Fabio Vacchi (pronounced [ˈfaːbjo ˈvakki]; born 19 February 1949) is an Italian composer.

Biography

Training and debut

Fabio Vacchi studied at the

Koussevitzky Prize in Composition.[1] In 1976 he won first prize at the Gaudeamus Composition Competition in the Netherlands, with the work Les soupirs de Geneviève for 11 string soloists. In the same year, he wrote Sinfonia in quattro tempi, conducted by Giuseppe Sinopoli for the Venice Biennale Festival,[2] which thereafter dedicated to him two monographic concerts in 1979[3] and 1981.[4] In Venice, where he lived from 1984 to 1992, he met and was supported by Luigi Nono, who invited him at the Experimentalstudio der Heinrich-Strobel-Stiftung, Freiburg.[5]

From the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino to the Vienna Philharmonic, the Berliner, the Gewandhaus and the Carnegie Hall

Vacchi made his debut at the

He also wrote Sacer Sanctus (1997) for chorus and instruments, text by
S. Cecilia in Rome in 2003",[13] En Vinternatt (for a tournée - October–November 2001 - of the Gustav Mahler Chamber Orchestra conducted by Sir Neville Marriner).[14]

For the musical theatre he has subsequently written Les oiseaux de passage (

Teatro alla Scala, Teneke (2007, chosen for the That's Opera event, on the occasion of the bicentennial of Ricordi, curated by Jean-Jacques Nattiez)[19] conducted by Roberto Abbado, stage direction by Ermanno Olmi, with set design by Arnaldo Pomodoro.[20]

Vacchi's music was again heard at the

Berio, Chung, Harding, Marriner, Pappano, and, as already mentioned Muti and Abbado
, who have conducted Vacchi's music a number of times.

In 2009

Teatro San Carlo put on Eternapoli, at the request of Toni Servillo.[36] Again in 2018, after the Concerto for violoncello at Petruzzelli di Bari,[37] the Concerto for violin Natura naturans[38] had its European première at the Opera of Budapest and its American première at the Carnegie Hall in New York, (conductor Balázs Kocsár, soloist Haruka Nagao).[39] In February 2019 the Orchestra laVerdi of Milan devoted four monographic concerts to him, including the Italian première of Natura naturans.[40]

Works of social commitment

Riccardo Muti conducted Diario dello Sdegno (Teatro alla Scala, 2003), written by Vacchi in the emotional aftermath of

Italian Resistance (Teatro alla Scala, 1995) and which has been performed more than 100 times around the world, also in the version for full orchestra requested by Claudio Abbado.[44] Ethical themes are still central in other recent works. In 2017 the melologue Veronica Franco was performed at Teatro la Fenice in Venice, about the great Venetian poet, courtesan, and proto-feminist who defeated the Inquisition of the 16th century with her free spirit.[45] The Teatro alla Scala will be staging[needs update] in May 2020 the premiere of Madina, Theater-Dance (whose text of Emmanuelle de Villepin focuses on the theme of terrorism), for actor, soprano, tenor, choir, orchestra and dance troupe with Roberto Bolle étoile,[46] Was Beethoven African?, inspired by Nadine Gardimer's anti-racism novel and commissioned by the Philharmonie de Paris and the Paris Mozart Orchestra had been performed at the Philharmonie, Paris, on 18, 19, 20 September 2020, obligatory piece in the international competition La Maestra.[47] The mock-heroic opera Jeanne Dark, from Voltaire's Pucelle d’Orléans, that will be staged[needs update] at Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, 22–26 May 2021,[48] reflects his rebellion against dogmatic thinking. Again in May 2021, the melologue Beethoven l’Africain. Lettres de Prison de Nelson Mandela, commissioned by PMO, will be performed[needs update] at Philharmonie de Paris and then at Festival Internacional Cervantino, in Mexico[49]

Chamber works and soundtracks

On a commission from Abbado, Vacchi composed Briefe Büchners,[50] a Lieder cycle which was performed by the Berliner Philharmonie in 1998.[51] For the Hilliard Ensemble and the Barrow River Art Festival, he composed Memoria italiana in 2013.[52] Luoghi immaginari were composed between 1987 and 1992 for various instrumental formations - performed many times, conducted also by Daniel Harding in Salzburg Mozarteum[53] or in the Festival of Italian Contemporary Music in Beijing -[54] and was included, along with other works by Vacchi, in the soundtrack to Il Mestiere delle Armi (The Profession of Arms) by Ermanno Olmi. For this movie, Vacchi was awarded the David di Donatello prize in 2002. 2005 saw him honoured again at The Albo D'Oro RDC Awards, for his music in Patrice Chéreau’s film Gabrielle.[55] Also by Vacchi is the soundtrack to Olmi's latest works One Hundred Nails (2007),[56] and Vedete, sono uno di voi (2017).[57] The Quartetto di Cremona has performed his four String Quartets many times.[58] The Third String Quartet (2002), written for the Tokyo String Quartet, was awarded the Annual Lully Award in 2003 for the best new work of the year performed in the United States,[59] and the Fourth Quartet (2004), was commissioned by RAI Radio for the 80th anniversary of Italian radio) and asked him to write the sixth, which will be performed[needs update] at Società del Quartetto di Milano, 9 February 2021.[60]

Other news

Worthy of mention is the recent Voci di notte (2006), commissioned and performed by the Orchestra of the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, on occasion of the 70th birthday of their conductor Zubin Mehta.[61] For Beethoven celebrations of 2020, Vacchi has written Beethoven e la primavera ritrovata for orchestra, commissioned from Maggio Musicale Fiorentino and conducted by Zubin Mehta.[62]

Poetics

[63]

As Peter Korfmacher wrote in the Leipziger Volkszeitung about his Tagebuch der Empörung at Gewandhaus, focusing on the events of 11 September 2001, "Vacchi does not describe any attack, nor war. His metaphysical approach is certainly comparable to that of Gustav Mahler: very diverse material is inserted into a broad range, so that meanings which may be felt on an emotional level but not expressible with words are revealed."[64]

Style

Claudio Abbado defines his style "complex and not derivative, and capable of reaching the listener"[65] and Jean Jacques Natties declares that his music "can furnish a sense of direction for composers in this new century. Thanks to Fabio Vacchi for having known how to chart – for the music enthusiast and the composer alike – an innovative course."[66]

So, "Vacchi’s music is characterized in particular by its quality of sound; fluid, refined and shimmering, subtly nuanced and suggestive of echoes and reverberations. The rigour of compositional procedures is tied to a concern to create a communicative idiom which takes into consideration the listener’s perceptive ability."[67]
