 |
Franco Donatoni was born in Verona, 9 June 1927. After further studies with Pizzetti at the Accademia di S. Cecilia di Roma, he gradually approached the most recent compositional techniques as a result of a meeting with Maderna He was appointed professor of composition at the Conservatories of Turin and Milan and he has held courses at the Accademia Chigiana in Siena and at Bologna University.
|
Donatoni has an excellent ability in accommodating his cultural roots to the crisis of the European avant garde, a crisis which he thus succeeded in turning into a personal possibility for continuing to compose, for continuing to give artistic evidence of a far-reaching crisis in values.  |
