Vibrant, crafty, playful, Neo-Baroque partita, with a very pleasant 20th-century harmonic language, and contrapuntal textures !!!!! Glad to discover Rieti !
What pleasant neoclassical music; often nicely "light," yet earnest and well-crafted. There seems to be a feeling of 'delight in music,' in each of his pieces you've posted. A very happy 'find' for me. Thanks.
Un po' tardiva rispetto alle varie "Partita" degli anni '30, ma qui la forma trova il suo compositore congeniale. Quella di Casella era un pout-pourri, le altre di Petrassi, Dallapiccola e altri rimanevano confinate nell'esercizio scolastico. Vittorio Rieti era un neoclassico tout court, il migliore del XX secolo; nonostante la sua lunga vita, la sua vena compositiva non si esaurì mai.
This would have been very well known and popular were it not for the fatal flaw of being accessible in the 20th century. It's a shame. But at least it has been recorded for all of us to enjoy.
Your comment makes no sense. For one "accessible" is relative. For another, there is plenty of music from the 20th century that is tonal and popular. We need go no further than Rieti's teacher Ottorino Resighi whose suites Ancient Airs and Dances, The Birds, Fountains of Rome, etc are wildly popular. And there are so many other composers, Copland, Barber, much of Stravinsky, Britten, Prokofiev, Vaughan Williams, Khachaturian, too many to list here, who wrote music you would no doubt find "accessible". And, yes, there are the figures of the 20th century avant garde, whom you dislike, but I and others enjoy. Why invent dark conspiracies when we could just enjoy the music we like?
Mille grazie, non lo conoscevo quello del mio babbo, che ha fatto dopo....e bellissima , e fa sentire il suo suono si particulare, lirica che mi ha viziata per quasi qualsiasi oboista dopo,ma! Grazie per un tal dono profondo.. Mi fa curiosrae anche come sonole canzoni di Rieti..ci sono per grande voce? Grazie se qualcuno può aiutar di conoscerli.

Ottimo commento! Sono completamente d'accordo con te

Very funny, yet very true.
