Massimo Biasioni was born in 1963 in Trentino and got degrees in Violin, Choral Music, Choral Conduction and Composition. Among his teachers Armando Franceschini, Armando Gentilucci, Giacomo Manzoni, Alvise Vidolin should be remembered. In 1985 he won the first prize at the “Valentino Bucchi” International Competition of Composition in Rome, with the piece for flute and clarinet Come?-e parimenti-Dove? (How?-and likewise-where?). Afterwards the piece was played in Sant’ Angelo Castle in Rome,in the prestigious LIM of Madrid, at the Bilbao Festival in the Conservatory of Grenada , at the GAMO Festival of Florence, in the Casino of Arco (TN).
In 1988 the string orchestra piece Di rimembranti raggi lunari (Of remembering Moonbeams) received a mention at the “Valentino Bucchi” International Competition of Composition.
The piece Giacche’ nulla io posseggo -1989- (Since I have nothing of my own) for soloist clarinet, was played during the “Domus Jani Musica” season in Illasi (VR), in the Medioeval setting of Beseno Castle (TN), at the “Mascagni” Institute of Livorno, during the “Musica sotto le stelle” season in Bolgheri (LI). Recently it has been recorded by the clarinettist Roberta Gottardi in a CD PAN (1992) for soloist flute, had its first performance at the Festival Musica '900 in Trento, afterwards in the Bolzano Conservatory and in the “Teatro delle commedie” of Livorno. In 1992 he received a commission from the Regional Orchestra of Toscana for the realization of a “suite” taken from Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess., which was then played in Montecatini, Tignano, Reggello, Florence, Piombino, Livorno, Cecina. In the same year Biasioni took part in the Theatre-Music “Binomio” project, with the piece Musica per Binomio (Music for Binomial), published by the Tirreno Publishing Group. It was presented at the “Festival Musica '900“, at the festival “Traiettorie Sonore” in Como, at “Interensamble Week” in Padova, in Bologna, at “Coretto” in Bari, at “Itinerari ‘93” in Morlupo (Rome), in Bassano for the “8a stagione dei concerti”, again in Como, at Demidoff’s residence in Florence, with a good critical success.
His studying about electronic music, and most of all in its interaction with traditional instruments, leads him to the production of the piece Nell’ inevitabile e profondo tedio del cristallo (In the unavoidable and deep crystal tedium), for piano and electronic sounds. Its première was in Conegliano, in a concert made with the collaboration of the “Fenice” theatre of Venice,and it had a good critical success. The following performances were in Padova, in Venice, with the prestigious performance of Aldo Orvieto and Alvise Vidolin; in Rome at the Academy of Spain. In 1988 the piece was choosen by the Contemporary Art Museum of Helsinky for the “Sound Box”, an electronic music exhibition that takes place on internet.
D'altri amati turbamenti (About other loved anxieties), for flute, magnetic tape and live electronics, was played at the “Fattori” Museum of Livorno, in Diecimo(LU) for “La società del contrabbasso”, for the “Sonopolis” exhibition in Mestre Venice, at the “Ondine” festival in Pergine Valsugana (TN), at the “Festival Musica '900“ in Trento. During this last performance he also presented the electronic soundtrack of the Lorenzo Brusci’s Video Morte in regresso (Death in decline), a realization that was commissioned by the Festival itself. In the meantime he was also busy with music for the theatre, realizing the musics for Conosci tu la terra dove fioriscono i limoni? (Do you know the country where lemontrees flower?) by Toti Palma and Anna Scalfi, presented at the Argentina theatre of Rome, and for the theatre season of Trento, and the music for La danza lenta dei sogni (The slow dance of dreams) by Elena Marino and Giacomo Anderle, presented at the “Drodesera” Festival, and at the Experimental Theatre of Trento.
