Nino Rota, Federico Fellini, And the Making of an Italian Cinematic Folk Opera, Amarcord (Studies in the History & Interpretation of Music, 119, Band 119) - Hardcover
Inhaltsangabe
Sciannameo (fine arts, Carnegie Mellon U.) presents functional and cultural analysis of the music Rota used to underscore Fellini's 1974 film Amarcord : three main original compositions, and an array of popular and patriotic music fashionable in Italy during the 1930s, in a film about remembering episodes that occurred during Fellini's youth in the town of Rimini on the Northern Adriatic coast. Though the composer and director collaborated on several films, he focuses on Amarcord not only because it represents their collaboration more fully than others, but also because it combines elements common to a folk opera, that is, stories or episodes drawn from a people's culture with song and dance typical to their everyday life.
