|
|
(Last Update : September 14th 2003) The following general information text on the work comes from Massimo Aiello's own web site : http://www.massimoaiello.com . By reading this section you can have a very good idea of what Massimo Aiello's work is all about ... As a SOLOIST, Massimo Aiello produced a very interesting performance from a classical study of the Symphony no. 9 by Ludwig van Beethoven (first integral performance at the theatre Pio X in Padua on December 13th, 1987, full hall with over 1000 members of audience). The performance titled "TRIBUTE TO BEETHOVEN" lasts about eighty minutes and consists on live music drums on a recorded background of the Symphony no. 9. The result is an absolutely new interpretation which represents an interesting cultural musical event. It is entirely successful and it is still played in theatres, squares, churches etc. and just with this opera : - in 1993 this opera was proposed for a conference about "Che Guevara" organised by the RAI TV journalist Gianni Min? - in 1995 he participated with this opera to the famous music concert and classical dance festival at Villa Badoere (Fratta Polesine - Rovigo, Italy). With the same opera and with some extracts from "William Tell" by G. Rossini or "Rite of the Spring" by I. Stravinsky, he participated as a guest to several festivals or benefit manifestations among which : - in 1987-1988 he took part to some international cultural exchanges - in 1988 at the Theatre S. Marco in Mestre (Venice) - in 1989 at the "International fair of the book" in Pontremoli (MS, Italy). The local news devoted a report to him - in 1989 at the theatre "Villa dei Leoni" at Mira (Venice) - in 1989 at the theatre "Don Bosco" in Rovigo for the great Rovigo Fair - in 1994 at the Ancient Theatre of Ostiglia (Mantova) - in several High Schools - during Mass at Christmas Night - for the 1st November festivity (all saints) - on December 8th (Immaculate Conception feast) - in some debates with some authorities for the Peace of Sarajevo - in 1994 for the magistrate Giampaolo Schiesaro - in 1998 for the celebration in honour of Giancarlo Caselli, chief magistrate of Palermo - between 1993 and 2000 in some Commemorations for the judges Falcone and Borsellino, with the participation of relatives and authorities - and many more.... The opera "TRIBUTE TO BEETHOVEN - Drum in the Symphony no. 9" on CD has been produced by the record company "Azzurra Music s.r.l.". It is on sale from September 2001 with a national and international distribution. |
