Luigi Nono - Quando stanno morendo. Diario polacco No. 2 (1982)
Luigi Nono (29 January 1924 – 8 May 1990) was an Italian avant-garde composer. Nono, born in Venice, was a member of a wealthy artistic family; his grandfather was a notable painter. Nono began music lessons with Gian Francesco Malipiero at the Venice Conservatory in 1941, where he acquired knowledge of the Renaissance madrigal tradition, amongst other styles. After graduating with a degree in law from the University of Padua, he was given encouragement in composition by Bruno Maderna.

In October 1981 – in the heydays of Solidarnosz – Luigi Nono receives the commission to write a composition for a music festival in Warsaw. On September 13 Jaruzelsky seizes power. The festival is cancelled and Luigi Nono loses contact with the friends who had invited him. Which only stirs his desire to complete the work. He dedicates it to ‘the Polish friends and comrades who resist in exile, in hiding, in jail, at work – who continue to hope amidst hopelessness, who continue to hope despite their disbelief’. One year later, on October 3, Luigi Nono’s work is performed – as if it were by default – in Venice. It is christened ‘Quando stanno morendo. Diario polacco nr.2’, lasts for nearly half an hour, and is written for four female voices, cello, bass flute and ‘live electronics’.
