  • Il Mio Canzoniere in Inglese
    MY CANZONIERE By Carlo Siliotto I can't remember how it all started... The first image I have in mind is the Parioli's branch of the Italian Communist Party, where Stefano Lepri, Teresa Marchesi, Maurizio Gnerre, and maybe Clara Sereni, are singing folk songs. Songs like "Gli Scariolanti". Songs easy to sing, just a few chords, simple and yet filled with something absolute, something fierce as you find in classic music. They are songs, yet they're not light, easy-listening stuff; they are songs you want to sing together, they talk about people and real feelings, they are inventions and yet they are not, they are the legacy you want to pass on, a gift you hand to somebody, something deeply physical inviting you to participate, calling you to clap your hands on the same beat, and join the chorus. Those songs are different, a good vehicle for those of us in search for another dimension, an alternative project to what society and schools in the '60s tried to transmit. I don't know why, but I feel my Latin and Greek teacher won't like those songs, not to talk about my math teacher! But they are fine to me: I feel like I suddenly found a dress fitting on me like a glove. I go back in time when I was 10 years old, and to my mind runs to those long white shirts of the Gospel Choir of the Black Nativity which opened my eyes, ears and heart in Spoleto, where my mother brought me, on occasion of the Two Worlds Festival [Il Festival dei due mondi], in 1960, the moment I felt music anointed me.

The 18 member chamber choir will be augmented by an additional 22 singers to handle the demands of the summer’s music that will primarily feature music by recently deceased composer Gian Carlo Menotti, one of the founders of the Festival. The choir will be in residence June 25 through July 17 at the famed festival in the ancient Umbrian hill town. Major works performed by The Crossing this summer include Menotti’s opera Maria Golovin, Landscapes and Remembrances, a symphonic cantata, Missa O Pulchritudo, and the popular choral fable The Unicorn, the Gorgon, and the Manticore.

Subjectivity And Politics In Pasolini's Bourgeois Tragic Theater Abstract Italian author Pier Paolo Pasolini wrote his plays Affabulazione, Orgia and Porcile during his shift to theater in the late 1960s as a critical response to consumer culture in Italy and the West more generally. For him, this expanding mass, petit-bourgeois civilization displaced Italy’s premodern cultures and their sense of the sacred. In his plays, his bourgeois protagonists re-experience the sacred and undergo conversion. The works engender his new “bourgeois tragic” genre, in which the sacred’s return destroys modern subjectivity. They offer a unique examination of this subjectivity, its radicalizing breakdown and the potential radical politics that could emerge from that breakdown. To further these significant insights, this study systematically theorizes Pasolini’s Bourgeois Tragic Theater – his dramatic genre and its production through his “Word Theater” practices – as one of bourgeois subjectivity and politics. It is the first of its kind among the Italian- and English-language criticism, framed through psychoanalysis and classical and twentieth-century Western theater.

    Università degli Studi di Roma 'La Sapienza' Dipartimento di Studi glottoantropologici e Discipline musicali <http://rmcisadu.let.uniroma1.it/glotto/> aprile 2003 Roberta Tucci Diego Carpitella: bibliografia Indice Introduzione Sigle e abbreviazioni Pubblicazioni A Pubblicazioni B Soggettario 1 Introduzione Questa bibliografia, che costituisce una versione riveduta e aggiornata di quella già pubblicata, con eguale titolo, nella «Nuova Rivista Musicale Italiana»,1 concerne gli scritti pubblicati da Diego Carpitella tra il 1949 e il 1994 (dopo il 1990, postumi) nell’ambito della sua lunga, densa e articolata attività di studioso.2 Complessivamente sono qui raccolti 380 titoli, che si può dire rappresentino, con buona approssimazione, la quasi totalità dell’impegno bibliografico dello studioso.3 Si è ritenuto opportuno ripartire i dati bibliografici in due gruppi: un primo gruppo (A) relativo a libri, saggi e articoli pubblicati in sedi scientifiche e in periodici a carattere culturale con scadenza almeno mensile (215 titoli); un secondo gruppo (B) relativo ad articoli pubblicati su quotidiani e settimanali (165 titoli). Questa bipartizione permette di individuare due attività parallele, fra loro strettamente correlate, ma anche diversificate nelle forme e negli intenti, ambedue condotte con il medesimo rigore. 1 R.
