Mozart: Between Lightness and Depth
Thursday 23rd January 2025
San Francesco Campus, Conegliano
Online ticket sales for this event are closed.
Discover the genius of Mozart, where simplicity meets the depth of soul.
From numerous exchanges of correspondence between the Mozarts, father and son, music was never meant to be merely an intellectual exercise. Wolfgang learnt from an early age that through simplicity and coherence of parts, it was possible to write music that was pleasant and therefore accessible to a wider audience, but also excellent from an aesthetic and compositional point of view. The characteristic theatricality and depth, identifiable in Mozart’s music, originates from the fact that, even for instrumental music, he always drew on vocalism as a search for a melody that was pleasant, simple, natural and memorable.
1. Affective Neuroscience:
The perception of subjective feeling. Do I feel like you?
A brief shared exercise on the different perception of emotions in response to the same stimulus.
2. Biography of the Author:
Analysis of Mozart’s biographical context.
A brief overview of the social, professional, and family context.
3. The Author’s compositions:
A brief explanation, contextualization, and analysis of the compositions being listened to.
In the case of a text, the content will be read, associating it with the melodic and harmonic components.
In the case of a piece of music, the orchestral score will be presented, even if only visually, to facilitate understanding of the structure of the composition.
4. Listening and Explanation of the pieces:
Active listening of the selected pieces with sharing of perceived emotions.
5. Final Discussion:
In conclusion, it is important to highlight the value of conscious listening, which deeply integrates the different modes of perception. Such listening must be “active,” involving not only the mind but also the body and physical dimension, avoiding being reduced to an exclusively mental experience.
