 <\/p>\n

Born in Rome in 1952, I studied organ and composition for organ with Fernando Germani at the Santa Cecilia Conservatory of Music, graduating in 1974.<\/span><\/p>\n

I was awarded first prize at the Masterplayers International Music Competition, Orvieto in 1977.<\/span><\/p>\n

I made my d\u00e9but as the organist of the Teatromusica Ensemble at International Festivals of Contemporary Music in Warsaw (1975), Lisbon, Barcelona and Rome (1977).<\/span><\/p>\n

I have held concerts in Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Canada, China, Sweden and Jordan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some achievements to be proud of: the first Italian performance of Rued Langgaard's In t\u00e9nebras exteriores, <\/em>given in Rome in 2010; a concert and lectures at Interpret Baroque <\/em>in Beijing in 2011; the inaugural concert of the restored great organ at the Santa Cecilia Conservatory of Music in Rome in 2011; and masterclasses and concerts at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm.<\/span><\/p>\n

Coming to know and enjoy fruitful discussions with Giancarlo Bizzi encouraged me to broaden my repertoire so as to include some of Bach\u2019s late masterpieces (the Goldberg Variations, the second and third books of the Klavier\u00fcbung, the Trio Sonatas and the Musical Offering<\/em>).<\/span><\/p>\n

I have taught organ and composition for organ at the Conservatories of Sassari (1975\/76), and L'Aquila (1976\/2008) and at the Santa Cecilia Conservatory in Rome (2008\/2018). I have also given masterclasses and lectures in Italy and abroad<\/span>.<\/p>\n

  Nato a Roma nel 1952, ho studiato Organo e Composizione Organistica con Fernando Germani al Conservatorio di Musica Santa Cecilia,\u00a0 e mi sono diplomato nel 1974. Primo Premio al Masterplayers International Music Competition – Orvieto 1977. Ho esordito come organista dell\u2019Ensemble Teatromusica – Festival Internazionali di Musica Contemporanea, Varsavia 1975, Lisbona, Barcellona e Roma 1977. Concerti in Italia, Spagna, Portogallo, Svezia, Polonia, Canada, Cina, Giordania. Alcune particolari soddisfazioni: Prima esecuzione italiana di In t\u00e9nebras exteriores, di Rued Langgaard – Roma 2010; Concerto e conferenze alla Interpret Baroque – Pechino 2011; Concerto inaugurale del grande organo del Conservatorio di Musica Santa Cecilia, a conclusione dei lavori di restauro – Roma 2011; Masterclasses e concerti al Royal College of Music – Stoccolma. L’incontro con Giancarlo Bizzi\u00a0 mi ha condotto ad arricchire il mio repertorio con alcune\u00a0 opere emblematiche della maturit\u00e0 di Bach (Variazioni Goldberg, Klavier\u00fcbung II e III, Sonate in Trio, Offerta Musicale). Sono stato docente di organo e composizione organistica nei Conservatori di Sassari (1976\/77), L’Aquila (1977\/2008), Roma, Santa Cecilia (2008\/2018) e ho tenuto Masterclasses e conferenze in Italia e all’estero. https:\/\/www.aracne.tv\/video\/alessandro-licata.html<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alessandrolicata.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/334"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alessandrolicata.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alessandrolicata.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alessandrolicata.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alessandrolicata.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=334"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/alessandrolicata.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/334\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":795,"href":"https:\/\/alessandrolicata.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/334\/revisions\/795"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alessandrolicata.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
