Per Violino, Violoncello E Pianoforte. Par CALLIGARIS SERGIO. Sergio Calligaris was born in Rosario (1941), Argentina. He is one of the last musicians to incarnate the traditional 19th century figure of pianist, teacher and composer, inaugurated at the beginning of the 19th century by Muzio Clementi and carriedon after that by a sequence of famous names that the history of music has handed down to us. As a pianist, he began to give public performances at the age of 13, making his debut in his home town Rosario. Following this success, he embarked upon an extremely busy career as a soloist, giving numerous recitals in Buenos Aires and other citiesin Argentina. He continued to take advanced lessons with eminent exponents of the most prestigious international piano schools. In 1974 he became an Italian citizen and settled in Rome, teaching piano as principal instrument at the S. Pietro a Majella StateConservatory in Naples, the Luisa DAnnunzio Conservatory in Pescara and the Alfredo Casella Conservatory in Aquila. As a composer, he began - at just 9 years of age - to study in the rigorous school of Paul Hindemith, under the guidance of Father Luis Machado, from whom he inherited a love of counterpoint and a strong taste for harmony. He took a diploma incomposition, counterpoint and fugue at the age of 16 at the Amigos del Arte Society in Rosario, going on in 1964 to do an advanced course in 12-tone counterpoint at the Cleveland Institute of Music. The catalogue of his compositions, which has nowreached Op. 55, encompasses a huge range of instrumental/vocal chamber music and symphonic works: a vast and articulated catalogue, in which Sergio Calligaris’s composition expresses its inspiration through the dramatic development of a dialecticalcontrast between the two natures of the composer’s personality - the elegiac and the dithyrambic - which confront and interact with each other giving rise to artistic outcomes of a deeply moving nature. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Répertoire / Violon, Violoncelle et Piano

Les trios avec clarinette op. 11 et 38 de Beethoven furent compos?s au cours des ann?es 1798 et 1802/1803. Le trio op. 11 fut surnomm? ?Trio Gassenhauer? ? cause de son 3e mouvement dans lequel un th?me de l?op?ra de Joseph Weigl ?L?amor marinaro? fait l?objet de neuf variations. Beethoven y explore toutes sortes de possibilit?s: le piano joue parfois seul d?autres fois pas du tout on peut y entendre une sorte de marche fun?bre et de nombreuses surprises harmoniques et rythmiques. L?op. 38 (Grand Trio) qui est aussi le plus tardif des deux trios avec clarinette est une transformation par Beethoven de son propre septuor op. 20 qu?il dota tout comme l?op. 11 d?une partie de violonalternative afin que l??uvre puisse ?tre plus facilement diffus?e et devienne plus populaire. Les parties de violon figurent ?galement dans la pr?sente ?dition urtext donnant ainsi ? comme autrefois ? davantage de prix ? cette ?dition.
