[MUSIC] - DALLAPICCOLA Luigi (1904 - 1975) - From “Ulisse”: A Rare Autograph Score From A Modern Operatic Masterpiece - Autograph music score with dedication signed by the Italian composer and pianist. 2 pentagrammed pages. Two full music pages from Act I, Scene V from “Ulisse”, opera in a prologue and two acts, written between 1938 and 1968 and premiered at the Deutsche Oper Berlin in 1968. “Ulisse” represents the culmination of Dallapiccola’s artistic and intellectual journey, synthesizing decades of engagement with serialism and humanistic themes. The opera, composed over a long and complex period marked by war and political upheaval, reflects the composer’s deep interest in freedom and existential identity. Autograph musical manuscripts from this work are of exceptional rarity, given the limited survival of such material and the importance of the composition within 20th-century opera. The presence of a dedication further enhances its uniqueness, making it highly desirable for collectors of modern music. •⁠> This lot is located in and ships from the UK.
