Кіріспе
Италияның Сицилиядағы дәстүрлі музыкасы – Сицилия аралындағы халықтар жасаған музыка. Ол аралдың 2500 жылдық тарихымен қалыптасқан, Магна Грецияның бір бөлігі болғаннан бастап, Рим империясының құрамындағы әртүрлі кезеңдерден, содан кейін Сицилия әмірлігі ретінде тәуелсіз мемлекетке, одан кейін Сицилия Корольдігінің және Екі Сицилия Корольдігінің ажырамас бөлігіне, және, соңында, қазіргі Италияның автономды аймағына дейін өзгеріп дамыды.
The music of Sicily is created by peoples from the isle of Sicily. It was shaped by the island's history, from the island's great presence as part of Magna Grecia 2,500 years ago, through various historical incarnations as a part of the Roman Empire, then as an independent state as the Emirate of Sicily then as an integral part of the Kingdom of Sicily and later the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, and, finally, as an autonomous region of the modern nation state of Italy.
Жалпы ескертулер
Сицилияда діни музыканың көптеген түрлері бар, оның ішінде Монтедородан келген а капелла діни әндері және Banda Ionica сияқты көптеген мыс оркестрлері, олар әртүрлі репертуардан әндер орындайды. Орақ және еңбек әндері де "Италияның астық қоймасы" деп аталатын шаруашылық аймағының тумасы болып табылады. Фрискалетто деп аталатын сицилиялық флейта музыкасы, Мессинаның ерлер хоры және аралдың "чиарамэдди" (сыбызғы) дәстүрлі сицилиялықтардың арасында да танымал. Франко Баттиато, Кармен Консоли, Fratelli Mancuso және Чиччо Бусакка – Сицилияның ең танымал музыканттары. Бусакка, көптеген итальяндық музыканттар сияқты, Дарио Фомен жұмыс істеді, бірақ ол сицилиялық тілінде жазған ақын Игнацио Буттиттаның өлеңдерін музыкаға қоюымен әйгілі. Fratelli Mancuso (Энцо және Лоренцо Манкузо бауырлар) дәстүрлі сицилиялық шаруа әндерін (lamentazioni), монодиялық әндерді (alla carrettiera) және басқа да жергілікті формаларды біріктіріп, бірегей сицилиялық заманауи ән стилін жасады. Сицилия Италиядағы ең жарқын джаз орталығына ие, ол Палермода орналасқан және американдық джазға сицилиялық және араб әсерін қосқан Энцо Рао және оның Shamal тобын қамтиды. Сицилияда сонымен қатар Франко Баттиато да тұрады, ол рок-н-роллды дәстүрлі және классикалық әсерлермен біріктірген танымал музыкант және композитор, 1979 жылғы L'era del cinghiale bianco альбомымен басталады. Поп-классикалық кроссовер саундтректерінің патшайымы Ромина Арена Сицилиядан шыққан. Ол тек сицилиялық/итальян тілдерінде ғана емес, сонымен қатар көптеген басқа тілдерде жазып, шығарды. Сицилиялықтардың 1800 жылдардың соңы мен 1900 жылдардың басында АҚШ-тағы Нью-Орлеанға көшіп кетуі джаздың пайда болуына да көмектескен деп есептеледі. Бұл көші-қон кезінде сицилиялық музыка жергілікті афроамерикандық және креол қауымдастықтарының музыкасымен бірікті, нәтижесінде джаз бен испан музыка стильдерінің дамуына әкелді. Нәтижесінде аралдағы әртүрлі және бірегей музыкалық элементтердің қосылуы болды. Америкалық музыкатанушы Алан Ломакс 20 ғасырда сицилиялық дәстүрлі музыканың тарихи жазбаларын жасады, оның ішінде жұбату әндері, би музыкасы, фестиваль музыкасы, эпикалық әңгімелер және діни музыка бар. Сицилиана – итальяндық музыканың баяу және әуезді стилі, үш өлшемде, 1600 жылдан бері Сицилиямен байланысты емес. Сицилияда халық музыкасының әртүрлі аспаптары бар, олардың көпшілігі Оңтүстік Италияның басқа бөліктерінде де кездеседі. Сицилиялық чиарамэдда – итальяндық сампоньяның (сыбызғының) бір түрі, оның екі бірдей ұзындығы бар және екі-үш сыбызғысы бар. Барлық құбырларда Арундо донакстан жасалған бір қамыстың қанаты қолданылады. Сондай-ақ, Арундо донакстан фрискалетто немесе фрискалетту деп аталатын кішкентай флейта жасалады. Сицилияда "marranzanu" деп аталатын жақ арфасы сицилиялық халық музыкасымен тығыз байланысты. 19 ғасырдың басында ойлап табылған Organetto диатоникалық халық аккордеоны дәстүрлі сицилиялық музыкада кең таралған. Соққы аспаптарына домбыралар мен басқа да барабандар, сондай-ақ ерекше дыбысты ырғақ барабан "купа-купа" жатады.
