Biografía de Gian Carlo Menotti

Gian Carlo Menotti

Gian Carlo Menotti (7 de julio de 1911 en Cadegliano-Viconago, Italia - 1 de febrero de 2007 en Mónaco) es un compositor italo-americano. Escribió la ópera clásica navideña Amahl y los Visitantes de la Noche. Fundó el célebre Il Festival dei Due Mondi (el Festival de los Dos Mundos) en 1958, que nada tiene que ver con su versión plagiada estadounidense el Spoleto Festival USA, creado en 1977 y para el cual Gian Carlo Menotti tuviera siempre un gran rechazo por haber plagiado su creación, el nombre y desviar la atención de los artistas (Ver carta de Menotti a los creadores del Spoleto Festival USA [1] ).

Menotti comenzó escribiendo canciones cuando tenía 7 años, y a los 11 escribió el libreto y la música de su primera ópera, The Death of Pierrot. Inició su entrenamiento formal en el Conservatorio Verdi de Milán en 1923.

Tras la muerte de su padre, Menotti y su madre emigraron a los Estados Unidos y él se matriculó en el Instituto Curtis de Música de Philadelphia....
