Lorenzo Biguzzi at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia

Lorenzo Biguzzi performs in the concert of the Advanced Course in Electronic Music at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, in Rome.

‘This concert will present both works by well-known composers who have used the computer to extend formal and timbral articulation (Dashow) or creative technique and audio-visual fruition (Pisati), and young composers who explore and develop some new paths of musical creativity, through timbre and its expressive potential. From the acousmatic piece by Comito that enfolds the audience in a virtual space, to the piece for guitar and live electronics by Agresti that invests the extreme aspects of the sound transformation of the string. From the invention of new performing techniques and physical and timbral augmentations of the guitar by Tedesco and his C.A.G.E. instrument, to the total virtualisation of the performing gesture and the generated sound in the piece by Mongardini. The concert thrives on stimuli and intuitions that base the main feature of the research on timbre. This was made possible by the skill and passion of the performers who studied and collaborated with the young composers: from the guitarist and virtuoso Lorenzo Biguzzi, to whom we owe the solution of some innovative techniques, to the rigorous executive application of saxophonist Giovanni De Luca, to the patient and creative collaboration of Noemi Sordi, dancer and gestural performer of the virtual solo piece”.  Michelangelo Lupone
