  • 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.

  • The Second Edition of the MITO Settembremusica Music Festival Promises to Be Even Stronger and More Broad-Based Than the Boldly Pioneering First Edition
    The second edition of the MITO SettembreMusica music festival promises to be even stronger and more broad-based than the boldly pioneering first edition. That edition came to be thanks to streamlined decision-making and was lauded as a success. For anyone who failed to realize the festival’s extraordinary potential, MITO SettembreMusica 2007 turned out to be the unarmed prophet of the grand season marked by the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy and Expo 2015. Eschewing timidity and limitation, this called for thinking big, which inevitably led to planning beyond mere municipal confines. Thus, MITO SettembreMusica comprises in a single dream, in a single sound, the cities of Torino and Milano, and infects smaller outlying cities, such as Alessandria, Bergamo, Bollate, Bose di Magnano, Cremona, Lecco, Moncalieri, Monza, Morbegno, Novi Ligure, Pavia, Rivoli, Susa, Venaria. Indeed, the first edition of MITO SettembreMusica exceeded everyone’s expectations, also in terms of the balance and blending of the two main host cities’ capacities. Beyond the exploitation of local characteristics, combining the energy of cities leads to unpredictable outcomes. The experience of MITO SettembreMusica has given shape to projects, ideas and aims that had been circulating for years, and which had gone unfulfilled. Today we can speak freely of new and lasting bonds created between service companies, banks, symmetric cooperation among the events of 2011 and 2015, as well as other opportunities that are useful for our two communities, now enhanced by the upcoming activation of high-speed connections. But before MITO SettembreMusica became a stellar reality traveling at even higher speed, in the breath of its very first edition, attitudes and points of view were not so natural.

  • Foto-Musica” for Berkeley and Stanford (Lectures on January 2007)
    “Foto-musica” for Berkeley and Stanford (lectures on January 2007) by Riccardo Piacentini 1. I want to start – telling you about my “foto-musica con foto- suoni”® and also the voice of Tiziana – with two pieces of Luciano Berio and Cathy Berberian. I am sure I do not have to spend many words on these two leading actors of the Italian voice in last sixty years. Just I would like to remember that in Sixties and Seven- ties they were very active together, for some year also as wife and husband. Nevertheless the principal reason of this choice stays in the pieces we will go to perform: Quattro canzoni popolari by Berio and Stripsody by Berberian. Three of the Four popular songs were written in 1947, when Berio was twenty-two; the fourth one, that is number three in the series, was added just for the publication in 1975. What is the matter? These songs are, after the Four songs on ancient Neapolitan texts composed in 1925 by Berio’s teacher Giorgio Federico Ghedini, the first example in Italy of a creative elaboration of “similar-popular melodies”. In other terms this melodies are not originally popular, but expressly written by the composer. This means that the voice has: 1) to pronounce on dialectal languages (in this case from Sicily and Liguria), 2) to confront traditional belcanto with popular attitudes in singing, 3) to act according to a not opera standard. For these three reasons, popular attitudes translated in cultured music produced one of the most interesting change in the Italian classical vocal tradition and opening ears and minds in several composers.

    An introduction to “foto-musica con foto-suoni” Index p. 2 Character p. 5 Music of the sunrise (1st CD) p. 8 Air conditioning (2nd CD) p. 12 Missed trains (3rd CD) p. 16 Mine my mine (4th CD) p. 20 Music for Venaria Reale Palace (5th CD) 2 iccardo Piacentini, Museum spaces and “foto-suoni” R The following pages sketch out a deliberately schematic map of the five creations of “foto-musica con foto-suoni”® [music-photos with sound-photos] for soundtracks for museums which I produced with Tiziana Scandaletti between 1999 and 2004, and in four out of five cases also with Sandro Cappelletto, on commissions from three institutes: The Italian Photography Foundation (twice), The Province of Turin (twice) and the Piedmont Region (once). Each production of “foto-musica con foto-suoni”® referred to in the map corresponds to a CD, that was requested and adopted as a museum soundtrack. From the first part of the Musiche dell’aurora we have drawn a sixth CD, attached to the score of Shahar and published by Edizioni Curci of Milan in 1999; likewise from the Arie condizionate, again with Tiziana, we have drawn one of the sections of another CD, the seventh, published on the Stradivarius label with the title La voce contemporanea in Italia – vol. I (2005). In all the 5 + 2 cases we have highlighted: a) the applicative character requested by the client and by the target of the particular exhibition or individual museum and b) the relationship between space and sound – the latter understood in its many and varied aspects, including that of the “foto-suono” (a sound photograph of an environmental context which, originally at least, does not necessarily pertain to the universe of music) and projected in the direction of music rather than of cinematographic special effects –, from which there follow c) a number of questions, or pre-positions in interrogative form.

