Description

Carlo Domeniconi was born in Cesena, Italy, in 1947. At the age of 13, he began to study the guitar with Carmen Lenzi-Mozzani, and also started to compose his first pieces. Having obtained a diploma from the Conservatory of Pesaro when he was only 17 years old, he went to West Berlin where he gained a second diploma. He then went on to study composition and he held a lecturing post at the College of Arts (Hochschule der Künste, Berlin) from 1969 to 92. At one stage (1977-80), he taught guitar as the first teacher at the Istanbul Conservatory. Domeniconi has written numerous pieces for solo instruments, chamber music as well as orchestral works. Owing to his familiarity with Indian, Arabian and Turkish musical forms, rhythmical and tonal systems, he was able to endow his works with a highly distinctive idiom and to develop a very personal style. Domeniconi's works are played throughout the world by many performers of international renown. To be mentioned are pieces like Variations on a Turkish Folksong Op. 15, Koyunbaba Op. 19, Sindbad Op. 49, a fairy tale in three cycles for guitar, Hommage à Jimi Hendrix and Toccata in Blue. His most well known guitar concertos are Medium Sweet Guitar Concerto Op. 51 and Concerto Mediterraneo Op. 67 for two guitars and orchestra. El Trino Del Diablo Op. 84 for solo violin, soprano, narrator, two guitars, and eight more instruments, had many successful performances including those at the Berlin Philharmonic Hall (1998) as well as at the Istanbul Festival (1999). All of these works music are available on CD.
