However, the diaries of the tenor VERDI Francesco Albanese, kept at the Teatro Comunale, Piacenza, Italy, indicate that sessions began on 15th September 1953. Since the Turin Radio Symphony (Orchestra Sinfonica di Torino della RAI), which had been loaned by RAI to CETRA, resumed its regular broadcasts between 20th September and the end of the month, it is likely that the La Traviata CETRA Traviata sessions were concluded on September 19.

  • Composers Mascagni and Leoncavallo Biography
    Cavalleria Rusticana Composer Biography: Pietro Mascagni Mascagni was an Italian composer born in Livorno on December 7, 1863. His father was a baker and dreamed of a career as a lawyer for his son, but following the good reception obtained by Mascagni’s first compositions was persuaded to allow him to study music at the Milan Conservatoire, where his teachers included Amilcare Ponchielli and Michele Saladino, and where he shared a furnished room with his fellow-student Giacomo Puccini. His first compositions won him financial support to study at the Milan Conservatory. He was of a rebellious nature and intolerant of discipline, and in 1885 he left the Conservatoire to join a modest operetta company as conductor. He became part of the Compagnia Maresca and, together with his future wife, Lina Carbognani, settled in Cerignola (Apulia) in 1886, where he formed a symphony orchestra. Here Mascagni composed at a single stroke, in only two months, the one-act opera Cavalleria rusticana, based on the short story by Verga, which was to win him the first prize in the Second Sonzogno Competition for new operas. The innovative strength of the opera and the resounding worldwide success which followed its first performance (1890, Teatro Costanzi, Rome) marked the beginning of an artistic life rich in achievements and satisfactions, both as composer and as conductor. He became increasingly prominent as a conductor and in 1892 conducted his opera I Rantzau around Europe. Further successes included Amica (1905) and Isabeau (1911), alongside such failures as Le maschere (1901). In 1915 he experimented with writing for cinema in Rapsodia satanicawith Nino Oxilia.

  • Pietro Mascagni Scheda Biografica CRONOLOGICA 7 Dicembre 1863
    Pietro Mascagni Scheda biografica CRONOLOGICA 7 dicembre 1863 nasce a Livorno in Piazza delle Erbe, l’attuale Piazza Cavallotti. Il padre, Domenico, di professione fornaio, era originario di San Miniato al Tedesco, la madre, Emilia Reboa, livornese. La casa natale, non più esistente, occupava il perimetro dove è stato costruito il palazzo sede odierna di una banca. 8 ottobre 1873 muore la madre, lasciando orfano Pietro ed i fratelli (Francesco, il maggiore, Carlo, Elvira e Paolo). Di lì a poco, Pietro inizia a frequentare il Ginnasio ed anche le lezioni di Musica. La sua prima “platea” è quella della chiesa di San Benedetto, nell’attuale Piazza XX Settembre, sul cui organo si esercita e suona musiche liturgiche. 1 aprile 1875 Alfredo Soffedini (1854 – 1923), livornese diplomato al conservatorio di Milano, fonda a Livorno l’Istituto Musicale Livornese che, a partire dall’anno successivo, sarà frequentato da Pietro Mascagni. Nel 1879 l’istituto sarà dedicato al musicista Luigi Cherubini. 1878 – 1880 Pietro Mascagni inizia a comporre. La prima composizione conosciuta è la romanza Duolo eterno!, che dedica al padre in ricordo della madre. La figura materna sarà presente nella musica di Pietro Mascagni fino alla maturità. Le composizioni più rilevanti del periodo sono di carattere religioso (una Ave Maria, alcuni Kyrie, un Pater Noster etc.) dove già emerge con chiarezza l’amore di Mascagni per la voce umana. Pietro Mascagni, nondimeno, compone anche due sinfonie (Prima Sinfonia in FA magg. – recentemente ritrovata – e Seconda Sinfonia in FA magg.) e la cantata In filanda (terminata il 29 gennaio 1881). A testimonianza di una personalità musicale precocemente formata, è possibile affermare che la tonalità di FA magg.
