Italy, being one of Catholicism's seminal nations, has a long history of music for the Roman Catholic Church.Until approximately 1800, it was possible to hear Gregorian Chant and Renaissance polyphony, such as the music of Palestrina, Lasso, Anerio, and others.Instrumental music
The dominance of opera in Italian music tends to overshadow the important area of instrumental music.Historically, such music includes the vast array of sacred instrumental music, instrumental concertos, and orchestral music in the works of Andrea Gabrielli, Giovanni Gabrielli, Tomaso Albinoni, Arcangelo Corelli, Antonio Vivaldi, Luigi Boccherini, Luigi Cherubini and Domenico Scarlatti.Several early composers from this era used native folk traditions, such as Leone Sinigaglia.New organizations arose to promote Italian music, such as the Venice Festival of Contemporary Music and the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino.Italy, particularly Milan, was the European center of court choreography as early as the 1400s in the form of such things as ritual masked balls.Although the music has not survived, there is speculation that dancers, themselves, may have played instruments onstage.Italian ballet from the 19th century is probably Excelsior, with music by Romualdo Marenco and choreography by Luigi Manzotti.Since 1979 there has existed in Italy a modern dance company, the Aterballetto, based in Reggio Emilia.Similarly, Luigi Russolo, the Italian Futurist painter and composer, wrote of the possibilities of new music in his 1913 manifestoes The Art of Noises and Musica Futurista.Internationale de Musique Electroacoustique.In symphonic music, of the 26 composers whose music was played, 21 of them were from the 19th century or earlier, composers who use the melodies and harmonies typical of the Romantic era.Near the end of the 20th century, government sponsorship of musical institutions began to decline, and several RAI choirs and city orchestras were closed.Despite this, a number of composers gained international reputations in the early 21st century.Italian folk music has a deep and complex history.Folk musicians use the dialect of their own regional tradition; this rejection of the standard Italian language in folk song is nearly universal.Venezia Giulia, in northeastern Italy, shares much more in common with Austria and Slovenia including variants of the waltz and the polka.Much of northern Italy shares with areas of Europe further to the north an interest in ballad singing (called canto epico lirico in Italian) and choral singing.In the province of Trento "folk choirs" are the most common form of music making.Noticeable musical differences in the southern type include increased use of interval part singing and a greater variety of folk instruments.The Apulian city of Taranto is a home of the tarantella, a rhythmic dance widely performed in southern Italy.Typical instruments include the launeddas, a Sardinian triplepipe used in a sophisticated and complex manner.Lenten holiday, while the begging song tradition extends through many holidays throughout the year.Many Italian instruments are tied to certain rituals or occasions, such as the zampogna bagpipe, typically heard only at Christmas.Many municipalities are home to brass bands, which perform with roots revival groups; these ensembles are based around the clarinet, accordion, violin and small drums, adorned with bells.Italy's wind instruments include most prominently a variety of folk flutes.Crete and Southeastern Europe.Dance
Dance is an integral part of folk traditions in Italy.Some of the dances are ancient and, to a certain extent, persist today.Other couples dances are collectively referred to as saltarello.Italy, in which the dancer passes a town flag or pennant around the neck, through the legs, behind the back, often tossing it high in the air and catching it.These dances can also be done in groups of solo dancers acting in unison or by coordinating flag passing between dancers.The earliest Italian popular music was the opera of the 19th century.Opera has had a lasting effect on Italy's folk, classical and popular musics.American jazz in the 1910s.In the 1950s, American styles became more prominent, especially rock.Early popular song
Italian opera became immensely popular in the 19th century and was known across even the most rural sections of the country.These civic bands (banda communale) used instruments to perform operatic arias, with trombones or fluegelhorns for male vocal parts and cornets for female parts."Torna a Surriento", and "Funiculi Funicula".Neapolitan songs that garnered great renown in Italy and abroad.Neapolitan songs typically use simple harmonies, and are structured in two sections, a refrain and narrative verses, often in contrasting relative or parallel major and minor keys.Neapolitan songs can sound joyful one minute and melancholy the next.Recorded popular music began in the late 19th century, with international styles influencing Italian music by the late 1910s; however, the rise of autarchia, the Fascist policy of cultural isolationism in 1922 led to a retreat from international popular music.American jazz was an important influence on singers such as Alberto Rabagliati, who became known for a swinging style.Italian pop musicians of the last few decades are Domenico Modugno, Mina, Gianni Morandi, I Pooh, Adriano Celentano and, more recently, Zucchero, Vasco Rossi and Eros Ramazzotti.Film scores, although they are secondary to the film, are often critically acclaimed and very popular in their own right.Among early music for Italian films from the 1930s was the work of Riccardo Zandonai with scores for the films La Principessa