Biography

Composer Paolo Ugoletti was born in Brescia on June 7, 1956. He studied composition since 1973 at the Conservatory of Brescia with Giancarlo Facchinetti and Giovanni Ugolini and then at the Conservatory "Giuseppe Verdi" in Milan with Giacomo Manzoni. From 1977 to 1979 he attended Franco Donatoni's composition course at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena where he obtains the diploma of merit.

Since 1979 his music has been performed by soloists such as Georg Mönch, Ciro Scarponi, Antonio Ballista, Sandro Gorli, Giuseppe Garbarino, Claudia Antonelli, Massimiliano Damerini and Piero Bonaguri. In the eighties Paolo adhered to the Italian Neo-Romanticism, albeit in a more nuanced manner than its founders [2].

In 1980, after obtaining a diploma in composition, he spent a short period in Stockholm where he met the most important Scandinavian composers and musicians. He began his career as a teacher of composition at the Conservatories of Pesaro, Bologna and Parma. In 1987 he was "Composer in residence" at the University of Santa Cruz in California.

In 1989 he became a professor of composition at the Conservatory "Luca Marenzio" of Brescia; at the same time he started a long-lasting collaboration with the "Sagra musicale umbra" that commissions him many works, such as the Gloria of the Missa Solemnis Resurrectionis, premiered in Rome on the occasion of the Jubilee 2000 and the completion of the Lacrimosa and the composition of the Amen of Mozart's Requiem in 2002.

In 1989 he wrote chamber and solo compositions for Radio France and for the "Cabrillo Festival" (California). In the early nineties (1990-93) he dedicated himself to the study of Irish traditional music which, in the following years, inspired the composition of numerous works linked to the Celtic world and expressiveness. Since 2000 he has been composing numerous works using soloists, choir and orchestra and inserting instruments of other musical genres: uillean pipe, tin whistle, Celtic harp, bass and electric guitar, electronic keyboards, drums.

Since 2003 he collaborates on the projects of the painter Rinaldo Turati realizing compositions as integrated parts of the installations of the artist His compositions are published by the publishing houses Ricordi, Suvini Zerboni, Sonzogno, UtOrpheus, Kelidon Edizioni.
