Biography
Daughter of the composer and choirmaster Cesare Augusto Seghizzi (1873 - 1933),[1] one of Italy's most popular composers of popular song. She was born on September 5, 1908. After coming back to Italy from being exiled to the Refugee Camp of Wagna in Austria during the World War I[1 ], Cecilia began studying the violin with Alfredo Lucarini and graduated with honors from the Conservatory "G. Verdi" in Milan . In the thirties she alternated concerts with teaching in middle school and music school. She began in the meantime to devote herself to composition, completing her studies with a diploma from the conservatory "Tartini" in Trieste under the guidance of Vito Levi. In the fifties she founded and managed the complex Gorizia polyphonic , with which she won first prize at the national competition polyphonic Brescia . The recognition followed a series of concerts and recordings for major venues both at home and abroad. Se now lives in Gorizia, Friuli-Venezia Gulia.
Style
Her music catalog includes more than 130 compositions, among which many are to choral music . It is in choral music that appears her greater taste for daring sonorities and driving rhythms, humorous and light swings, a similar approach, to some extent, to Alfredo Casella, Paul Hindemith, and Giulio Viozzi . Her style, very conservative, in the most advanced moments is linked to neo-classicism , and there is no trace of the innovations introduced by the musical avant-garde since the 1930's.