Tarakanova (1937) and Caravaggio (1941).Goffredo Petrassi with Non c'e pace tra gli ulivi (1950) and Roman Vlad with Giulietta e Romeo (1954).Other prominent film score composers include Ennio Morricone, Riz Ortolani and Piero Umiliani.Italy was the Salone Margherita, which opened in 1890 on the premises of the new Galleria Umberto in Naples.Elsewhere in Italy, the Gran Salone Eden in Milan and the Music Hall Olympia in Rome opened shortly thereafter.The influence of US pop forms has been strong since the end of World War II.It is now not uncommon for modern Italian pop artists such as Laura Pausini, Eros Ramazzotti, and Zucchero to release new songs in English or Spanish in addition to, or instead of, Italian.The first real jazz orchestras in Italy, however, were formed during 1920s by bandleaders such as Arturo Agazzi and enjoyed immediate success.Currently, all Italian music conservatories have jazz departments, and there are jazz festivals each year in Italy, the best known of which is the Umbria Jazz Festival, and there are prominent publications such as the journal, Musica Jazz.It is sometimes considered a separate genre, Italian progressive rock.Italian bands such as Premiata Forneria Marconi (PFM), Banco del Mutuo Soccorso, and Le Orme incorporated a mix of symphonic rock and Italian folk music and were popular throughout Europe and the United States as well.Other progressive bands such as Balletto di Bronzo or Museo Rosenbach remained little known, but their albums are today considered classics by collectors.The Italian hip hop scene began in the early 1990s with Articolo 31 from Milan, whose style was mainly influenced by East Coast rap.Hip hop is especially characteristic of southern Italy, a fact which some observers have contributed to the view of southern culture as more "African" than "European", as well as the southern concept of rispettu (respect, honor), a form of verbal jousting; both facts have helped identify southern Italian music with the African American hip hop style.Italy has also become a home for a number of Mediterranean fusion projects.The Luigi Cinque Tarantula Hypertext Orchestra is another example, as is the TaraGnawa project by Phaleg and Nour Eddine.That sum refers to the sale of CDs, music electronics, musical instruments, and ticket sales for live performances; it represents a 4.Book and CD superstores have entered the Italian market over the last decade.Italy, with more planned.These stores also serve as venues for music performance, hosting several concerts a week.The annual Festival of Ravello is a popular music venue in Italy.Some festivals offer venues to younger composers in classical music by producing and staging winning entries in competitions.Roman amphitheater, the Arena of Verona.Neapolitan carol "Quanno Nascette Ninno".At festival time, Italian TV guides concentrate on Sanremo.Winning the contest has often been a springboard to industry success.Elementary and high school students can expect to have one or two weekly hours of music teaching, generally in choral singing and basic music theory, though extracurricular opportunities are rare.Though most Italian universities have classes in related subjects such as music history, there is nothing related to performance.Italy does have ambitious, recent programs to expose children to more music.Yet this kind of school has not been set up and is not effectively operational.Such research is coordinated on a national and international scale via the internet.The focus at that time was on the lyrical and literary value of music, rather than the instrumentation;

10.We know that the Elamites and the Achemenians certainly made use of musicians but we cannot know what that music was like.During the Parthian era, troubadours or Gosans were highly sought after as entertainers.Amongst the master musicians Barbad, Sarkad, Ramtin and Nakissa there was fierce rivalry during the reign of Khosroe Parveez.Even after Islam Persian Musicians did not disappear: Zaryab is often credited with being the greatest influence over Andalusian and Spanish music.It also preserves melodic formulae that are often attributed to the musicians of the Persian imperial court of Khosroe Parviz in the Sassanid Period.However, the influence of Dastgah can not be underestimated as it is seen as the reservoir of authenticity that other forms of musical genres derive melodic and performance ideas and inspiration.The Naqareh Khaneh or the house of drum, the chief exponent of this type of music survived into the Qajar Period but by this time much of the expertise, fostered during the Safavid era, had disappeared.Similarly, religious liturgy or Noheh is a category of improvised song, but is never discussed in musical terms.Popular music however occupies a low ebb in the rungs of respectability with the exception of folk music that plays an important role in the daily life of rural Iranians.Unlike all other form of music which can be considered children of Classical Persian Music, Folk songs have greatly influence the Dastgah system and names such as Isfahan and Bayat e Turk attest to the regional origins of the melodic formulae that underly Persian Art Musical Tradition.Musical theatre in the form of Rohozi, whereby the covered pool in the middle of an inner courtyard served as a stage, is considered decadent by many Iranians.Musicians like Barbod were legendary in the empire of the Sassanid era.Before the 1979 revolution, Iran produced the singing star Gholam Hossein Banan and instrumentalists like Abolhasan Saba, Ahmad Ebadi, Hossein Tehrani,Faramarz Payvar and Hassan Kassai.The role of women in music was restricted, though they were allowed to