  • Ottorino Respighi, Musicista Geniale Ed Estroverso a 130 Anni Dalla Nascita
    Ottorino Respighi, musicista geniale ed estroverso a 130 anni dalla nascita. di Giuseppe Testa Ottorino Respighi è, tra i compositori italiani del secolo scorso, quello che trovò diffusione e fama internazionale sin dall’inizio della sua carriera. E’ ricordato soprattutto per i tre poemi sinfonici romani, capolavori della letteratura sinfonica del ‘900 italiano, ma è anche stato un apprezzato musicologo. Respighi nasce a Bologna il 9 luglio 1879, inizia gli studi del pianoforte e del violino con il padre Giuseppe, studi che continua al liceo musicale di Bologna, dove è allievo di F. Sarti per il violino e la viola, C. Dall’Olio per il contrappunto e la fuga, L. Torchi e di G. Martucci per la composizione. E’ proprio Martucci che lo interessa alle forme sinfoniche e cameristiche dei romantici tedeschi, sino ad allora poco praticate in Italia. Si Diploma in violino nel 1899 e in composizione nel 1901 al liceo musicale di Bologna. Subito dopo si trasferisce in Russia dove ricopre il posto di prima viola dell’orchestra del Teatro Imperiale a San Pietroburgo, studiando per cinque mesi con Nikolaj Rimskij-Korsakov con cui può approfondire lo studio della sinfonia e del poema sinfonico, evidenziando la tendenza al descrittivismo e l’abilità nel trattamento dell’orchestra. Nel 1902 è accompagnatore in una scuola di canto a Berlino, dove conosce Ferruccio Busoni ed ha modo di studiare con Max Bruch. Ma la sua attività principale fino al 1908 è quella di violista, solo dopo si dedica alla composizione. Nel 1911 torna in Italia per sostituire il suo maestro L.

  • L'opera Italiana Del Novecento
    PIERO MIOLI L'OPERA ITALIANA DEL NOVECENTO MANZONI MILANO, 2018 PREMESSA Cento anni: così Giuseppe Rovani volle intitolare il suo grande romanzo storico-ciclico, narrando vicende comprese fra il 1750 e il 1849 e fra l’altro largheggiando di curiose situazioni e riflessioni musicali (l’edizione definitiva del libro è del 1868-69); e così dovrebbe pur chiamarsi questo sommario panorama del '900 teatro-musicale italiano, nonostante tutti gli imbarazzi che presiedono a tali quadrature cronologiche e tutti i rischi che esso corre fornendo forse più dati che idee. Cent’anni, un secolo, un lungo segmento temporale tutto sommato finito da poco: ma se la fine di questo fatidico '900 si trova a sfumare nell’inizio del secolo seguente, il '100 del Duemila che è in corso, altrettanto si deve riconoscere oggi e si sarà asserito allora del suo inizio sfumato dalla fine del secolo precedente. Nell’impossibilità, dunque, di fissare un avvio riferibile a un preciso fattore di carattere sociale, civile, culturale, per non dire artistico e musicale, sarà provvedimento modesto e rassegnato ma almeno utile e chiaro quello che accetta di dare l'inizio al semplicissimo 1901 e la fine all'altrettanto schietto 2000, permettendosi il credibile lusso di procedere qualche anno ancora. L’imbarazzo non viene a mancare, s’intende, né s’abbassa il rischio, ma da parte sua, almeno, la matematica non ammette né repliche né sfumature. Prima di pervenire al corpo del discorso diacronico, descrittivo, impostato insomma come una giusta suddivisione in periodi, è però sembrato bene fornire degli schizzi storico-culturali che sappiano inquadrare degnamente, si spera, le fasi storiche del genere, un genere significativo ma assai esigente come il teatro d’opera italiano: dunque il diverso “panorama” sincronico promesso dall’indice comprende gli elementi generali, alcuni fenomeni particolari, i luoghi teatrali nel loro complesso e qualche teatro in vista più di altri, ovviamente e principalmente le prime culle della nuova produzione operistica.

  • Respighi Ottorino
    RESPIGHI OTTORINO Compositore e strumentista italiano (Bologna 9 VI 1879 - Roma 18 IV 1936) 1 Nato da una famiglia di musicisti (il nonno Tommaso era organista del duomo di Fidenza) fu avviato alla musica dal padre, ottimo pianista e didatta. Iscritto al liceo musicale di Bologna (1891), studiò violino con F. Sarti, diplomandosi nel 1899, e contemporaneamente seguì le lezioni di contrappunto e fuga di C. Dall'Olio e di composizione di L. Torchi e G. Martucci. Nel 1900 fu a Pietroburgo, come orchestrale nella stagione operistica italiana dei teatri imperiali e conobbe Rimskij-Korsakov dal quale ebbe varie lezioni di composizione rimaste essenziali (come dichiarò lo stesso Respighi) per la sua formazione artistica. Tornato a Bologna, si diplomò in composizione nel 1901. L'anno dopo tornò in Russia come prima viola dell'Opera di Pietroburgo e vi rimase nove mesi, prendendo contatto con l'ambiente artistico che faceva capo ad A. Benois (il figlio Nicola sarà poi uno degli scenografi più cari a Respighi). Nel 1903 ritornò in Italia e l'anno dopo fu eseguita dal pianista F. Ivaldi a Bologna, sotto la direzione di B. Mugellini, la sua Fantasia in Sol minore per pianoforte ed orchestra che ottenne notevole successo. Nel 1905 la sua opera Re Enzo fu rappresentata dagli studenti dell'università di Bologna ed in quello stesso anno Respighi entrò come viola nel quintetto Mugellini per il quale compose il Quintetto in Fa. Nel 1908 R. Ferrari diresse al Metropolitan di New York il Notturno per orchestra e A. Nikish, a Berlino, la sua trascrizione per orchestra del Lamento di Arianna di Monteverdi.

  • 1977, 1978 Conversations with Elsa Respighi
    ADRIANO'S CONVERSATIONS WITH ELSA RESPIGHI Adriano with Elsa Respighi (Rome, May 23, 1979) Photo by Reto Gaugenrieder ADRIANO: I had made Elsa Respighi's acquaintance in 1977. This, my greatest friendship, with one of the most interesting women of musical Italy, lasted until Elsa's death in 1996. It embraced considerable correspondence and several personal visits to Elsa's house in Rome, and included an unforgettable Venetian holiday in 1978, preceding the Respighi Centenary for which I had conceived a comprehensive Respighi exhibition. This was held with great success, in conjunction with the International Lucerne Music Festival. Amongst various tape conversations with Elsa, I have transcribed and translated, from the Italian, two of the most important. They offer an interesting insight into a composer of which too little has been written over the fifty years after his death. Only his widow could talk with such authority about him. FIRST CONVERSATION (Rome, September 12th, 1977) ADRIANO: You are extremely busy preparing for the Respighi Centenary to be celebrated in 1979. What will be the most important celebratory events in Italy? ELSA: In Italy, many diverse programs are being prepared, both in the concert and the operatic domains. Casa Ricordi has issued a new catalogue of all available scores that also includes those works edited by other publishers, like Universal, Bote & Bock etc. A: Some of Respighi's operas will also be performed? E: I hope so. There is much interest in La campana sommersa, which has recently been broadcast by RAI. This opera will also find its way to some theatres.
