Costanza Bissoli is an Italian pianist/composer born in Verona (1967). She began her classical piano training at the age of fourteen. Her first compositions stemmed from preparations for a classical test while taking her 8th grade piano degree. They were for her a counterpoint to the complexity of high demands of dedication and determination that the Western cultural music demands. Costanza says, ‘I discovered the thrill of noting my emotions in a free way yet anchored in classical principles.’
She composes in a free style and often in ‘tempo rubato’. The compositions are lyrical and at the same time poetically dreamy.
The 12 pieces for piano in this NOTUS publication are in increasing difficulty from early intermediate to early advanced level. In addition to their lyrical/poetic nature, all piecesoffer a unique experience in the freedom of interpretation Costanza allows in each piece. For Costanza, this personal interpretation is an important and even necessary addition to her compositions.
In addition to these 12 pieces, the composition ‘CASA 12, a lockdown elegy’ was created during the quarantaine period of the first Covid-19 pandemic in spring 2020 in which Italy and primarily the region where Costanza lives and works was severely affected. Costanza also lost a dear family member … this was the reason for composing ‘CASA 12, a lockdown elegy’.
