Mendi Lewis Obadike (*1973) She was born in Palo Alto, California while her parents were completing graduate work at Stanford. Mendi grew up writing poems, singing in bands and acting in theater as a child. Early on she experimented making songs with cassette overdubs of her Casio keyboard and computer graphics on a Commodore computer. Her mother's research in linguistics and father's stint as the founding director of Black Studies at the University of California at Berkeley sparked her interest in language and culture. Later Mendi studied Latin, became fluent in Spanish and lived and studied in Venezuela and later the Dominican Republic. Mendi wrote her first play and edited Focus literary journal while living in Atlanta and studying at Spelman College. She graduated with highest honors in English and was awarded a fellowship to pursue a Ph.D. in Literature and Sound Theory at Duke University and joined the Cave Canem Poetry Collective. She is an associate professor in Writing and Media Studies at Pratt Institute.

Keith Obadike (*1973) He was born in Nashville, Tennessee. His mother worked as an administrator at the Post Office and his father (who studied briefly with inventor Buckminster Fuller) was an electrical engineer from Nigeria. While growing up in Nashville, Keith studied classical piano, woodwinds and began programming BASIC on a TRS-80 computer. As a teenager he became a sought after sound designer and producer on the local hip-hop scene. He later joined the experimental, New York based Modern Hip-Hop Quartet as guitarist and producer. He was subsequently discovered by Kedar Massenburg (Motown Records president) and was signed to MCA records where he worked with R&B artists such as D'Angelo and Angie Stone and Hip-Hop as well as performed in concert with Lauryn Hill/ the Fugees and P-Funk. He later met and was influenced by electronic music composers like Paul Lansky and Olly Wilson while working at Duke University. Keith went on to study painting and digital art at North Carolina Central University and later became the first African-American to earn an MFA in Sound Design from Yale University. He currently teaches in the College of Arts and Communication at William Paterson University in Wayne, New Jersey.

Zelenka, ¿cómo calificaría a Theodorakis como compositor de música clásica?

Como medio neo, pero hay que considerar cuando nació y el momento político que le tocó vivir en su país.

Según sus criterios, Theorodakis es 100% neo, y lo sabe. :twisted:

Esta obra es del 53, y si bien no es vanguardia de la mas dura está al mismo nivel de muchas sinfonías de la época de compositores no tan radicales.

Esta es del 52.

Con permiso del interpelado daré mi modesta opinión: Mikkis Theodorakis es un compositor que tuvo una sólida formación académica; estudió, entre otros, con Olivier Messiaen e hizo una carrera clásica significatiiva pero hay dos cuestiones que han condicionado su carrera como compositor "clásico": la primera, que los medios de comunicación y el público en general se quedó con el típico reduccionismo de que Mikkis Theodorakis era el compositor de Zorba, el griego, música de ballet que en su momento alcanzó una popularidad tremenda, impulsada sobre todo por el cine y su fuerza mediática. Pero quizás el principal condicionamiento es que Theodorakkis estuvo muy ligado a dos aspectos clave durante su vida: su compromiso político y su cultura.

En cuanto al compromiso político, Theodorakis comenzó durante la II Guerra Mundial en la resistencia contra el nazismo, pasó luego por el KKE o Partido Comunista de Grecia, fue ministro de gobiernos progresistas y muchas de sus obras tiene esa impronta política indudable. Quizás, en este sentido, cabe recordar Canto General, una obra de enorme relevancia aquí en el periodo de la transición postfranquista entre la intelectualidad de izquierdas. Aún recuerdo esas cassettes con la obra que se pasaban entre amigos para copiarlas porque conseguir la versión en LP en provincias era casi misión imposible. Además, Theodorakis fue miembro activo y visible en la solidaridad con movimientos como, por ejemplo, el de la liberación de Palestina o el Chile de Allende. Theodorakis fue políticamente muy activo (en su momento, detenido, torturado, encarcelado, desterrado,...) y ello le "cerró" algunas puertas de la música clásica.

El segundo "condicionante" es la vinculación de Theodorakis con la cultura griega, tanto la contemporánea como la clásica. Solo basta leer los títulos de sus cinco óperas para darse cuenta del interés que tenía el compositor por hacer una lectura actual de los principales mitos de la cultura clásica griega. Y no podemos engañarnos: en esto de la música "clásica" la música griega es periférica.

El corpus del compositor es muy importante: cinco óperas, siete sinfonías, centenares de canciones, música de cámara, cantatas y oratorios profanos, ocho ballets y otras obras. Curiosamente Theodorakis compuso himnos para cuestiones tan dispares como el del partido MAS venezolano, el del Partido Socialista Francés, el nacional de Malta o el del movimiento estudiantil, entre otros.

