The icy face of Naples – a lecture about avant-gard piano music in Naples

Contributions by: Lorenzo Pone, Marta Columbro, Patrizio Marrone, Gaetano Panariello and Enrico Massa

Published in five episodes as an online format by the prestigious avant-gard review D.A.T., the article The icy face of Naples, written by Lorenzo Pone in 2018, focuses on several generations of composers who, from the 1970s to the first two decades of the new century dedicated to the piano a consistent amount of their production. From the obscure and enigmatic figure of Luciano Cilio, a pioneer active between 1950 and 1983, to the very proactive pianist-composer Girolamo De Simone, to Gabriele Montagano presented by Giacinto Scelsi as his own heir, the renowned composer Enrico Renna, the former Director of the historical Conservatory of Naples Patrizio Marrone and his established colleagues Luciano Tomei and Gaetano Panariello, to the new generaions including some of the avant-gard group puntOorg members such as Chiara Mallozzi and Bernardo Sannino and other remarkable personalities of the Neapolitan music scene as Claudio Righetti, Cosimo Abbate, Manuel Zito, Enzo Caterino and Carlo Schiano. Fifty years of piano music revealed, commented and analysed by Lorenzo Pone in his long article-essay, which will re-appear in October 2019 as a paper format and in its whole integrity on D.A.T. in English language.

A special thanks goes to D.A.T. Director and Coordinator Antonio Mastrogiacomo and the whole Scientific Committee.

Prémiére of Lorenzo Pone Trois Danses, for string orchestra

Nathan Amaral, violin
Tomas Soares, violin
Felipe Prazeres, violin
Marco Cato, viola
Matheus Cecatto, cello
Rodrigo Favaro, double bass
Eduardo Antonello, harpsichord and conductor

Lorenzo PoneTrois Danses, for string orchestra, got its world prémiére because of the generosity of Raphael Fonseca and the three ladies to whom the set is dedicated, Rosemarie Klin Vega, Maria Theresa De Lamare and Beatriz Kunning. Composed in 2017, the three shorts are a typical example of musique d’occasion, written and conceived as a gift, as a friendly hommage. Entitled, in the order, Sarabande, Cortège et Air de danse, the three pieces display a variety of attitudes and a taste for the typically French custum called “à la maniére de…“. The Sarabande is a meditative and caressful piece, where the harmony creates a suspended atmosphere; Cortège, or Française, is a tribute to the style of J. S. Bach; the final Air de danse, or Valse, it’s a varied waltz, where the echoes of Satie seem to hang hand by hand with the south-american languages and the film music.

prémiére of Lorenzo Pone Entre l’ombre et la lumière, for cello and piano

Virginia Cimmino, soprano
Marta Masini, flute
Maria Laskowska, violin
Enzo Caterino, cello
Gennaro Musella, piano

Penned in Paris in 2011 and recently revised in London, Entre l’ombre et la lumière is a homage to French composer Georges Auric. The prémiére will be hold by former Berliner Symphoniker cellist Enzo Caterino and distinguished pianist Gennaro Musella, member of Pragma Piano Trio. The title, literally “between shadow and light” refers to the atmosphere of the piece, continuously tensed between violence and lyricism. The work will be performed within a program also featuring other Neapolitan composers as Bernardo Sannino and Enzo Caterino himself.
