The voices are divided in six staves, but sometimes the female voices are further divided in Soprano 1 and 2 and Contralto 1 (mezzosoprano) and 2 (real contralto). However, in these two vocal parts divided, the differences are so small as not to add two more staves in the score.
La musica Mi Fa... is a song composed by Claudio Dall’Albero, starting out from an idea by Gregorio Mazzarese, with the aim of creating a bridge between classical music and the world of children. The composition has the traditional structure of a song, alternating verses and chorus. Commissioned in 2002 by the Academy of Santa Cecilia, it has been taught to school children in Rome who have joined the initiative. It was an experiment never tried before in Italy.
All published material is free. Teachers interested in this project will be able to download the score for two voices and piano, and the song in mp3 format. The audio files are available in two versions:
The verses are almost always for just one voice; only afterwards is it joined by the second voice, which continues throughout the chorus.
The song can also be enjoyed by adult audiences, whether as music, or as a way of gaining familiarity with the Italian language.
The score for six-voice choir can be performed by a professional choir or by a good amateur choir. The orchestral score, which can also be downloaded, has the same instrumentation as the recording of the audio files.
The orchestration can therefore be used not only for the polyphonic choral version for six voices but also for the two-voice version, as in the audio files.
