The
Pinacoteca di Brera ("Brera Art Gallery") is the main public gallery
in Milan, Italy. Housing some of the most important collections of Italian
paintings from the 13th to the 20th centuries, it is an outgrowth of the
cultural program of the Brera Academy, which shares the site in the Palazzo
Brera.
The
convent on the site passed to the Jesuits in 1572 and was then radically
rebuilt by Francesco Maria Richini. When the Jesuits were disbanded in 1773,
the palazzo remained the seat of the astronomical Observatory and the Braidense
National Library, founded by the Jesuits. The buildings were extended to the
design by Giuseppe Piermarini, who was appointed professor of the Academy when
it was formally founded in 1776, with Giuseppe Parini as dean. Piermarini
taught at the Academy for 20 years, and under Parini's successors, Carlo
Bianconi and Giuseppe Bossi, the Academy acquired the first paintings of its
Pinacoteca.
In
1882, the Paintings Gallery was separated from the Academy and Giuseppe Bertini
was appointed as its first director. In
1903, the Pinacoteca opened 19 new rooms to display over a hundred newly
acquired works, such as frescoes by Donato Bramante.
In
1939, during World War II, Pinacoteca's works were secured by Fernanda
Wittgens, while the building was severely damaged in the bombings in 1943. In
February 1946, The Pinacoteca began its slow resurrection from the ruins,
thanks to the funding from some historic Milanese families, including the
Bernocchi family, and to the work of Piero Portaluppi, Gualtiero Galmanini and
Fernanda Wittgens.
The
works of Modigliani currently in the possession of The Pinacoteca di Brera are
as follows.

The third selected music is “Les préludes” by Franz Liszt.
“Les préludes” is
the third of Franz Liszt's thirteen symphonic poems. It was composed between
1845 and 1854, and created as an overture to Liszt's choral cycle “Les quatre
élémens”, then revised as an independent concert overture, with a new title
referencing a poem by the French poet Alphonse de Lamartine. Liszt conducted
the work's premiere on February 23, 1854, and the score was published in 1856
by Breitkopf & Härtel, the world's oldest music publisher.
Alphonse de Lamartine
Liszt's "Les préludes" is
the earliest example of an orchestral work titled "Symphonic Poem"
and the final revision of an overture initially composed for a choral cycle
"Les quatre élémens", based on four poems by the French poet Joseph
Autran: La Terre (The Earth), Les Aquilons (The north Winds), Les Flots (The
Waves), Les Astres (The Stars).
Among them, chorus “Les Aquilons”
was composed in Marseille in 1844 in a version for male chorus with
accompaniment for two pianos, and the first sketches for the overture of “Les
quatre élémens” was made in 1845, when Liszt traveled to Spain and Portugal.
However, after the partly
orchestral parts had been composed, the choral cycle project was abandoned, and
the overture was revised as an independent work in 1853-54 with a new title
inspired by an ode "Les préludes" by the French poet Alphonse de
Lamartine.
“Les préludes” is
written for a large orchestra consisting of strings, woodwind, brass, harp, and
various percussion instruments. To realize the orchestration, Liszt was helped
successively by two composers, first the Swiss composer Joachim Raff for the
score in 1849-50, and then Hans Bronsart von Schellendorff for the revision in
1853-54, and then for minor revisions before being published in Breitkopf &
Härtel in 1856.
Joachim Raff
However, the work was challenged
decades after the composer’s death by the dark history that the composer
himself never intended in his work. Its history was an association with Adolf
Hitler and the Nazi, and Liszt's "Les préludes" was banned from
public performance after the war because it was used for Nazi propaganda when
announcing their victories during World War II.
