Pippo Delbono
PIPPO DELBONO BIOGRAPHY (*translated to English from Italian) Pippo Delbono, author, actor, director, is one of Italy’s most unconventional and distinctive theatre artists. He began his studies of dramatic art in a traditional school that he left in research for a new theatrical language. He decided to study the principles of eastern theatre, where is central a detailed and strict work of the actor on the body and on the voice, where theatre and dance meet and merge. At the beginning of the Eighties, he founded Pippo Delbono Company with whom he represented all his performances, from Il tempo degli assassini (1987) to La Menzogna (2008). They are not representations of theatrical texts but entire creations where the actors are part of a stable core that grows up through the time. The meeting with people coming from emarginated areas of society brings a turning in his poetical research. From this encounter came out Barboni (1997). Some of these actors, for example Bobò, a deaf-and-dumb person met in the mental hospital of Aversa after 45 years spent there, strengthened their work inside the company and are today a basic part of the experience. The performances - La rabbia , dedicated to Pasolini, Guerra, Esodo, Gente di plastica, Urlo, Il silenzio , Questo Buio Feroce and the other already mentioned- have been represented in more than 50 countries. The experience of Pippo Delbono Company has been hosted in a lot of different theatrical International festivals, between them Avignon Festival which welcomed the company three times, coproduced the performance Urlo and hosted “La Menzogna” , the last theatrical production, in July 2009. -

Music and History in Italian Film Melodrama, 1940-2010
Between Soundtrack and Performance: Music and History in Italian Film Melodrama, 1940-2010 By Marina Romani A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Barbara Spackman, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Linda Williams Professor Mia Fuller Summer 2015 Abstract Between Soundtrack and Performance: Music and History in Italian Film Melodrama, 1940-2010 by Marina Romani Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Barbara Spackman, Chair Melodrama manifests itself in a variety of forms – as a film and theatre practice, as a discursive category, as a mode of imagination. This dissertation discusses film melodrama in its visual, gestural, and aural manifestations. My focus is on the persistence of melodrama and the traces it leaves on post-World War II Italian cinema: from the Neorealist canon of the 1940s to works that engage with the psychological and physical, private, and collective traumas after the experience of a totalitarian regime (Cavani’s Il portiere di notte, 1974), to postmodern Viscontian experiments set in a 21st-century capitalist society (Guadagnino’s Io sono l’amore, 2009). The aural dimension is fundamental as an opening to the epistemology of each film. I pay particular attention to the presence of operatic music – as evoked directly or through semiotic displacement involving the film’s aesthetic and expressive figures – and I acknowledge the existence of a long legacy of practical and imaginative influences, infiltrations and borrowings between the screen and the operatic stage in the Italian cinematographic tradition. -
Sailing on Seas of Uncertainties: Late Style and Puccini's Struggle for Self
International Journal of Ageing and Later Life, 2008 3(1): 77Á95. # The Authors Sailing on seas of uncertainties: late style and Puccini’s struggle for self-renewal By AMIR COHEN-SHALEV Abstract The popularity of Puccini’s melodramatic operas, often derided by ‘‘serious’’ musicologists, has hindered a more rounded evaluation of his attempt at stylistic change. This paper offers a novel perspective of life- span creativedevelopment in order to move the discussion of Puccini beyond the dichotomy of popular versus high-brow culture. Tracing the aspects of gradual stylistic change that began in The Girl from the Golden West (1910) through the three operas of Il Trittico: Il Tabarro, Suor Angelica, and Gianni Schicchi (1918Á1919), the paper then focuses on Puccini’s last opera, Turandot (1926), as exemplifying a potential turn to a reflexive, philosophical style which is very different from the melodramatic, sentimentalist style generally associated with his work. In order to discuss this change as embodying a turn to late style, the paper identifies major stylistic shifts as well as underlying themes in the work of Puccini. The paper concludes by discussing the case of Puccini as a novel contribution to the discussion of lateness in art, until now reserved to a selected few ‘‘old Masters.’’ Keywords: Puccini, late style, life-span development, creativity. Amir Cohen-Shalev, Department of Gerontology, University of Haifa, Israel. 77 International Journal of Ageing and Later Life Beloved and popular, the operas of Giacomo Puccini have at the same time been derided by more ‘‘serious’’ musicologists as the product of a decadent, bourgeois society (Greenwald 1993). -

Kathryn Hausbeck Korgan, Ph.D. Examination Committee Chair Graduate College Dean Linda Lister, DMA. Examination Committee Member David Weiller, MM. Examination Committee Member Dean Gronemeier, DMA, JD. Examination Committee Member Joe Bynum, MFA. Graduate College Faculty Representative ii ABSTRACT This doctoral dissertation provides information on how to develop the young dramatic soprano, specifically through more concentrated focus on the breath. Proper breathing is considered the single most important skill a singer will learn, but its methodology continues to mystify multitudes of singers and voice teachers. Voice professionals often write treatises with a chapter or two devoted to breathing, whose explanations are extremely varied, complex or vague. Young dramatic sopranos, whose voices are unwieldy and take longer to develop are at a particular disadvantage for absorbing a solid vocal technique. First, a description, classification and brief history of the young dramatic soprano is discussed along with a retracing of breath methodologies relevant to the young dramatic soprano’s development. -

Nevertheless, when she was offered the opportunity to get a musical education, she accepted with enthusiasm and dedication. As a child she studied piano and choir singing. Some years later her music teachers encouraged her to approach Lyrical Singing. Since then she’s been constantly improving and taking care of her vocal talent, that was also incentive for her personal growth. She deeply believes in the uniqueness and fulfillment of every artistic journey, beyond common sense and standard rules. She obtained her Lyrical Singing Diploma - mezzosoprano - at the Conservatory of Music “G.Nicolini” in Piacenza. She graduated in foreign languages from the University of Pavia and obtained one Deutsch Institute Diploma and two Cambridge Certificates (PET, FCE). She speaks English, French and German, in addition to her native Italian. At the beginning of her career she sang in important philharmonic choirs: Verdi Choir in Milan, Maghini Choir and RAI National Orchestra in Turin, having the opportunity to work with R. -
Il Trittico 301
Recondite Harmony: Il Trittico 301 Recondite Harmony: the Operas of Puccini Chapter 12: Il Trittico: amore, dolore—e buonumore “Love and suffering were born with the world.” [L’amore e il dolore sono nati col mondo] Giacomo Puccini, letter to Luigi Illica, 8 Oct 19121 Puccini’s operatic triptych, Il Trittico, is comprised of the three one-act operas: Il tabarro, a story of illicit love; Suor Angelica, a tale of a nun’s suffering at the loss of her illegitimate child; and Gianni Schicchi, a dark comedy in which both love and loss are given a morbidly humorous twist. The Trittico2 was always intended by the composer to be performed in a single evening, and it will be treated as a tripartite entity in this chapter. The first two editions, from 1918 and 1919, group all three works together, which was at Puccini’s insistence. In an unpublished letter to Carlo Clausetti, dated 3 July 1918, the composer reveals how he clashed with publisher Tito Ricordi over this issue: There remained the question of the editions—that is, [Tito Ricordi] spoke of them immediately and pacified me by saying that they will publish the works together and separately. But I think that he was not truthful because the separated ones will never see the light of day. And what will happen with the enumeration? There will certainly not be two types of clichets [printing plates], one with numbers progressing through the three operas, and the other with numbers for each score, starting from number one. So, he deceived me.3 1 Eugenio Gara. -