Музыкалық және театр орындары
Сицилияда 9 провинция бар. Олар Палермо, Агридженто, Кальтанисетта, Катания, Энна, Мессина, Рагуза, Сиракуза және Трапани (әрқайсысы провинцияның ең ірі қаласы мен астанасының атымен аталады). Провинциялар бойынша ұсынылатын орындар мен шаралар:
Palermo: the theatrical tradition in Palermo goes back the 16th century and the visit of Charles V. Currently, there are about a dozen theaters in the city of Palermo that feature live music. Among these are the Teatro Massimo, the Teatro di Verdura a Villa Castelnuovo (an ex Bourbon hunting lodge for the royal family of Naples on the frequent trips to Sicily), the Teatro Politeama Garibaldi, the Teatro Biondo (specializing in modern and contemporary music), the Teatro Santa Cecilia, the auditorium of the Alessandro Scarlatti Music Conservatory (formerly the Vincenzo Bellini Music Conservatory), and the Salone dello Steri (seat of the Inquisition in the 17th and 18th centuries and currently home to the Antonio Il Verso Association for Ancient Music). The town of Monreal in the province hosts a Sacred Music Week on the premises of the cathedral;
Agrigento: the site of an important folk festival, the Sagro del Mandorlo in Fiore. The city also has the Teatro Luigi Pirandello and an archaeological museum that hosts concerts amidst ancient ruins. Caltanissetta: the recently reopened Teatro Regina Margherita sponsors the concerts of the Friends of Music Association as well as the "finals" of the Vincenzo Bellini music competition. Catania: the city is the site of the splendid Teatro Massimo Bellini, built in 1890 and still decorated with the original architectural allegories to the works of this "favorite son" composer. Enna: the cathedral of Enna (from the early 14th century) is the occasional site of music performances; so it is the medieval castle (13th century), one of the biggest fortresses in Sicily, which has hosted for decades the so called "Closest theater to stars", name due to the altitude of the castle and town of Enna (more than 950 m on the sea level). Messina: the Teatro Vittorio Emanuele in Messina hosts concerts sponsored by the Laudamo Philharmonic Association. The Cathedral of Messina was heavily damaged both in the 1908 Messina earthquake and by the bombings of WW2; it has been restored to its original Norman style and is the frequent site of classical music concerts. Messina is the site of the Arcangelo Corelli music conservatory. Moreover, in Taormina there is one of the most charming music venues of Italy, the well preserved Greek theatre which regularly hosts a season of concerts every summer. Ragusa: the cathedral of San Giovanni Battista hosts classical music concerts; in the town of Modica, there is a library and center for popular arts and traditions, including music. Siracusa: the greatest of all sites of ancient Magna Grecia. The city of Siracusa has the San Pietro al Carmine auditorium as well as a large ancient Roman amphitheater (within an even earlier Greek setting) that hosts concerts. Trapani: spread around various sites in the region are the July Music Festival and the International Opera and Youth Festival (both in the city of Trapani), the International Week of Medieval and Renaissance Music (in Erice), the International Opera Festival (in Alcamo), and the International Piano Competition and the Mario del Monaco Opera Competition (in Marsala).

Enna: the cathedral of Enna (from the early 14th century) is the occasional site of music performances; so it is the medieval castle (13th century), one of the biggest fortresses in Sicily, which has hosted for decades the so called "Closest theater to stars", name due to the altitude of the castle and town of Enna (more than 950 m on the sea level). Messina: the Teatro Vittorio Emanuele in Messina hosts concerts sponsored by the Laudamo Philharmonic Association.
