The discovery in US archives of the original “scène lyrique” score mentioned by Alberto Savinio in a letter to his German friend, Fritz Gartz, at the end of 1913, affords Gregorio Nardi an opportunity to carry out a thoughtful and meticulous study that sheds new light not only on the young composer’s musical beginnings, but also on the origins and developments of Metaphysical Art as a worldview and “mechanism of thought” at a time of extraordinary creative fervor for both the de Chirico brothers.
Il rinvenimento negli archivi statunitensi dello spartito originale della “scène lyrique” menzionata da Alberto Savinio nella lettera a Fritz Gartz sul finire del 1913 e intitolata Les Souvenirs offre l’occasione per uno studio minuzioso e ricco di ipotesi svolto da Gregorio Nardi, capace di gettare nuova luce sugli esordi musicali del giovane compositore, ma anche sulle origini e sviluppi dell’arte metafisica, come visione del mondo e “meccanismo del pensiero”, in un momento di straordinario fervore creativo per entrambi i fratelli de Chirico.

Abstract
The discovery in US archives of the original “scène lyrique” score mentioned by Alberto Savinio in a letter to his German friend, Fritz Gartz, at the end of 1913, affords Gregorio Nardi an opportunity to carry out a thoughtful and meticulous study that sheds new light not only on the young composer’s musical beginnings, but also on the origins and developments of Metaphysical Art as a worldview and “mechanism of thought” at a time of extraordinary creative fervor for both the de Chirico brothers.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
