Respighi and beyond: Guildhall School continues its exploration of his underrated musical legacy
[…] After his return he spent quite some time in German, where he may have studied with Max Bruch. Whether he did or not, Germany was a big influence on Respighi's musical style. He died in 1936, but his relationship with the Fascist government seems to have been somewhat equivocal, he was honoured by the government in 1932 but completed no new compositions after 1933. During the post-War period he was grouped with other nationalist Italian composers, Malipiero, Ildebrando Pizzetti, and Pietro Mascagni, who were all regarded with suspicion.The full season of events is listed on the Guildhall School's website.

There are currently around 400 librettos, so if you are looking for Domenico Monleone's Cavalleria Rusticana (premiered in Amsterdam in 1907) then look no further. And there are editorial plans to include a further 700 librettos next year. The focus is on opera from the age of Verdi and after - first generation of Verismo composers (e.g, Mascagni, Leoncavallo, Giordano), the older generation of modernist composers (e.g., Zandonai, Alfano), and the Generazione dell’Ottanta (e.g., Pizzetti, Malipiero). But they want to include all the librettos that they can provide, and where possible there will be a synopsis and guidance notes. Currently the website is only in Italian, but that […]
