L’Istituto Storico Austriaco a Roma, in collaborazione con la Sezione di Storia della Musica dell’Istituto Storico Germanico a Roma, il Comitato Scientifico degli Opera omnia di Muzio Clementi e il Da Ponte-Institut für Librettologie, Don Juan-Forschung und Sammlungsgeschichte di Vienna, ha organizzato dal 4 al 6 dicembre 2002 un symposium internazionale di studi dal titolo Muzio Clementi. Cosmopolita della musica, che ha inteso riunire nella città natale dell’autore i maggiori esperti di Clementi in occasione del 250° anniversario della nascita del compositore.
I numerosi interventi del symposium si sono articolati in complessive 4 sezioni (Muzio Clementi nel 250^o anniversario della nascita; Clementi: un romano a Londra; L’altro Clementi; Clementi e la «Wiener Klassik»), svoltesi presso la sede dell’Istituto Storico Austriaco (5 e 6 dicembre).
La manifestazione ha messo in luce soprattutto la dimensione europea degli interscambi culturali dovuti al fenomeno delle migrazioni dei musicisti, dei rapporti internazionali inerenti all’editoria, all’impresariato e al commercio degli strumenti a tastiera.

Casa Ricordi Milano in partnership with Fondazione Giorgio Cini, Venezia (Istituto Antonio Vivaldi). Critical edition by Alessandro Borin. The six Concerts op. VI for violin, strings and continuo by Antonio Vivaldi were published in Amsterdam by Roger in 1719. Although the contribution of Vivaldi was probably modest – even to assume that the collection was published without the composer's assistance and perhaps even his agreement – these six compositions mark a decisive step towards the definition of the classic Vivaldi Concerto, a change evident both from the systematic adoption of the three-movement plan and from the absence of any supplementary solo parts beyond the principal violin. This critical edition is based on the first edition of Opus VI and its reprints, but takes also into consideration all the sources of single concertos printed into anthologies or transmitted in manuscript form (Wiesentheid and Dresden). The information gathered through the comparative analysis of the manuscript and the printed traditions of Vivaldi's Opus 6 has permitted us to reconstruct the links among the sources, to clarify some problematic editorial decisions and formulate new hypotheses on the genesis and the intrinsic nature of the collection as a whole.

Puccini's first known sacred work was composed during his school days at the Istituto Pacini in Lucca. It was first performed there in 1877. The text was a hymn to the Patron Saint of Lucca which was probably written by the composer himself. The work was so popular that by 1880 it had received three further performances, though it was also inserted in the Messa a 4 voci, after the Credo. Thereafter it disappeared from the music world and was only first rediscovered in the 1990s. Since, with the exception of the lack of a solo tenor in the piece, it is identical with this one in the Messa, for this reason it would seem only natural to perform these two works together. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.2740300.

È ormai un dato acquisito che la pratica della musica d’insieme rappresenti un’importante e indispensabile esperienza in grado di favorire una corretta e completa formazione musicale. Nei Conservatori di Musica è prevista la frequenza obbligatoria di questa disciplina solo dal quinto anno di strumento. È a partire da quel momento che lo strumentista incomincerebbe a possedere i requisiti necessari per poter iniziare a suonare insieme agli altri: e cioè una buona tecnica strumentale, una corretta intonazione, un bel suono, ecc.
In realtà anche in Italia sono ormai molte le Scuole di Musica (pubbliche e private) che, invece, propongono da subito questa attività ai giovanissimi allievi dei corsi di propedeutica strumentale e di propedeutica musicale generale.
Non è infatti indispensabile possedere grandi abilità tecniche o avere già maturato una perfetta intonazione: l’importante è che il bambino possa incominciare da subito ad esprimere la propria musicalità concentrando l’attenzione anche su pochi elementi, pochi suoni, e possa soprattutto, nella continua interazione con i propri compagni, sviluppare l’abitudine di ascoltare se stesso in rapporto al contributo degli altri e al risultato di insieme.
Il piccolo allievo avrà così la possibilità di potenziare il senso ritmico, la percezione melodica, la memoria musicale, la lettura, le capacità analitiche, compositive e interpretative; e potrà inoltre sviluppare il rapporto con il proprio strumento migliorando l’intonazione, la postura, il modo di respirare (e il problema non riguarda solo gli strumenti a fiato), ricercando diverse modi di produzione del suono: d’altra parte è proprio imparando ad ascoltare gli altri, attraverso una disciplina fatta di autocontrollo e concentrazione, che può maturare l’ascolto critico del proprio suono e dunque lo sforzo per migliorarlo. Anche solo l’esecuzione di una melodia all’unisono, se fatta in un gruppo d’insieme, può così diventare motivo di gratificazione e di stimolo per la crescita musicale dei giovanissimi allievi e può nello stesso tempo assumere una forte rilevanza formativa, anche in quanto esperienza socializzante.
I primi strumenti comunemente utilizzati all’interno dei corsi di propedeutica musicale sono, com’è noto, quelli dello strumentario Orff. In genere solo in un successivo momento (di solito dopo circa un anno) il bambino inizia parallelamente anche lo studio di uno strumento musicale sotto la guida di un insegnante con competenze strumentali specifiche. L’approccio iniziale con lo strumentario didattico è sicuramente semplice e immediato: senza problemi di intonazione l’esecutore può concentrarsi direttamente sulla tecnica esecutiva e sul fare musica insieme. È vero però che gli strumenti musicali tradizionali con le loro ben più ricche e interessanti caratteristiche timbriche, possono ancor più stimolare la fantasia del bambino e dunque motivarlo nella ricerca di nuove possibilità sonore.
La proposta di utilizzare entrambe le tipologie strumentali può allora rappresentare un valido accorgimento per un percorso metodologico veramente completo e in grado di agevolare una corretta e approfondita crescita musicale.
È per questo che al primo quaderno dedicato alla musica d’insieme per strumentario Orff ne seguirà un secondo, nel quale verranno proposte altre facili partiture che richiederanno anche l’utilizzo degli strumenti tradizionali.
Le partiture qui raccolte, da me trascritte ed elaborate, sono il risultato di un’esperienza decennale maturata all’interno dei corsi di propedeutica degli Istituti musicali pareggiati di Carpi e Reggio Emilia. I brani si susseguono secondo un ordine di difficoltà crescente e sono presi dal repertorio popolare internazionale e classico. Il quaderno si rivolge a bambini di 8-12 anni, ma può essere utilizzato anche nelle scuole medie inferiori o a indirizzo musicale.
È consigliabile che il gruppo di musica d’insieme sia costituito da non più di 10-12 esecutori, con la possibilità di raddoppiare le parti principali.
Si è scelto di non scrivere le singole parti strumentali affinché l’allievo possa prendere da subito l’abitudine a leggere in partitura.
Inoltre si è preferito non adottare la diteggiatura dello strumentario a piastre per dare maggior chiarezza ritmica alla partitura e nello stesso tempo per lasciare più libertà nelle modalità d’esecuzione.
Le parti pianistiche sono per la maggior parte abbastanza facili, adatte ad essere suonate da allievi principianti.
