This fall, Curtis on Tour performs across Europe with a newly commissioned work by Richard Danielpour entitled Canti della Natura (Songs of Nature). These exciting new songs set sonnets penned by Antonio Vivaldi, which were written to accompany his own Le quattro stagioni (Four Seasons). The new piece is performed alongside works of Schubert and Brahms.

Eliodoro Sollima, whose birth centenary falls this year,  has been a key figure in Sicilian musical life for over half a century. This fact means that his name, much less his music, has been widely distributed beyond the region, with major Italian and international publishers (Schott, Heinrichshofen, Curci, Ricordi, Sonzogno, Berbén, and Sifd) publishing his works. Many of his works were commissioned by prestigious institutions and associations (RAI for the Scarlatti Orchestra of Naples, ARC for the Teatro Nuovo in Milan, AIDEM for the Pitti Palace in Florence, INDA for the Greek Theatre of Syracuse, the Teatro Massimo in Palermo, EAOSS, and the Orestiadi in Gibellina) and have been conducted by such masters as E. Gracis, Z. Pesko, M. Inoue, G. Ferro, A. Ceccato, F. Scaglia, O. Ziino, P. Bellugi, and N. Wiss. His compositional output includes over 300 works, spanning symphonic and chamber music, sacred, stage, and ballet music, and children's piano pieces to compositions conceived as homages to great musicians of the past. His works have received significant recognition, including the Variazioni concertanti for orchestra (1962), which was honored at the Trieste International Competition; the Quartet  for flute, clarinet, violin, and cello, which won first prize at the 1965 Rome National Composers' Exhibition; and the Piano Sonata , which won first prize overall at the 1966 Treviso National Competition. Since 1978, Eliodoro Sollima has been a member of SIAE (Italian Society of Authors and Publishers) for the quantity and quality of performances of his music. In addition to his work as a composer, Sollima always maintained a fruitful relationship between his roles as pianist and teacher. The culmination of this intertwining of experiences is the didactic work Come nasce la musica (Curci, 1987).
