Francesco Pasqualotto - Piano Works - Music & Performance - CD

Given Bartók's expressive variety it would be not excessive to say that his tormented works represents the keystone of the entire XXth Century. A technical complexity joins a very varied musical language which often bear a strong influence from the popular music as well as from Liszt and Debussy and the ornamentation of Couperin. We could define Bartók as a man of a thousand faces and with this album we are trying to reveal some-ones. Francesco Pasqualotto (1982) lives in Gallarate, where he has graduated from Liceo Classico in 2001. He studied piano under the direction of Maestro Maria Grazia Bellocchio. In 2004 he graduated with honors at Conservatorio Verdi in Milano, where he was admitted as private student. He attended the experimental composition course given by Maestro Sandro Gorli at the same Conservatoire. He has graduated in Bergamo in second level degree with high votes.