Entre otras obras pueden mencionarse títulos como Andalucía, para mezzosoprano y orquesta (2010), Canto general, sobre poemas de Pablo Neruda (1982), Lorca, para voz, guitarra, coro y orquesta (1983) y muchas más.

Tiene muchas obras neo, pero no toda su producción cae en esa categoría, y los cantos revolucionarios serialistas no tienen el mismo impacto que los tradicionales.

Enric Morera i Viura (1865-1942) Nació en Barcelona. En su infancia se traslada a vivir a Buenos Aires (Argentina). El padre, músico, lo inició, en esta ciudad, en sus conocimientos musicales y más tarde - 1875 - en Córdoba también en Argentina. Antes de su regreso a Barcelona, el gobierno argentino le encargó la composición de algunas obras como Himno a la patria y Mayo. En 1883 vuelve a Barcelona donde se relacionó con los más destacados músicos de aquel tiempo, como Isaac Albéniz y prosiguió sus estudios musicales con los maestros Vidiella (piano) y Felipe Pedrell (composición). A esta época corresponden composiciones como el poema sinfónico Introducció a l'Atlàntida escrita en el año 1893. Posteriormente, residió en Bruselas donde perfeccionó sus conocimientos musicales con Paul Gibson y Philippe Févez. Más tarde marchó nuevamente a la Argentina, hasta que en el año 1890 se instala definitivamente en Barcelona, donde desarrolló una activa vida musical que lo llevó muy pronto a ser uno de los más destacados representantes del Modernismo musical catalán. A esta época corresponden obras como la ópera La fada (El hada) que fue estrenada durante la "Quarta Festa Modernista" (Cuarta Fiesta Modernista) organizada por Santiago Rusiñol en Sitges en el año 1897 y que se dedicó muy especialmente a la música. Un poco antes, en el año 1895, fundó la coral "Catalunya Nova". Compuso la ópera Don Joan de Serrallonga, sobre la vida del legendario bandolero catalán. La vitalidad musical de Morera se expresa en la composición de más de 800 obras de todos los tipos: conciertos, corales, música escénica, obras sinfónicas, óperas, sardanas, etc. Morera es un de los ejemplos más brillantes del catalanismo musical. Fue compositor de sardanas. Algunas de sus obras se han incorporado al imaginario popular y sentimental catalán con composiciones como L'Empordà, Les fulles seques, La sardana de les monges, etc. Pero la obra más popular fue La santa espina, que fue prohibida por el dictador Miguel Primo de Privera siendo tal su éxito, que fue considerada por muchos como el auténtico himno nacional. Morera también fue autor de obras teóricas sobre la música como un Tractat pràctic d'harmonia (Tratado práctico de armonía). También dejó escritas unas memorias Moments viscuts (Momentos vividos) que se publicó en el año 1936. Murió en Barcelona el 11 de marzo de 1942.

Giovanni Legrenzi (1626-1690) He was born at Clusone, near Bergamo, then part of the Republic of Venice. His father, Giovanni Maria Legrenzi, was a professional violinist and, to some extent, a composer. We know Legrenzi had two brothers and two sisters, though one of the brothers, Marco, apparently a talented musician who performed with his father and brother in the 1660s, is not mentioned in Legrenzi's will: it is presumed that he died young. His remaining brother and sisters are both mentioned in his will. Legrenzi was probably taught largely at home, and his performance skills developed at the local church, and it can also be assumed there was music-making in the house. Legrenzi received his first appointment in Bergamo, as Organist at Santa Maria Maggiore, a magnificent church with a celebrated musical history. Following ordination as a priest in 1651, he was appointed as a resident chaplain at the church, though he continued to be actively involved in the music, and was given the title of First Organist in 1653, at about the time Maurizio Cazzati was appointed maestro di cappella. Legrenzi's first publication, music for Mass and Vespers, appeared in 1654. His appointment as organist was not reconfirmed at the end of the year owing to his apparent involvement in a minor gambling scandal, though he was reinstated by mid-February 1655.

Legrenzi resigned from his position at Bergamo towards the end of 1655, and in 1656 became maestro di cappella at the Academy of the Holy Spirit in Ferrara. The Academy was not a learned society, but a fraternity of laymen which presented predominantly liturgical services with music. It had a small but very good musical establishment with an impressive tradition, and effectively addressed the needs of the whole aristocratic community of Ferrara, with whom Legrenzi cemented relationships that, like those he had already established in Bergamo, would serve him well throughout his life. The position at the Academy of the Holy Spirit would have left Legrenzi with ample time for other pursuits. By the early 1660s he had already published eight volumes, and had broken into the elite world of opera, gaining his first performances in Venice in 1664. We know little of certainty about Legrenzi's activities between approximately 1665 and 1670, a situation considerably exacerbated by the destruction of local records during World War II. He ended his association with the Academy of the Holy Spirit at some point, and does not appear to have had a permanent position of any sort for several years, though it is unlikely that he was in financial difficulty. He had land at Clusone and the proceeds from his publications, several of which had already gone into second editions, as well as performance fees. He also published his largest volume, the huge collection for double choir, during this period.

