Biography

Biography

Martelli, Carlo

Carlo Martelli was born on the 12th December 1935 in London to an Italian father and an English mother. By the age of eleven Carlo had developed a passion for the symphony orchestra. Just before his twelfth birthday he started taking regular violin lessons and very soon began writing elaborate orchestral scores achieving a mastery in this field by the age of sixteen, by which time he had obtained a County Scholarship to attend the Royal College of Music in London, studying composition and viola. By the time he was 21 he had written a string quartet and had already had a great deal of success with several large scale serious symphonic compositions, notably his Second Symphony, which had many performances and broadcasts by several major orchestras in the few years after its completion. In the 1960's he turned to film music to make a living, and also worked steadily as a freelance viola player. His arrangements for string quartet, trio and other combinations number well over 250 and are played by hundreds of groups all over the world.

One of the most tender and heartfelt of melodies is this slow movement from the Opus 13 Piano Sonata. Indeed the subtitle Pathétique, acquired by the sonata, derives from the mood evoked by this middle movement. Arranged by Carlo Martelli.

This symphony, dubbed the Little Symphony by its composer, is much more compact in its construction than almost all of Beethoven's other mature works. In spite of this the first movement of the Eighth Symphony lacks none of the vigour and dynamism of the more complexly constructed symphonies. Arranged by Carlo Martelli.

Beethoven's nine symphonies have for nearly two hundred years formed the backbone of the orchestral repertory. This movement from the first of these symphonies, though already strongly marked with the composers personality, retains some traces of the 18th century, especially of Haydn. Arranged by Carlo Martelli.
