is determined through studying such factors as transaction costs. In line with this theory, the transaction cost level of corporations is estimated, which enables one to make their comparative analysis in economic sectors. The analysis has revealed that the relative level of transaction costs with large corporations is two times higher than that in the event of middle ones. A comparative analysis of return on sales in two groups of companies has pointed to a fact that after 2010 the margin of middle-sized companies exceeded the profitability of large companies. The relationship between the level of transaction costs and return on sales in two groups of companies is being quantified as well. We have proved that middle-sized corporations have shown a direct relationship. On the contrary, transaction costs negatively affect profitability in large corporations.

Abstract:
The share prices of listed companies in the stock trading market are prone to be influenced by various events. Performing event detection could help people to timely identify investment risks and opportunities accompanying these events. The financial events inherently present hierarchical structures, which could be represented as tree-structured schemes in real-life applications, and detecting events could be modeled as a hierarchical multi-label text classification problem, where an event is designated to a tree node with a sequence of hierarchical event category labels. Conventional hierarchical multi-label text classification methods usually ignore the hierarchical relationships existing in the event classification scheme, and treat the hierarchical labels associated with an event as uniform labels, where correct or wrong label predictions are assigned with equal rewards or penalties. In this paper, we propose a neural hierarchical multi-label text classification method, namely F-HMTC, for a financial application scenario with massive event category labels. F-HMTC learns the latent features based on bidirectional encoder representations from transformers, and directly maps them to hierarchical labels with a delicate hierarchy-based loss layer. We conduct extensive experiments on a private financial dataset with elaborately-annotated labels, and F-HMTC consistently outperforms state-of-art baselines by substantial margins. We will release both the source codes and dataset on the first author's repository.

Abstract:
HVLV environments are characterized by high product variety and small lot production, pushing companies to recursively design and optimize their production systems in a very short time to reach high-level performance. To increase their competitiveness, companies belonging to these industries, often SMEs working as third parties, ask for decision-making tools to support them in a quick and reactive reconfiguration of their production lines. Traditional discrete event simulation models, widely studied in the literature to solve production-related issues, do not allow real-time support to business decisions in dynamic contexts, due to the time-consuming activities needed to re-align parameters to changing environments. Data-driven approach overcomes these limitations, giving the possibility to easily update input and quickly rebuild the model itself without any changes in the modeling code. The proposed data-driven simulation model has also been interfaced with a commonly-used BI tool to support companies in the iterative comparison of different scenarios to define the optimal resource allocation for the requested production plan. The simulation model has been implemented into a SME operating in the footwear industry, showing how this approach can be used by companies to increase their performance even without a specific knowledge in building and validating simulation models.

Full text
Abstract:
Structured financing solutions encompass a range of investment approaches that provide liquidity to investors without the need for a traditional equity exit event, such as a strategic sale, sale to another financial investor, or public market listing. Structuring mechanisms across the debt-to-equity spectrum determine the exit terms of the deal, therefore providing considerable downside protection to investors. Structured financing solutions are an incipient but increasingly important set of tools for investors active in Latin America to address the financing gap for companies that lack access to bank financing and are not attractive targets for traditional PE and VC players. Many investors employing these strategies are in an experimental phase, reporting new lessons learned with each deal completed. Impact investors have been among the top drivers of these structuring innovations, as they have grappled with the additional limitations associated with the straight equity model for environmental or social enterprises. However, the use of structured financing is by no means restricted to the impact investing space. Fund managers have invested USD4b in private credit deals in Latin America since 2018, more than the previous ten years combined. PE and VC investors have also increasingly employed quasi-equity and debt instruments. ACON Investments, for example, has employed mezzanine structures in several deals from its latest funds. Brazil-focused venture capital firm SP Ventures has recently begun investing from its debut venture debt fund. Growing experimentation by fund managers demonstrates the opportunity for investors across ticket sizes, strategies, and the impact-to-commercial spectrum. The structures discussed and the case studies highlighted in this report contain some of the major lessons applicable to a wide group of private capital investors in Latin America targeting certain and timely exits with consistent returns.

