2 The original italian repertory for plucked instruments between 800 and 900 was not so practised by musicians until some years ago. The main reasons were historical- cultural but, most of all, they considered the quality level of that repertory being not good enough and not appropriate for concert performances. Fortunately this opinion has changed thanks also to the growing number of researchers coming from the guitar and mandolin fields who started to investigate these musics carefully and, meanwhile, to discover the most interesting compositions among the large quantity of music pieces, coming chiefly from Magazines (Il Plettro, Il Concerto, Il Mandolino, etc.) published between the two centuries. Furthermore, a different critical approach, derived from a philologic study coming also from other instrumental circles, made it possible to evidence their peculiarities and musical value. The Seminar teachers have been performing this repertory for many years and they distinguished themselves in a strict musicological approach accompanied by original interpretation and instrumental tecnique.

N.ROMALDI Sinfonia in Do maggiore S.SALVETTI Mormorio del mare CURRICULA teachers Zigiotti Merlante duet starts activity in 1996 with the intention of studying and perform the rich original repertory for mandolin and guitar which includes the great number of baroque Sonatas manuscripts spread all over the libraries of half Europe the nineteenth century works of the italian and german instrumental school, as far as the modern and contemporary music whose tonecolour research is well combined with the crystal sonority of the two instruments. This stimulating historical circle is connected to the performers musicological interests, so they can make a musical approach, not only technical. As a result, the duet started to go into the knowledge of the plucked instruments history and to perform the original repertory with copies of epoch instruments. During its incessant very long activity, the duet imposed itself to the public and critics for the quality and originality of the performed musical proposals. The duet won a lot of national and international music competitions among which the International Competition Giacomo Sartori in Ala (Trento) in the specific category mandolin and guitar. In 2003 the duet recorded a monographic CD on the complete works for mandolin and guitar by Raffaele Calace, distributed by record company Niccolò; in 2006 the duet recorded Pagine d Album distributed by M.A.P., which received gratifying reviews also on monthly magazine Amadeus ; in 2007 the duet recorded for Tactus with original epoch instruments (or their copies): Paganini, Carulli, Gragnani, Bortolazzi Musica per mandolino e chitarra del primo Ottocento reviewed by magazine Musica. In july 2007 the duet was invited by Corean Mandolin Federation to perform a concert in Seoul during the annual meeting of the same Federation.
