Abstract

This study focuses on the ways in which the results of a composer's compositional and research activity are preserved, remaining current and practically building the bridge between the past and the future, connecting with past and future generations, with reference to the composer Luigi Dallapiccola, to his entire and rich activity, as well as to the Centro Studi Dallapiccola institution, in the city of Florence, Italy, where he worked for more than 40 years. The choice of the theme is due to the fact that in the same city I benefited from an Erasmus mobility, where I had the opportunity to make contact with the sounds and scores of the Istrian composer, during conferences, lessons, concerts and recitals. The introduction, as well as the second sub-chapter of the text, deals with the theme of the own Model and the Other`s Model, emphasizing as essential directions to follow: education, values, principles and traditions. I then led the content to the Model of the Other, namely the exposition of the ways in which the promotion of the composer's creation and musicological activity took place, by involving the 4 distinct and essential elements of the cultural-artistic environment: material culture, cultural infrastructure, non-material culture, technology and research; in short, the involvement of the institutions, the support of the Ministry of Culture, responsibility towards the legacy offered by the predecessors, respect towards creation. Then, in order to have a clearer picture, I detailed the attributes of each of the components of the artistic environment. I reported on the activity of Centro Studi Dallapiccola in the 4th chapter (3rd subchapter), where I highlighted the key moments, important in the expansion of events and the formation of connections with new institutions, up to the creation of a particularly well-organized infrastructure. Finally, the content is intended to be a suggestion towards taking some elements that fit Iași cultural space and applying them, with reference to the music of those Iași and/or Romanian creators.
