Listening Through The Dictionary of Composers and Their Music 


Luigi Dallapiccola (1904-1975)


Bio

Dallapiccola studied at the Conservatorio Cherubini in Florence and after graduation stayed and taught piano. He taught several significant Italian 20th-century composers including Berio, Martino, Zallman, and others. He initially supported Mussolini but as it became clear what the Fascists were about he became an outspoken opponent of them. He traveled to the United States and taught at Queens College. He was influenced by Wagner, Debussy, Busoni, and Berg.