Full text
Abstract:
In defined contribution systems, at the end of the accumulation phase the assets in the retirement account are exchanged for a pension. The conversion rate from assets to retirement income (which depends on the level of interest rates) is very volatile, and its variations constitute the main investment risk facing pension fund affiliates. In this sense, performance metrics, management fees and benchmark portfolios that focus on assets (and asset returns) and ignore the variations in the conversion rate, embed several problems: i. they send wrong signals to regulators, fund managers and workers, ii. they provide wrong incentives to pension fund management companies, and iii. they leave pension fund affiliates exposed to their largest risk factor, even during the last few years preceding their retirement date. We find that regulatory incentives with these fundamental problems are ubiquitous in the region. The document presents a series of best practices, and delivers a practical set of tools to assist regulators and supervisors in designing a framework that improves security and sufficiency of retirement income, and provides relevant and timely information to pension fund affiliates. The framework achieves that by fostering an integration of the accumulation and the payout phases, and an alignment of the regulatory incentives for pension fund management companies with the retirement income objectives of pension fund affiliates. Using historical data from Colombia as a case study, the document illustrates and quantifies the improvements in terms of pension benefits and retirement income security that the proposed framework could bring.

Abstract:
The French composer Francis Poulenc had a profound admiration and empathy for the writings of the Spanish poet Federico García Lorca. That empathy was rooted in shared aspects of the artistic temperament of the two figures but was also undoubtedly reinforced by Poulenc’s fellow-feeling on a human level. As someone who wrestled with his own homosexuality and who kept his orientation and his relationships apart from his public persona, Poulenc would have felt an instinctive affinity for a figure who endured similar internal conflicts but who, especially in his later life and poetry, was more open about his sexuality. Lorca paid a heavy price for this refusal to dissimulate; his arrest in August 1936 and his assassination the following day, probably by Nationalist militia, was accompanied by taunts from his killers about his sexuality. Everything about the Spanish poet’s life, his artistic affinities, his personal predilections and even the relationship between these and his death made him someone to whom Poulenc would be naturally drawn and whose untimely demise he would feel keenly and might wish to commemorate musically. Starting with the death of both his parents while he was still in his teens, reinforced by the sudden loss in 1930 of an especially close friend, confidante and kindred spirit, and continuing throughout the remainder of his life with the periodic loss of close friends, companions and fellow-artists, Poulenc’s life was marked by a succession of bereavements. Significantly, many of the dedications that head up his compositions are ‘to the memory of’ the individual named. As Poulenc grew older, and the list of those whom he had outlived lengthened inexorably, his natural tendency towards the nostalgic and the elegiac fused with a growing sense of what might be termed a ‘survivor’s anguish’, part of which he sublimated into his musical works. It should therefore come as no surprise that, during the 1940s, and in fulfilment of a desire that he had felt since the poet’s death, he should turn to Lorca for inspiration and, in the process, attempt his own act of homage in two separate works: the Violin Sonata and the ‘Trois Chansons de Federico García Lorca’. This exposition attempts to unfold aspects of the two men’s aesthetic pre-occupations and to show how the parallels uncovered cast reciprocal light upon their respective approaches to the creative process. It also examines the network of enfolded associations, musical and autobiographical, which link Poulenc’s two compositions commemorating Lorca, not only to one another but also to a wider circle of the composer’s works, especially his cycle setting poems of Guillaume Apollinaire: ‘Calligrammes’. Composed a year after the ‘Trois Chansons de Federico García Lorca’, this intricately wrought collection of seven mélodies, which Poulenc saw as the culmination of an intensive phase in his activity in this genre, revisits some of ‘unheard voices’ and ‘unseen shadows’ enfolded in its predecessor. It may be viewed, in part, as an attempt to bring to fuller resolution the veiled but keenly-felt anguish invoked by these paradoxical properties.