continue performing as instrumentalists and in chorus.While the essence and elemental structures of Persianmusic are preserved in this work, it's musical arrangements diverge from traditional forms in terms of orchestration, harmony, rhythmic patterns, new melodic forms, and resonance.Like Rumi, it celebrates unity while rejoicing in the endless landscape of diversitythat voices our humanity.Persian Symphonic Music has a long history.Aslanian, Morteza Hannaneh, Hossein Nassehi, Hossein Dehlavi, Ahmad Pejman, Mohammad Taghi Massoudieh, etc.There are also some growing attempts to combine Persian classical music and western classical music.Iran is not alien to western classical music either.In 2005, Ali Rahbari, the head of Tehran Symphony Orchestra, performed Beethoven's 9th Symphony in Tehran Vahdat Hall.However, as it is demonstrated on ancient reliefs of that era, the instrumentations of such pieces probably comprised wind instruments like horn and pipe.Renowned Iranian musician, Peyman Soltani, conducted the Perspolis orchestra.Ancient Iranians attached great importance to music and poetry, like today.Main article: Iranian folk music
The modal concepts in Persian folk music are directly linked with that of the classical music.On the whole, it would be something of an understatement to say that the artistic merit of such a melange as this is rather questionable.However, the poetry and the rhythms are common to both areas.However, because multiple instruments with varying pitch range, color, and ornamentation capabilities are used to play the same melody, it is also heterophonic.The first is based on the maqam system.While a maqam is used to designate a certain melodic structure, a musician may improvise within this structure by employing variations on ornamental figures, rhythms, and melodic forms.The maqams of Kurdistan, preserved by oral tradition throughout generations, are based on microtonal tuning systems where one can find intervals of half step, full step, three quarter step, and one and a quarter step.The word gourani is derived from gabaran, which literally means "one who worships fire."Gourani is also the name of a tribe whose members speak Kurdish and are known for their poetry.The members of certain groups of dervishes (Ahle Hagh) in Kermanshah and certain regions of Sanandaj, use this word to refer to the songs performed during their spiritual ceremonies.Kurdish melodies are very simple; their range is usually confined to a few notes.The form of the music is often strophic, and every gourani has a particular melody which is sung with various stanzas.The "festive gouranis", which have strong and exciting rhythms, are used for marriage, circumcision, or holiday celebrations, and are often accompanied by dancing and clapping."Children gouranis" have very simple rhythms accompany children's poems."Chemari gouranis", which are sung in the funerals while carrying the dead (especially a young deceased), are accompanied by sorna (a wind instrument) and dohol (a large percussion instrument), and have very sad poems.Accompanied by sorna and dohol, they are played in elevated regions of cities and villages.In the north of Khorasan, one can find the bakhshi narrating and singing, among other things, "daastans" (stories in old Persian), although they can also sing in Kurdish about the historical deeds of local figures.They accompany themselves on the dotar.Turkmen Music
In Khorasan as in Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, the word bakhshi means instrumentalist, singer, and storyteller.It was through the Turkish Ouigours that certain elements of Chinese language infiltrated 13th and 14th century Mongol literature).The word bakhshi appeared in Iranian and Turkish literature with the advent of the Mongols.The majority of the great bards of Khorasan, regardless of their ethnic origin, sing in three languages (Turkish, Persian, and Kurdish).With his instrument, the dotar, he usually sings and plays by himself.The right to assume the title of bakhshi is subject to specific conditions.Some acquire their apprenticeship under the tutelage of a master (ostad).In the last stage, the master teaches his student a fragment of a dastan on a daily basis, so that he can memorize and recite it the next day.In contrast to most Mazandarani music, charvadari has a prominent rhythm, which may be because it was often sung on horseback.Iran developed its own pop music by the 1970s, using indigenous instruments and forms and adding electric guitar and other imported characteristics; the most popular pop singer of this period was Googoosh.After the Iranian Revolution in 1979, pop music's future seemed so dark because of the new Islamic laws and restrictions.Siavash Ghomeyshi, Hayedeh, Homeirah, Mahasti, and Sattar.Rock music in Iran has been influenced by many traditional forms of Iranian music and popular Western rock bands such as Pink Floyd, The Doors, Dire Straits, ACDC, Matallica and Pantera.Iranian Rap is largely underground in Iran and abroad.Iranians gen Xr's have mixed taken elements of the new and the old to create a new chapter in the "Music of Iran".Ojan Zargar , Joubin Zargar and Arash Fattahi) Tehran , Iran.Grammy Award (nommination), Endless Vision, Hossein Alizadeh and Djivan Gasparyan.Best International Armenian Album Award" for the 2006 Armenian Music Awards: City of Angels by Andy Madadian.Golden Lioness Award for Classic Music Best Soprano Performer, The World Academy of Arts, Literature, and Media: Monika Jalili.Prestigious Gold Medal at the Besancon International Conductors' Competition, Ali Rahbari.Silver medal in Geneva International Conducting Competition, Ali Rahbari.Others
