References in Potpourris: 'Artificial Fragments' and Paratexts in Mauro Giuliani's Le Rossiniane Opp. 119–123
References in Potpourris: ‘Artificial Fragments’ and Paratexts in Mauro Giuliani’s Le Rossiniane Opp. 119–123 Francesco Teopini Terzetti Casagrande, Hong Kong The early-nineteenth-century guitar virtuoso Mauro Giuliani (1781– 1829) was a master of the potpourri, a genre of which the main characteristic is the featuring of famous opera themes in the form of musical quotations. Giuliani’s Le Rossiniane comprises six such potpourris for guitar, composed at the time when Rossini was the most famous operatic composer in Europe; they are acknowledged as Giuliani’s chef-d’oeuvre in this genre. Through an investigation of the original manuscripts of Le Rossiniane No. 3, Op. 121, and No. 5, Op. 123, I consider that Giuliani, apparently in order to be fully understood by both performers and audiences, wanted to overtly reference these musical quotations; and that he left various paratextual clues which in turn support the validity of my observations. Utilizing both music and literary theory my analysis investigates and categorizes three types of peritextual elements adopted by Giuliani in order to classify and reference the quoted musical themes in Le Rossiniane for both performers and the public: title, intertitle, and literal note. Further investigation of these works also leads to the hypothesis that each of Giuliani’s musical quotations, called in this paper artificial fragments, can be considered as a further, and essential referential element within the works. At the beginning of the nineteenth century the making of potpourris was the quickest way to compose ‘new’ and successful music. Carl Czerny (1791–1857) stated that the public of that time “experience[d] great delight on finding in a composition some pleasing melody […] which it has previously heard at the Opera […] [and] when […] introduced in a spirited and brilliant manner […] both the composer and the practiced player can ensure great success” (1848 online: 86). -

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. -

Rossini: La Recepción De Su Obra En España
EMILIO CASARES RODICIO Rossini: la recepción de su obra en España Rossini es una figura central en el siglo XIX español. La entrada de su obra a través de los teatros de Barcelona y Madrid se produce a partir de 1815 y trajo como consecuencia su presen- cia en salones y cafés por medio de reducciones para canto de sus obras. Más importante aún es la asunción de la producción rossiniana corno símbolo de la nueva creación lírica europea y, por ello, agitadora del conservador pensamiento musical español; Rossini tuvo una influencia decisi- va en la producción lírica y religiosa de nuestro país, cuyo mejor ejemplo serían las primeras ópe- ras de Ramón Carnicer. Rossini correspondió a este fervor y se rodeó de numerosos españoles, comenzando por su esposa Isabel Colbrand, o el gran tenor y compositor Manuel García, termi- nando por su mecenas y amigo, el banquero sevillano Alejandro Aguado. Rossini is a key figure in nineteenth-century Spain. His output first entered Spain via the theatres of Barcelona and Madrid in 1815 and was subsequently present in salons and cafés in the form of vocal reduc- tions. Even more important is the championing of Rossini's output as a model for modern European stage music which slwok up conservative Spanish musical thought. Rossini liad a decisive influence on die sacred and stage-music genres in Spain, the best example of which are Ramón Carnicer's early operas. Rossini rec- ipricated this fervour and surrounded himself with numerous Spanish musicians, first and foremost, his wife Isabel Colbrand, as well as die great tenor and composer Manuel García and bis patron and friend, the Sevil- lan banker Alejandro Aguado. -

Luigi Dallapiccola's Il Prigioniero and Gian Carlo
LUIGI DALLAPICCOLA'S IL PRIGIONIERO AND GIAN CARLO MENOTTI'S THE CONSUL: A COMPARATIVE STUDY by JENNIFER GRAHAM STEPHENSON PAUL H. HOUGHTALING, COMMITTEE CHAIR SUSAN CURTIS FLEMING NIKOS A. PAPPAS STEPHEN V. PELES JONATHAN WHITAKER ELIZABETH AVERSA A DOCUMENT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the School of Music in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2016 Copyright Jennifer Graham Stephenson 2016 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT As art reflects life, so too does it hold a mirror to the lives of the people who create it. The turbulent events of the first decades of the twentieth century, including two World Wars and the rise of Italian Fascism and German Nazism in the 1920s and 30s, affected millions of lives across several continents. This document explores the ways in which Luigi Dallapiccola (1904– 1973) and Gian Carlo Menotti (1911–2007) voice their reactions to these events in their operas, Il Prigioniero (1948) and The Consul (1950). Italian composer Luigi Dallapiccola spent twenty months in internment during the First World War, and would be forced on several occasions to go into hiding during the Second World War. His opposition to Mussolini and the Italian Fascists, coupled with his quasi–obsession with internment and freedom, led to his composition of three works of “protest music,” of which Il Prigioniero is the second. Il Prigioniero tells the story of a prisoner of the Inquisition, his attempt at escape and eventual capture. Italian-American composer Gian Carlo Menotti emigrated to the United States in 1928, at age seventeen, and spent a great much of his time traveling and working in various countries. -

Il Quarto Padre Della Dodecafonia
Mario Ruffini, Il quarto padre della dodecafonia, in: «Caffè Michelangiolo», Rivista di discussione e cultura, Accademia degli Incamminati, IX, 2 (maggio- agosto 2004), Firenze, Pagliai Polistampa, 2004, Copertina, Frontespizio, Retrofrontespizio, pp. 4-12 In occasione del primo centenario della nascita di Luigi Dallapiccola (1904-2004), Caffè Michelangiolo ha chiesto a Mario Ruffini uno scritto commemorativo sul compositore e un bilancio delle celebrazioni Nel primo centenario della nascita di Luigi Dallapiccola (1904-2004) uno scritto commemorativo e alcune considerazioni IL QUARTO PADRE DELLA DODECAFONIA di Mario Ruffini Quando in tutto il mondo un personaggio viene ricordato in occasione del centenario della nascita, vuol dire che la sua opera è ormai un valore riconosciuto e condiviso della coscienza collettiva. Questo è il dato forse più rilevante delle celebrazioni dedicate alla figura di Luigi Dallapiccola. È utile pertanto ricordare le opere più significative del grande compositore e sottolineare gli aspetti peculiari del suo dettato etico e estetico. Due sono i capolavori che maggiormente caratterizzano Luigi Dallapiccola: la Trilogia, che percorre il primo periodo come una biografia (Canti di prigionia; Il Prigioniero; Canti di liberazione) e l’Ulisse che segna l’arrivo di tutto il percorso. Negli scritti giovanili Dallapiccola ricorda il periodo di internamento a Graz, quando l’assidua frequentazione del Teatro dell’Opera lo portò a una profonda conoscenza delle opere di Richard Wagner, di cui il quattordicenne istriano dichiara
