Abstract
Luciano Berio was a fascinating composer that made his mark in music history with a variety of intriguing pieces. Among them is Naturale , a work written with Sicilian folk songs for viola, percussion and recorded voice, which is the focus of this research. To better understand the interpretation and meaning of this composition I had an interview with Maestro Aldo Bennici (1938-), violist born in Palermo-Sicily, and Artistic Director of the famous Summer Festival at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena, to whom Berio composed the piece in 1985. That conversation not only clarified details never written about Naturale but also revealed Bennici´s great artistic vision and humanity when he puts in perspective an interpreter´s task.
