A representative Italian composer after the Second World War. Born in Venice, he is especially known for being at the intersection of Communist political ideology and contemporary music. While studying law at the University of Padua, he studied under Malipiero at the Venice Conservatory, and later studied under Maderna and Scherchen. Since the premiere of his Variations on a Series by Schoenberg, Op. 41 in Darmstadt, Germany in 1950, he has become known as a representative composer of postwar avant-garde music. Like his contemporary Boulez, many of his works use post-Webern series techniques, but the way he handles the lyrics conveys an Italian lyricism. Her representative works include Interrupted Song (1955-56) for soloist, chorus and orchestra, the opera Intolleranza (1960-61), Like Waves of Force and Light (1971) for soprano, piano and orchestra, the string quartet Fragment - Silence, Diotimae (1979), Prometeo (1983), based on the story of Prometheus from Greek mythology, There is No Way Forward, But We Must Go (1987), dedicated to the Russian film director Tarkovsky, and A Tombstone for Stefan (1989) for guitar and ensemble.

第二次世界大戦後のイタリアを代表する作曲家。ベネチア生まれ。とくに共産党の政治思想と現代音楽の接点にたったことで有名である。パドバ大学で法律を学ぶかたわらベネチア音楽院でマリピエロに師事、のちにマデルナとシェルヘンにつく。1950年ドイツのダルムシュタットで『シェーンベルクの作品41のセリーによる変奏曲』が初演されて以来、戦後前衛音楽の代表的作曲家として知られるようになった。同世代のブーレーズと同じくポスト・ウェーベルン的セリー技法を用いた作品が多いが、歌詞の処理にイタリアの叙情が感じられる。代表作に、独唱と合唱と管弦楽のための『中断された歌』(1955~56)、オペラ『イントレランツァ』(1960~61)、ソプラノとピアノと管弦楽のための『力と光の波のように』(1971)、弦楽四重奏曲『断章‐静寂、ディオティマヘ』(1979)、ギリシア神話のプロメテウスの物語をモチーフにした『プロメテオ』(1983)、ロシアの映画監督タルコフスキーに捧げられた『進むべき道はない、だが進まなくてはならない』(1987)、ギターと合奏のための『ステファンのための墓石』(1989)などがある。 [細川周平] [参照項目] | | | | | | | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
