Hello everyone. Carryover for the entire interview with the great violinist Uto Ughi output "La Stampa" of Wednesday, December 24, 2008. Uto Ughi
Our light went there. And fans of the pianist who curled up during panic attacks have not hurt. It 's only envy. Uto Ughi also would like the curls so :-)
Uto Ughi "The success of breeding? Offends me"
"conceited and never original"
Sandro Cappelletto
That depressing sight! See the highest authorities of the State cheer this modest musician. The most ridiculous was Mr Fini was nearly throw himself on his knees before the movie star. " Uto Ughi not too appreciated the Christmas concert sponsored by the Senate, which had as its protagonist, the pianist Giovanni Allevi. Our violinist was heard - "to the end, in disbelief" - from his home in Busto Arsizio and they have been "offended as a musician. Pianist? But he also believes composer, philosopher, poet, writer. The thing that bothers me is the media that the investment was made on an original interpreter never and entirely devoid of humility. Its success is the perfect thermometer of the situation of our country, always prevail appearances. "
What bothers the most Allevi: his music, his words? "The compositions are laughable, and musically this modesty of the results is accompanied by statements that highlight the alleged originality of the interpreter. If mention of the great pianists of the past, he does point out that unlike them he is "also" a composer. So the offense really great interpretations: he is a dwarf compared to Horowitz, a Rubinstein. But even with respect to Modugno and Mina. That should be clear. " How
define his music? "cunningly put together a collage. Nothing new. Its success is a consequence of the triumph of relativism: the science of anything, as written by Claudio Magris. But we must not tire to point out that Beethoven is not Sugar and Sugar is not Beethoven. But Sugar has a personality much more recognizable than that of raising ".
There is more pain than anger in his words . "It pains me greatly that pollution of the truth and taste. I find that the guilty state institutions avvalorino such a misunderstanding. Clearly, the music consultant of the Senate are people of little thickness. All returns: it is also modestly art and culture of those who run some of our opera, our music and entertainment associations to allow the scary cutting culture content in the last measures of the government. Weak actors can make any mess, have blunt weapons to combat it. "
Allevi What do you think of as a performer? "In other times would not have been admitted to the Conservatory."
He considers himself an heir and a profound innovator of the classical tradition. "He has no degree of kinship with the music we call classical, with neither the old nor the new. This is a misconception intolerable. And even in his field, there are pianists, singers, instrumentalists, composers far more important to him. "
But it's a media phenomenon and the very significant business. "This is an exaltation and collective acts paroxysmal behind which is clearly a strong marketing investment. I am surprised that newspapers authoritative grant him space, often uncritically. Even Andrea Bocelli has a great success, but never conceited when he talks about himself. As a musician, knows his limits. "
Allevi is young. Unwilling to provide any advice? 'Think three times before speaking. Be humble and cautious. But perhaps not even the real culprit of what he says. "
There is an almost messianic in some of his statements in this autoinvestitura about their role in the future of music. "He is considered a prophet of the new music really speaks as it were. New? But for pleasure. "
But how to interpret this obscure his message: "My music will have the same impact on classical music that Islam is having on western civilization?" "Apparently he thinks that Islam will win Allevi. Please, no drink this nonsense. "
