Sallyanne Monti

Il Tempio Armonico rediscovers the deepest essence of The Four Seasons with a performance based on the original manuscripts and carried out 'a parti reali', with arpa doppia and harpsichord as continuo. The outcome is a performance that succeeds in giving back the original freshness, charm and grace of Antonio Vivaldi's masterpiece.

Maria Monti's career in film and music covers multiple areas but hers is the kind of career that has resulted in only sporadic attention in the Anglophonic world, most famously (on a relative scale) for appearing in A Fistful of Dynamite. It makes her 1974 album, Il Bestiario, all the more remarkable, the type of mysterious, moody, and thoroughly compelling album that in its easy ignoring of genre templates seems more like something self-conscious from the 21st century than the apparently self-contained, vibrant collection it is, not least due to the quality of some of her collaborators, including Alvin Curran, who both performs and handles all the arrangements, and Steve Lacy.

Davide Monti is a violinist who combines his infectious energy with an exceptional talent of being a completely natural performer.

L'esordio letterario di Vincenzo Monti è legato alla composizione di opere in versi di vario genere, tra cui spiccano i sonetti. Innovativa è la capacità di Monti di mescolare le fonti, la tradizione arcadica e la lezione degli Illuministi, creando uno stile del tutto personale e distintivo. Il corpus poetico di Vincenzo Monti esce oggi, per Utet, in una prestigiosa versione digitale dotata di apparato critico collegato ipertestualmente.
