Story
La presente trasmissione radiofonica in ricordo di Marc Blitzstein nacque dal programma di ICAMus Pagine di musica americana (convegno, seminari, concerti), che nel 2005 curai per l’Università di Firenze, e particolarmente dal mio seminario Marc Blitzstein a 100 anni. Musica e controversie ideologiche negli Stati Uniti del Novecento. Ricorreva quell’anno il centenario della nascita di Marc Blitzstein (1905-1964) e la ricorrenza porse l’occasione per dedicarsi alla riscoperta di un compositore americano di grande originalità. Fanciullo prodigio di famiglia agiata, durante gli anni Venti...

Story
Pensieri urbani è un ciclo sulle filosofie, sulle città e sul loro dialogo. Una filosofia nell’urbe, perché la filosofia presuppone da sempre una comunità di ricerca, un’agorà a cui rivolgersi e in cui svilupparsi. Il programma ruota intorno all’idea che l’esercizio della filosofia sia in grado di creare le condizioni per un diverso modo di vivere, personale e collettivo. Una filosofia vissuta e praticata, non intesa come puramente intellettuale ma come scelta di un modo di esistere nel mondo. Ci imbarchiamo alla scoperta delle città e dei luoghi significativi per lo sviluppo del...

Curato da Simone Bensi, Roberto Neri, Elisabetta Sepe e Alberto Batisti, questo piccolo ciclo in quattro puntate è stato realizzato dal Conservatorio Cherubini di Firenze in collaborazione con Rete Toscana Classica. Il titolo del ciclo è stato preso a prestito dal celebre trattato omonimo cinquecentesco di Vincenzo Galilei, padre del grande fondatore della scienza moderna. Alcuni fra i migliori allievi del Conservatorio fiorentino interpretano pagine di importanti autori toscani presenti nel prezioso patrimonio musicale della Biblioteca del Cherubini, al fine di far conoscere protagonisti ...

Story
Nel centenario della morte di Ferruccio Busoni, quattro incontri per approfondire il teatro musicale del compositore empolese, ancora oggi poco conosciuto e in attesa del dovuto riconoscimento. Parte centrale della sua estetica e del suo impegno creativo, Busoni manifestò sempre un grande amore per l’opera e per i due autori, a suo giudizio, massimi rappresentanti di questo genere musicale: Mozart (per lui “genio a metà latino”) e Verdi. Seppure basate su libretti tedeschi, scritti dal compositore stesso, queste opere rappresentano anche il massimo tentativo di Busoni nel ...

In questo ciclo, andato in onda per la prima volta nel lontano marzo 2004, Michele Manzotti ci guidava alla scoperta dei King’s Singers. Il celebre gruppo vocale a cappella è nato nel 1968 ed è diventato rapidamente uno dei più prestigiosi degli ultimi decenni. Formato da due controtenori, un tenore, due baritoni e un basso, il sestetto inglese ha contribuito a diffondere in tutto il mondo l’amore per il madrigale cinquecentesco ma anche per i linguaggi polifonici più recenti, spingendosi a originali trascrizioni colte di classici della musica leggera. Il ciclo esplora nell’arco di ...

Si intitola Cultore del passato, divinatore dell’avvenire. Un ritratto di Ferruccio Busoni questo ciclo, realizzato da Francesco Dilaghi nel 2016 per il 150esimo anniversario della nascita del compositore empolese, che trasmettiamo nuovamente del centenario della morte. Ferruccio Busoni fu un musicista e un intellettuale di prima grandezza nel panorama pur ricchissimo della cultura europea a cavallo tra Otto e Novecento. Eppure la sua figura ha sempre affascinato e conquistato i musicisti e i musicologi più del grande pubblico dei concerti e dei dischi: infatti, a distanza ormai di un ...

Nel 2009 Alberto Cantù pubblicava David Oistrakh – Lo splendore della coerenza per l’editore Zecchini. Quello stesso anno curava questo ciclo per Rete Toscana Classica. L’occasione era il 101esimo anniversario della nascita del musicista russo. Nell’arco di dodici puntate, ognuna delle quali regala ascolti preziosi e rari, Cantù ripercorre la carriera di questo protagonista assoluto del violino del Novecento. Una parabola che si snoda tra la Rivoluzione d’ottobre e il Disgelo. Una vita tra arte e politica, scandita da tournée in cui il regime sovietico esibisce Oistrakh come ...

