societies in 10 different countries. This is wonderful BUT now we meed more scores.
Alla recente riunione del Consiglio Internazionale per la Musica dell’UNESCO,
dell’UNESCO tenuta a Roma, ho
parlato con Lupwishi Myumba che rappresenta l’Africa per l’UNESCO. Ringrazia tutte coloro che
hanno risposto al nostro appello per musica corale per l’Africa. Questa musica è richiesta urgentemente
dato la grande tradizione corale in quel continente. Lavori sono stati ricevuti da Susie Self – S.M.
Barchan – Antonia Sarcia – Maryanne Rumancik – Beth Anderson – Karin Hoghielm – Elizabeth

The network of this Foundation is made up of creators of music, musicians, and musicologists teaching
in schools, academies and universities which cannot buy sheet music, updated teaching materials,
recordings and instruments. In the nineties we began to collect second hand music, books and cds,which
are listed and sent to many parts of the world. Teachers, School Children, Nuns, Choir Masters,
Military Band Directors, Performers, Publishers and Record Companies all help us to help others.
Please join this projecgt. It doesn’t matter how old the materials are. We care – we share…………If
share………… your
country’s music institutions need this help – let us know!
Musica per la Mente
In molti paesi ci sono associazioni che promuovano il lavoro delle compositrici, e sappiamo che spesso gli
insegnanti non possano permettersi di comprare libri e cd che riguardano la storia della musica. Così
negli anni novanta è nata “Music
Music for the Mind”.
Mind” Tutto quello che arriva da noi per questo progetto viene
inventariato e mandato dove c’è bisogno. Servono spartiti, partiture, cd e libri sulla storia della musica
che possono essere inviati direttamente all’ufficio a Roma. La musica, di ogni genere, di uomini e di
donne, usata e nuova, CD, DVD, sarà inviata direttamente alle istituzioni musicali indicati dalle nostre
affiliate. “A noi importa quando manca gli strumenti per fare musica – per questo esiste “Musica per la
Mente”.

IL QUADERNO DI MUSICA DI MADDALENA opera in un atto per soli e coro di voci bianche, ensemble
strumentale e apprendista pianista musica Roberta Vacca (rev. 2007) testo Paola Campanili - 9 e 10
maggio 2007 (ore
9:30-11:30/19) - Auditorium del Castello - L’Aquila:
E’ la favola di una bambina che
(
incontra la musica di Bach rendendola parte del suo mondo di sogni, giochi e personaggi fantastici.
Maddalena - apprendista pianista - possiede un bellissimo libro di musica (“Klavier buchlein fur Anna
Magdalena”) e suonando riesce ad immaginare storie straordinarie. Un giorno si addormenta sulla
tastiera suonando una fughetta e si apre il mondo dei suoi sogni: i suoni trascolorano, al pianoforte
lentamente si sostituisce un clavicembalo, un flauto si aggiunge e poi ancora un violino e un violoncello
…La sua Gallina di peluche si anima e ci introduce nella storia: un calzolaio sfortunato di nome
Bastiano, sua moglie Lena, un folletto maligno e dispettoso, tanti piccoli gnomi assai volenterosi, e, al di
sopra di tutto, sempre la musica che muove l’azione. La traccia del testo (da “Gli Gnomi” dei fratelli
Grimm) si presta bene a suggerire in forma fantastica l’aspetto più artigianale del fare musica, tanto
presente nel modo di lavorare dei compositori.
