Maurizio Pollini (Milan, 1942-2024) is a legend of twentieth-century piano playing. His victory in 1960 at the age of eighteen, the only Italian in the history of the competition, marked the beginning of a journey founded on prodigious virtuosity, profound culture, and a constant exploration of music. The image of Pollini as a perfectionist and analytical artist, capable of penetrating the structure of compositions, has often obscured the performer’s other side: the passionate and instinctive one, a quest that transcends technique and reveals the Artist. Starting from his biography, without neglecting a political passion fueled by a thirst for truth and justice, the book explores the interpretive art of a gentle titan who, from Bach to contemporary music, has always looked to the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maurizio Pollini belongs to the select circle of artists who have not only interpreted music, but have helped redefine its meaning in our time. His austere and passionate figure has spanned over sixty years of musical history, leaving a profound impression on listeners, musicians, and scholars. This volume by Luca Ciammarughi, one of Italy’s most original pianists and music historians, leads the reader into Pollini’s universe with a knowledgeable, participatory, and, above all, inspired gaze. (From the preface by Filippo Michelangeli)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the meeting, Luca Ciammarughi, author of the book, pianist, writer, and radio host, will converse with Filippo Michelangeli, editor of the Pentagrammi series and publisher and director of the magazines Amadeus and Suonare news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
