| Summary: | <p align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">L’articolo intende presentare i tratti essenziali della terminologia tecnica in lingua italiana giunta a consolidarsi nelle partiture musicali nel periodo compreso fra il XVIII e il XX secolo. Il lessico musicale in lingua italiana viene classificato sulla base di quattro categorie fondamentali, secondo la diversa funzione e il diverso significato che i vari termini vengono ad assolvere: 1) genere musicale (</span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>Sonata</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>Sinfonia</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>Quartetto</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>Fuga</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, ecc.); 2) le indicazioni di carattere agogico, relative cioè alla definizione del tempo musicale (</span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>Andante</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>Allegro</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>Presto</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">; ma anche </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>rallentando</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>accelerando</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, ecc.); 3) le indicazioni di carattere dinamico, relative alla diversa gradazione nell’intensità del volume delle note (i celebri </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>piano</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"> e </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>forte</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, con le loro numerose gradazioni, ma anche </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>crescendo</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>diminuendo</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, ecc.); 4) altre indicazioni di carattere espressivo, osservabili nella successione dei righi musicali (come </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>dolce</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>scherzando</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, </span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><em>con fuoco</em></span><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">, ecc.). Nello studio viene inoltre osservata la ricorrenza dei termini tecnici in lingua italiana a confronto con quelli impiegati nella lingua madre da parte di alcuni compositori stranieri di lingua tedesca e francese.</span></p><p align="JUSTIFY"> </p><p align="JUSTIFY"> </p><p lang="en-US" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><strong>Italian language in musical scores from the Eighteenth to the Twentieth centuries </strong></span></p><p lang="en-US" align="JUSTIFY"> </p><p align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><span lang="en-US">The article aims to present the essential features of consolidated Italian technical terminology in musical scores between the eighteenth and twentieth centuries.