  • 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.. .). Other selection factors included: score availability;

    Massimiliano Génot Massimiliano Génot lives in Torino (Italy), where he gained his piano diploma at the age of sixteen, obtaining the highest possible grade at the “G. Verdi” Conservatoire under Gianni Sartorio. Although continuing to specialise in the piano, he also took a diploma in composition under the tuition of Gilberto Bosco and Riccardo Piacentini and concluded his classical studies, again with maximum grades. After being awarded the Diploma di Eccellenza upon completing a first specialisation course with Aldo Ciccolini at the Lorenzo Perosi Academy in Biella, he was admitted to the Higher Conservatoire in Geneva, where he continued his studies under Maria Tipo and gained the Premier Prix de Virtuosité , with a distinction. After obtaining the Diploma di Concertismo at the Santa Cecilia Music Foundation in Portogruaro with Piero Rattalino, he completed his training by following master classes at the Imola Academy, in particular the piano courses of Lazar Berman and those in performance history and theory under Piero Rattalino, with whom he also began researches into the historical development of piano technique. These studies led to the first ever recording of Carl Czerny’s School of Velocity op. 299 using the original metronome markings, paired with the Etudes op. 6 by Franz Liszt (Phoenix Classics). The CD was warmly received by the critics, winning several prizes and awards. Génot has gained prizes in numerous Italian and international competitions, including the 1994 Ferruccio Busoni Competition in Bolzano, and is engaged

    Pink Songs A Duo Alterno's project with contemporary music in a female good mood Duo Alterno Tiziana Scandaletti soprano Riccardo Piacentini piano and foto-songs A new concert program created by Duo Alterno on the twentieth anniversary of its musical career, featuring “foto-suoni” and images connecting them to the voice-piano repertoire of the Italian contemporary composers collected over a hundred tours in fifty countries. Among the contemporary composers, there are many women composers, such as Roberta Vacca from Rome, Sonia Bo and Rossella Spinosa from Milan, Teresa Procaccini from Foggia, Marcella Pavia, born in Argentina, but living in Italy. And there are also two very amusing pieces by the unforgettable Cathy Berberian and, finally, one timeless work by John Cage for voice and closed piano, where the female presence is represented by a “beautiful widow of eighteen springs” on Joyce's texts. Four Foto-Songs recorded by the Duo Alterno across the world and “com-posed” by Riccardo are merged in the concert program through a precise fil rouge: they come from different metropolitan streets of the world, with a lot of female voices, from Melbourne and Istanbul (nocturnal sounds and didgeridoo), from Addis Abeba and São Paulo do Brasil (children), from San Francisco and Portland (cable cars and tin drums), from Beijing and Bangkok (buskers and popular markets)... all in a musically stunning reportage of soundscapes caught in five continents. Roberta Vacca Versi di gatti (2003, vers. 2018) for mewing voice and piano (text freely extracted from “La gatomaquia” by Lope de Vega) Dedicated to the Duo Alterno Cathy Berberian Morsicathy (1969) for piano, morse code and mosquito Stripsody (1966) for voice and comic strips by Roberto Zamarin Riccardo Piacentini (1958) FOTO-SONGS from the streets of the world (2011/16) - Foto-song 1.
