Franco Donatoni
Franco Donatoni (1927-2000) was an Italian composer, born in Verona, who died in Milan. Donatoni moved from serial writing through a phase of chance and self-negating procedures, shaped by John Cage and Franz Kafka, to a more lyrical and witty style after 1973 and late works touched by jazz. He taught composition in Turin, Milan, Siena and Rome, and his pupils included Magnus Lindberg, Esa-Pekka Salonen and Fausto Romitelli. Donatoni studied in Milan and Bologna and then with Ildebrando Pizzetti in Rome.
