New perspectives on the contemporary repertoire for guitar. Tenebrism<\/i>: the Guitar of the \"Noche Oscura\" from Manuel de Falla to Angelo Gilardino.\n <\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

With the composition, in 1920, of the Homenaje pour le tombeau de Claude Debussy<\/i>, Manuel de Falla indicated a new path for the modern guitar. Deeply inspired by the dark essence of the Andalusian traditional cante jondo<\/i>, de Falla established an innovative compositional current -antithetical to the entertaining classical guitar of the 19th century – based on a new poetic: the guitar is an instrument with duende<\/i>, and its deep essence is being an instrument of the night, the night of the soul.
In the following decades, few composers dedicated music to the guitar with this perspective. From the non-guitarists, such as Ohana, Britten, Petrassi, Martin, to the guitarist-composers, like Dodgson, Bogdanovich, and, most of all, Angelo Gilardino, the world-renowned guitarist-composer who dedicated his whole production to this new poetic, that he labeled “tenebrism.” This research is a journey from \u00a0Falla’s cante jondo<\/i> evocation to the so-called poetic of the shadow <\/i>by Angelo Gilardino.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Bellucci was one of the most illustrious citizens in the history of the city of Manfredonia (Apulia). He was a composer, historian, and lawyer and worked in several southern Italy locations, leaving many musical compositions, most of which are still unpublished.
The book is configured as a monography that, by deeply analyzing and rewriting the biographical sketch of Bellucci as a composer – specifically through the analysis of manuscripts and printed editions of twelve romances (art songs) for voice and piano – contextualizes the author and his production in the complex landscape of nineteenth-century art song.
The book includes a CD featuring seven romances, performed by soprano Elisa Ramon and pianist David Osellame, representing the world premiere recording of Bellucci\u2019s compositions.
The publication is part of a much larger project sponsored by the F. Chopin Cultural Association in Manfredonia, aiming to disclose and promote the local musical heritage and make it widely accessible, especially outside the regional area.
The book is distributed for free (upon availability), and it is also available for consultation in the major conservatories, academies, and musical institutions in Italy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

“He brought life back to a microcosm of music\u00a0that is not only pride of Manfredonia, but also of the whole Apulia. I hope Alessio Olivieri\u2019s work will set an example for other scholars .”
