The soloist Sonata for the bassoon affirmed itself in the first half of the XVII century, through a uniquely structured model to which Selma, Bertoli e Boeddecker compare themselves, highlighting a characteristically common style in their compositions.
Baroque Age Poetry and Music
“Love and Heroism” voce recitante, fagotto barocco e spinetta The project originated from the cooperation (academic year 2003|2004) among Mr Carmelo Crucitti, Ancient Music teacher in Cattolica University, Prof. Claudio Scarpati (Italian Literature teacher ) and Prof. Annamaria Cascetta (Dramatic Composition teacher) and has been presented, for the first time, in Cattolica University with two public performances on May 11 and 12 2004. After a whole year of intensive studies, it was possible to realize a Baroque Age writing and music philological and harmonizing composition. The second meeting “Love and Heroism” will be held on May 12, at 11:30 am, in San Francesco Chapel, at L.go Gemelli Ateneo. Scripts by T.Tasso, G.Guarini, G.Della Croce and Marinisti Lyrics will be played by Donatella Castagna, accompanied by G.A.Bertoli's and B.De Selma's music and Carmelo Crucitti's and Elisabetta Coluccio's baroque bassoon and spinet. Annamaria Cascetta ,Dramatic Composition teacher and scientific coordinator of the performance, Claudio Scarpati, Italian Literature teacher, and Gabriele Bonomo, musicologist, will take part in the event. The event is promoted by Arts and Philosophy Faculty, by Theatre Art laboratories and by Cattolica del Sacro Cuore University Ancient Dramaturgy laboratory, Milan. The bassoon soloist sonata became popular, in the first half of the seventeenth Century, through an unitary structural model to which Selma, Bertoli and Boeddecker refer to, underlining, in their works, a common in style characterization. Composizioni musicali fatte per sonare col fagotto solo by Giovanni Antonio Bertoli, published in Venice in 1645 by Alessandro Vincenti, want to be, firstly, ideal expression of technical mastery and executive skill reached by a master of his own instrument. The bassoon sonate writing by Bertoli defines “the expressive boundaries” of its own linguistic mastery, internationally reversing the rhythmical and melodic structures derivation connection of diminution models closer to vocal technique: and if necessary the emancipation of these primary models inside instrumental techniques will represent, as a consequence, a new reference point for the vocalism. Canzoni, fantasie et Correnti composed by the Augustinian friar Bartolomeo de Selma, known as “Bartolomeo Spagnolo”, had been published in Venice in 1638 by Bartolomeo Magni. The characteristics in style of de Selma's compositions underline many links with the Venetian instrumental school at the beginning of the seventeenth Century, showing a lot of Baroque characteristics, for example Fantasie general structure for soloist instrument and thorough bassoon, effects frequent use or executive rules employment.