Story
È dedicato agli scritti sulla musica di Claude Debussy il ciclo che Francesco Dilaghi ha curato nel 2018 a cento anni dalla morte del musicista francese. Il titolo scelto in origine – Il bisogno singolare quanto inutile di dare la mia opinione – è rubato allo stesso Debussy, che oltre a essere un compositore è stato un critico tanto severo quanto irriverente. Conversando con il suo alter ego immaginario – Monsieur Croche – Debussy rivela ai suoi lettori passioni e insofferenze. Considerazioni sostenute da una capacità di analisi che si esercita con egual lucidità sul passato e sul...

Le avventure di Monsieur Croche è il titolo scelto in origine per il ciclo che, nel 2012, Alberto Batisti e Luca Berni hanno dedicato a Claude Debussy a 150 anni dalla nascita. Monsieur Croche è il nome scelto dal musicista per il suo alter ego, definito “antidilettante”. Con pochi tratti ironici, Debussy lo/si descriveva così su “La Revue blanche” il 1 luglio 1901: “Aveva un volto asciutto e piccolo, e gesti visibilmente allenati a sostenere discussioni metafisiche (…). Parlava con voce sommessa, non rideva mai, a volte sottolineava la conversazione con un sorriso muto che ...

Dante in musica

Story
La fortuna di Dante coi musicisti ha stentato a mostrarsi. Fino al Cinquecento il paradigma indiscusso della poesia destinata alle intonazioni musicali fu quello rappresentato da Petrarca col Canzoniere. Questo primato della poesia lirica su quella epica fu quasi insormontabile. Forse perché il pluristilismo di Dante destava imbarazzi estetici ai canoni classicistici del Rinascimento. Fu Vincenzo Galilei, padre del grande scienziato, il primo musico a indirizzare il proprio interesse al verso di Dante. Capaci di suscitare emozioni drammatiche, i versi danteschi si rivelarono adatti a un nuovo...

Trasmesso nel 2007, in occasione del 70esimo anniversario dalla morte, questo ciclo ricostruisce la figura di Maurice Ravel attraverso le voci di poeti, amici e interpreti. Sedici puntate per rendere omaggio a uno dei grandi della musica del Novecento, ormai un classico. Ma anche per colmare il silenzio che, in Italia, avvolge ancora buona parte della sua produzione. Ravel non è soltanto lo straordinario creatore di Bolerò, di Daphnis et Chloé, di Ma Mère l’Oye, de L’Enfant et les sortilèges o l’orchestratore dei Quadri di un’Esposizione di Modest Musorgskij. Quante volte nei ...

Story
Francesco Dilaghi traccia un percorso, necessariamente antologico, sulla forma del concerto per pianoforte e orchestra, da Bach a Bartók. Qual’è l’etimologia della parola “concerto”: aspra contesa o intreccio pacifico? Vivace contrapposizione o accordo armonioso? Entrambe sono possibili, ed è forse proprio questa la ragione del successo di questo genere strumentale in cui lo strumento a tastiera dialoga con la multiforme compagine dell’orchestra dai mille diversi aspetti. Una forma che ha conosciuto una crescente fortuna soprattutto tra la fine del ‘700 e tutto il secolo ...

Sergej Rachmaninov è senza dubbio un autore molto noto e amato dal grande pubblico. Ma, a ben vedere, la sua fama – almeno nel nostro paese – è legata soprattutto alle opere che hanno per protagonista il pianoforte, sia da solo che con orchestra. È noto infatti che Rachmaninoff è stato uno dei maggiori pianisti – per qualcuno il più grande – del primo Novecento. Della sua arte interpretativa ci resta oggi una significativa testimonianza discografica. Ma, senza nulla togliere ai suoi capolavori destinati al pianoforte, la sua personalità di musicista risulta decisamente più ampia...

And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

The Nevermore Leaderboards competition has gathered more attention than perhaps in any era prior, with gods getting both directly and indirectly involved to see who will eventually come out on top. Jake, who has so far been performing above all expectations, enters his final Challenge Dungeon before it’s time to meet up with his party once more. Together, they’ll make a final push to try and climb as many floors as possible before time is up and, hopefully, in the end, find their names atop the Nevermore Leaderboards.

It’s a beautiful day in Newport, Rhode Island, when Phoebe Stone arrives at the grand Cornwall Inn wearing a green dress and gold heels, not a bag in sight, alone. She's immediately mistaken by everyone in the lobby for one of the wedding people, but she’s actually the only guest at the Cornwall who isn’t here for the big event. Phoebe is here because she’s dreamed of coming for years—she hoped to shuck oysters and take sunset sails with her husband, only now she’s here without him, at rock bottom, and determined to have one last decadent splurge on herself.

A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.
