  • La Generazione Dell'ottanta and the Italian Sound
    LA GENERAZIONE DELL’OTTANTA AND THE ITALIAN SOUND A DISSERTATION IN Trumpet Performance Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS by ALBERTO RACANATI M.M., Western Illinois University, 2016 B.A., Conservatorio Piccinni, 2010 Kansas City, Missouri 2021 LA GENERAZIONE DELL’OTTANTA AND THE ITALIAN SOUND Alberto Racanati, Candidate for the Doctor of Musical Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2021 ABSTRACT . La Generazione dell’Ottanta (The Generation of the Eighties) is a generation of Italian composers born in the 1880s, all of whom reached their artistic maturity between the two World Wars and who made it a point to part ways musically from the preceding generations that were rooted in operatic music, especially in the Verismo tradition. The names commonly associated with the Generazione are Alfredo Casella (1883-1947), Gian Francesco Malipiero (1882-1973), Ildebrando Pizzetti (1880-1968), and Ottorino Respighi (1879- 1936). In their efforts to create a new music that sounded unmistakingly Italian and fueled by the musical nationalism rampant throughout Europe at the time, the four composers took inspiration from the pre-Romantic music of their country. Individually and collectively, they embarked on a journey to bring back what they considered the golden age of Italian music, with each one yielding a different result. iii Through the creation of artistic associations facilitated by the fascist government, the musicians from the Generazione established themselves on the international scene and were involved with performances of their works around the world.

  • Thesis Submission
    Rebuilding a Culture: Studies in Italian Music after Fascism, 1943-1953 Peter Roderick PhD Music Department of Music, University of York March 2010 Abstract The devastation enacted on the Italian nation by Mussolini’s ventennio and the Second World War had cultural as well as political effects. Combined with the fading careers of the leading generazione dell’ottanta composers (Alfredo Casella, Gian Francesco Malipiero and Ildebrando Pizzetti), it led to a historical moment of perceived crisis and artistic vulnerability within Italian contemporary music. Yet by 1953, dodecaphony had swept the artistic establishment, musical theatre was beginning a renaissance, Italian composers featured prominently at the Darmstadt Ferienkurse , Milan was a pioneering frontier for electronic composition, and contemporary music journals and concerts had become major cultural loci. What happened to effect these monumental stylistic and historical transitions? In addressing this question, this thesis provides a series of studies on music and the politics of musical culture in this ten-year period. It charts Italy’s musical journey from the cultural destruction of the post-war period to its role in the early fifties within the meteoric international rise of the avant-garde artist as institutionally and governmentally-endorsed superman. Integrating stylistic and aesthetic analysis within a historicist framework, its chapters deal with topics such as the collective memory of fascism, internationalism, anti- fascist reaction, the appropriation of serialist aesthetics, the nature of Italian modernism in the ‘aftermath’, the Italian realist/formalist debates, the contradictory politics of musical ‘commitment’, and the growth of a ‘new-music’ culture. In demonstrating how the conflict of the Second World War and its diverse aftermath precipitated a pluralistic and increasingly avant-garde musical society in Italy, this study offers new insights into the transition between pre- and post-war modernist aesthetics and brings musicological focus onto an important but little-studied era.

  • Selected Vocal Works by Progressive Italian
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: SELECTED VOCAL WORKS BY PROGRESSIVE ITALIAN COMPOSERS OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY: THE CONFLUENCE OF NATIONALISM AND INTERNATIONALISM FROM THE EVE OF WORLD WAR I THROUGH POST-WORLD WAR I1 RECONSTRUCTION Stacey Lynn Mastrian, D.M.A., 2007 Directed By: Professor Dominic Cossa, School of Music This dissertation project explored the non-operatic vocal music (i.e., art song, chamber music, solo works, and other more experimental media) by Italian composers of the 20th century. This body of repertoire suffers from poor availability and quality of scores, recordings, performances, and information. Research took place in the U.S. and Italy-through musical investigations, personal collections and contacts, libraries, and online resources. The project was designed with several parameters in mind: 1. work was centered on the composers who cast the text and the piano or other "accompaniment" in important roles, with correspondingly complex rhythms and harmonies, and who melded cosmopolitan influences with Italianate lyricism, as opposed to those who merely continued in the simplistic, insular manner of their predecessors; 2. settings by Italian composers of texts in other languages were included (Apollinaire, Ibn-Ezra, Machado, Verlaine, etc.) in addition to settings of Italian poetry (d'Annunzio, Pavese, Ungaretti, etc.); 3. works were chosen that were not just for single voice and piano but also utilized other performing forces (i.e., chamber music, electronics.. .).

  • GIORGIO FEDERICO GHEDINI Dopo Aver Studiato Organo, Pianoforte E
    GIORGIO FEDERICO GHEDINI Dopo aver studiato organo, pianoforte e violoncello a Torino, Giorgio Federico Ghedini (nato qui a Cuneo, nel 1892 e morto a Genova Nervi nel 1965) si è diplomato in Composizione con Marco Enrico Bossi a Bologna, iniziando fin dagli esordi una intensa attività didattica nei Conservatori di Torino, Parma e Milano, dove è stato anche direttore tra il 1951 e il 1962 e dove ha formato numerosi fra i compositori e gli esecutori che sono stati sulla breccia in tutto il secondo Novecento. La sua produzione compositiva — oggi a dir la verità raramente eseguita — è sterminata e, oltre ad opere per gli organici più consueti, comprende molta musica sacra, musica da film e molte trascrizioni e rielaborazioni di opere dell’epoca rinascimentale (specialmente Monteverdi, Frescobaldi e i due Gabrieli). Verso tale letteratura, d’altronde, il nostro concittadino ha sempre manifestato un interesse molto particolare, tanto che non è fuori luogo rileggere la sua produzione nell’ottica di una sintesi tra quel passato, soprattutto italiano, e le moderne correnti neoclassiche, politonali, del primo Novecento. Nondimeno, negli anni attorno alla metà del secolo, Ghedini modernizzò il proprio linguaggio utilizzando un’armonia "aperta" non troppo dissimile al modello atonale; a quegli anni risalgono anche i suoi due lavori di teatro musicale Le baccanti (1948) e Billy Budd (1949), entrambe accolte con discreto successo. Compositore come si diceva molto prolifico, Ghedini ha lavorato assiduamente fino alla fine dei suoi giorni: nella sua copiosa produzione cameristica e sinfonica vanno menzionati il Concerto per orchestra (dedicato alla memoria del direttore d'orchestra prematuramente scomparso Guido Cantelli), i concerti per violino Il Belprato e Concentus Basiliensis, il concerto per due violoncelli L'Olmeneta, la Musica Notturna che spicca per la cura timbrica quasi ossessiva, e il Concerto dell'Albatro per violino, violoncello, pianoforte, voce recitante e orchestra, su testo di Salvatore Quasimodo tratto da Herman Melville.
