About

Book presentation (in Italian)

Giovanni Gavazzeni, curatore del volume, e Ilaria Grippaudo, ricercatrice presso l’Università di Palermo, presentano La minuziosa verità, volume che raccoglie tutti gli scritti pucciniani di Gianandrea Gavazzeni.

Direttore d’orchestra celebre e apprezzato, moderno e consapevole interprete della vitalità, dell’originalità e della modernità dell’universo pucciniano, Gianandrea Gavazzeni ha dedicato a Giacomo Puccini saggi critici e memorie artistiche, cogliendone aspetti nascosti e offrendo intuizioni interpretative che risultano, ancor oggi, straordinariamente felici. Così le partiture di Tosca, Bohème, Madama Butterfly, Manon, Turandot, La fanciulla del West…diventano materia di analisi e, al contempo, argomento di riflessione su tutti gli aspetti dello spettacolo operistico.
La presentazione, nel giorno della prima di Turandot, ricorda che l’ultima opera di Puccini fu uno dei tanti titoli diretti da Gianandrea Gavazzeni al Teatro Massimo, nell’arco di più di quarant’anni: un percorso ricchissimo e indimenticabile che spazia da Mozart e Rossini fino al Novecento.

A sensory journey dedicated to the sound of the body

Music by Mario Bajardi
Coreography Giovanna Velardi
Teatro Massimo Ballet

Teatro Massimo production

Programme

The dancers propose a collaborative experience: after an initial stage as spectators, students are involved in the movement and called to listen and share their perceptions. A performance that comes from the research on the sounds of the body still and in motion, starting from what we perceive as silence. The absence of sound is never true absence: the body is sound. The bones, organs, fluids of the body have a sound. Perceiving the inner sound puts us in contact with the vibrations and sound waves of the body that are projected outside, transformed, reshaped and active. the body moves and meets the air, generating forms and dynamics related to acceleration, deceleration, suspension, fall, resistance, tension and release. The space, with which the body meets and clashes, generates frequencies and intensity. And what happens when internal frequencies, generated by the body, interact with external frequencies generated from other sources? A dialogue is born that interferes with our emotional states, because the receptors through nerve circuits have the power to generate emotions.
