This particular edition is very rare one, comes inside a beautiful oversized folder and in addition contains as B: side Giacomo Manzoni's "Musica Notturna" and "Quadruplum".
Born in Venice, Luigi Nono was a member of a wealthy artistic family, and his grandfather was a notable painter. Nono began music lessons with Gian Francesco Malipiero in 1941 at the Venice Conservatory. After graduating with a degree in law from the University of Padua, he was given encouragement in composition by Bruno Maderna. Through Maderna, he became acquainted with Hermann Scherchen—then Maderna's conducting teacher—who gave Nono further tuition and was an early mentor and advocate of his music.
It was Scherchen who presented Nono's first acknowledged work, the Variazione canoniche sulla serie dell'op. 41 di A. Schönberg in 1950, at the Internationale Ferienkurse für Neue Musik Darmstadt—a centre for the rediscovery of modern music after the devastation of dictatorship and war. The Variazioni canoniche, based on the twelve-tone series of Arnold Schoenberg's Op 41, marked Nono as a committed composer of anti-fascist political orientation (Annibaldi 1980). Nono had been a member of the Italian Resistance during the Second World War. In fact Nono's striking political commitment, while allying him with some of his contemporaries at Darmstadt such as Henri Pousseur and in the earlier days Hans Werner Henze, distinguished him from others, including Pierre Boulez and Karlheinz Stockhausen. Nevertheless, it was with Boulez and Stockhausen that Nono became one of the leaders of the New Music during the 1950s. While Nono was against any sort of chance or aleatoric technique and especially John Cage. Nono influenced many contemporary composers like György Kurtág, Wolfgang Rihm, Helmut Lachenmann, Salvatore Sciarrino, Heinz Holliger, Brian Ferneyhough, and Nicolaus A. Huber. Other distinguished admirers include architect Daniel Liebeskind and novelist Umberto Eco (Das Nonoprojekt), for Nono totally reconstructed music and engaged in the most fundamental issues with regards to its expressivity.
Contemporary with other important italian composers like Pietro Grossi, Electra Vox Ensemble, Patrizio Fariselli, Marcello Giombini and Musica Elettronica Viva, Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza and Alvin Curran, Christina Kubisch, plus Egisto Macchi.
