L'Orchestra di Auschwitz. Inchiesta su Alma Rosé
2023
Il libro è un'inchiesta sulla vita e il tempo di Alma Rosé (1906-1944), nipote di Gustav Mahler, debuttante e ragazza alla moda fra gli anni Venti e Trenta del secolo scorso, violinista il cui talento matura – paradossalmente – mentre l’ombra del nazismo si dispiega sull’Europa e infine direttrice dell’orchestra di Auschwitz. in un’epoca in cui la carriera del direttore d’orchestra era declinata soltanto al maschile. Giunta ad Auschwitz nell’estate 1943 e assegnata dapprima al Block degli esperimenti medici, Alma riuscì in breve tempo a diventare – nel piccolo mondo terribile del Lager – una specie di celebrità: ed è in quelle tenebre, d’altronde, che si svolge l’atto finale del dramma, oss…

The years after Italian unification (1861) were marked by five factors which determined development of opera. 1) The reaction of young writers and composers, close to «Scapigliatura», against the works of Giuseppe Verdi, who was considered to be the father of old Risorgimento opera with "Nabucco" and "I Lombardi alla prima crociata". 2) The search for the renewal of the drama against the formulas (opera by numbers) from the 1870s onwards under the influence of Wagner’s Musikdrama, thanks to Arrigo Boito and other composers from Milan to Bologna. 3) However, when Ivan Zajc was composing his trilogy, Italian opera was not influenced by patriotic or social features, which was otherwise the cas…

Salvadore Cammarano, Calisto Bassi e «l’orditura del libretto» di Alzira
2023
On August 12, 1845, Alzira, Giuseppe Verdi’s eighth opera, made its debut at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples. Against the composer’s own expecta-tions, the opera—to a libretto by Salvadore Cammarano based on Vol-taire—proved a failure, getting only about 20 performances. Even subse-quent stagings (13 between 1845 and 1858) met with lukewarm reception. A year after the first performance, on August 17, 1846, Calisto Bassi, an experienced librettist and translator, sent some comments on the libretto and proposals for improvements to the publisher Tito Ricordi. In this con-tribution, I aim to discuss this hitherto unpublished letter as well as to re-flect on the dramaturgy of this opera and the …

Vjera Katalinić: glazbeni izvori i jedinstvo europske kulture / Vjera Katalinić: Musical Sources and the Unity of European Culture
2020
The generation to which Vjera Katalinic belongs is that of those born about ten years after the end of the Second World War. It is the generation of young people who grew up in Zagreb, who through no fault of their own were obliged to pay for the faults of the fascist Ante Pavelić. Up until 1990, one must remember, Croatia was under ‘special surveillance’. Any proposal for change coming from this republic kindled the fear of a nationalist reflux, the worst syndrome for the Federation of Yugoslavia. The article analyses the career of Katalinic from the 1980s to her jubilee in 2020, and emphasises the outcomes from the time of her charge as director of the Institute of Musicological Research …
