Giovanni Battista Maldura and the Invention of the Roman Mandolin. E-book. Formato EPUB Lorenzo Lippi - Lemus Edizioni, 2023 -
THE BOOK. Giovanni Battista Maldura (1859–1905), a renowned musician and tireless entertainer of Rome’s musical life in the second half of the 19th century, was also an undisputed innovator of a new concept of mandolin making, an instrument of which he was recognised as a great virtuoso. The need to restore the legitimate role of the figure of Maldura arises at a time when the mandolin is regaining, after a few decades of oblivion, its rightful place in the musical and cultural history of Italy, finally freeing itself from the stigma of the second half of the 20th century that bound it predominantly, if not sometimes exclusively, to a mostly popular soundscape. This book – written in two voices – brings together Maldura’s two souls: that of a brilliant teacher and musician, and that of a luthier, two souls that were never too far apart.THE AUTHORSLorenzo Lippi has been considered for a long time one of the most esteemed Italian luthier.

Giovanni Battista Maldura e l'invenzione del mandolino romano. E-book. Formato EPUB Lorenzo Lippi - Lemus Edizioni, 2023 -
Giovanni Battista Maldura (1859-1905) rinomato musicista e instancabile animatore della vita musicale romana della seconda metà dell’Ottocento fu anche un indiscusso innovatore nell’ambito di una nuova concezione liutaria del mandolino, strumento del quale era riconosciuto come grande virtuoso. La necessità di ridare il legittimo ruolo alla figura di Maldura nasce in un momento in cui il mandolino sta riacquistando, dopo qualche decennio di oblio, il suo giusto rilievo nella storia musicale e culturale del nostro paese affrancandosi finalmente dallo stigma del secondo Novecento che lo legava prevalentemente, se non a volte esclusivamente, a un panorama sonoro per lo più popolareggiante. Questo volume – a due voci – riunisce le due anime di Maldura: quella di brillante insegnante e musicista, e quella di liutaio, due anime che non furono mai troppo lontane tra loro.
Il Malmantile racquistato. E-book. Formato EPUB Lorenzo Lippi - Kkien Publ. Int., 2022 -
Il riscatto della lingua popolareIl Malmantile racquistato, poema eroicomico in dodici canti, prende il nome da un vecchio castello presso Firenze. Il poema, infatti, ispirato a due novelle del Cunto de li cunti del Basile, narra in dodici canti in ottava rima la fantastica contesa tra Celidora e Bertinella per il reame di Malmantile, castello ora scomparso e allora diroccato e privo d'abitanti nei pressi di Signa. Il poema è ricco di motti e proverbi fiorentini e della vivacità, comicità, malizia del parlare popolare. Inoltre, è corredato da note di Puccio Lamon, ricche di erudizione linguistica e folcloristica.Il Malmantile, nato come una parodia della Gerusalemme liberata, fu in seguito ammesso dall’Accademia della Crusca fra i «testi di lingua».