Legrenzi seems to have been well settled in Venice by 1670. He took a position as a music teacher at Santa Maria dei Derelitti (commonly called the Ospedaletto), remaining until 1676, and was busy with further publications, musical commissions, especially oratorios, occasional performances, and more. In 1676 he was a finalist for appointment as maestro at San Marco in succession to Francesco Cavalli, losing by a single vote to Natale Monferrato. Later in the year he became maestro di coro of the Ospedale dei Mendicanti, where he remained until 1682 when he succeeded Antonio Sartorio as vice-maestro at San Marco. He was by this time (along with Carlo Pallavicino) the leading opera composer of his day, with ten commissions in the five years to 1685. Legrenzi succeeded Monferrato as maestro di cappella at San Marco in April 1685. He was by this time probably in failing health, and the last few years of his life were clouded by sickness. He took little part in the services at San Marco from the later part of 1687, where performances were increasingly in the hands of his vice-maestro, Gian Domenico Partenio. Legrenzi's death on 27 May 1690 from the "mal di petra" (a colic-related illness, probably kidney stones) was accompanied by excruciating pain. Legrenzi's legacy lived on for some years after his death. His great-nephew Giovanni Varischino inherited his music and books, and produced four posthumous publications.

François Anatole Laurent de Rillé (1828-1915) He was born in Orléans. De Rillé composed a number of operettas and sacred music works, but his name is more frequently associated with the so-called "Orphéonist" movement, which had also Hector Berlioz and Charles Gounod among its members, which sought to increase the knowledge of music among popular classes by way of setting up male choir associations. The name comes from the first of these associations, founded in Paris, who named itself "Orphéon" (from Orpheus). Thanks to the efforts of De Rillé, who not only wrote many music pieces for male choir and arranged pieces of widely known composers such as Verdi, Donizetti and Rossini but also books on how to organise a choir and train its members, the popularity of "orphéoniste" societies spread throughout France between the late 1800s and early 1900s, and as well in the United Kingdom, where A.J. Foxwell wrote English lyrics for many of his pieces. Though most of the music composed by De Rillé is almost forgotten nowadays, his choral works, and particularly Les Ruines de Gaza (The Destruction of Gaza) and Les Martyres aux Arènes (Martyrs of the Arena), are still among the favorites of male choir societies.

David Lang (*1957) He was born in Los Angeles, California. In his youth he played trombone. After completing his undergraduate degree at Stanford University, he went to the University of Iowa; he says, "There was a teacher in composition at the University of Iowa named Martin Jenni, and he had come to Stanford as a leave replacement to teach for a semester. And I just thought he was amazing. He knew a lot of stuff that I'd never heard of before. So when I thought about grad school, I went to Iowa. I was happy I did. It was really a kind of golden age. I really loved it." Lang went on to earn a Doctorate of Musical Arts at Yale University in 1989. In addition to Jenni, his teachers have included Henri Lazarof, Lou Harrison, Richard Hervig, Jacob Druckman, Hans Werner Henze, and Martin Bresnick. Together with Julia Wolfe and Michael Gordon, Lang co-founded Bang on a Can in 1987. In 2008 he joined the Yale School of Music composition faculty. Lang is of Jewish descent.

Guido Morini (*1959) He was born in Milan. Morini graduates in organ and harpsichord, specializing in early music and studying in depth the practices of bass continuo and improvisation. An intense concert activity has led to collaboration with some of the most important musicians in Europe; he as made over eighty recordings, many of which have received awards and the highest acclaim from the international press and critics. In 1984 he founded, together with the tenor Marco Beasley, his own ensemble Accordone, wich regularly performs at the most important festivals and concert halls: Salzburg Festival. Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Auditorio Nacional Madrid, Accademia S. Cecilia Rome, Konzerthaus Wien, Tokio Summer Festival, Israel Festival, Festival van Vlaanderen, DeSingel Antwerpen, De Bijloke Gand, Opera Comique Paris, Sidney and Melbourne music halls, Mexico City Festival. The main radios and TV channels as Mezzo and ARTE regularly broadcast their concerts and recordings. Virtuoso at the organ and harpsichord, just as a Maestro di Cappella from the past was not only occupied in the performance of music already in existence but also dedicated to music made to measure for his own ensemble, Guido Morini makes for Accordone elaborations, revisions and compositions, thinking up concerts, performances, oratorios and liturgical music. Una Odissea (2002), Vivifice Spiritus Vitae Vis (2005) Una Iliade (2008), Solve et coagula (2009), Passio (2012) are some of his projects entirely based on original scores that preserve, nonetheless, a language firmly rooted in the renaissance and baroque period.
