Who can today, like Franco Donatoni, conciliate the quality of craftsmanship with the originality of a sophisticated imaginary world?
There are not so many composers who forged a so original tool (forma a pannelli), who speech a language so detailed, who created a poetic territory so unmistakable to be immediately recognizable.
Moreover his univers has the gift of making happy perfomers because of his concret, near and evident aspect. The Franco Donatoni's long perseverance seems having brought him toward liberty and, once more, toward spontaneity: happy privilege, if any others may exist, this apparent easiness that gives to others to others such deep resources stubbornly reached and so seducing!
Every composer might be jealous of this extraordinary ability of realizing illusion.Pierre Boulez
Franco Donatoni his one of the most influential Italian composer of the last century. The testimonial in his honor during the "26° Rassegna di Nuova Musica" is articulated in two "soirée" (17&18 November 2008). It's about the most important tribute dedicated to this peculiar figure of the contemporary musical panorama, disappeared in 2000, on August 17th.
A music that has gained the ideal synthesis of Schoenberg and Stravinsky speculative thoughts, endowed with a big rhythmic strength and inspired research that capture the listener. A music that excavates deeply and that, even if rised from 50' & 60' avant-garde ashes, is never intellectualistic. On the contrary, his communicative ability seduces even the less used listener to recent musical itineraries. He is a great teacher figure: to his school passed a lot of musician, such as Giuseppe Sinopoli and Esa-Pekka Salonen.
Unfortunately I've recorded only the second "soirée" of 18Nov2008 (of course all comments and analysis are in Italian, but are on separate tracks)
