Feria IV, an original work written for accordion by Franco Donatoni, reflects the singularity of a composer who marked his time for his unique genius and creativity, innovating musical writing with deep influences from Webern, Boulez and Stockhausen. Based on the idea that the previously presented material could be reformulated in such a way that it would never run out, Donatoni developed a Bricolage concept in his music, directing rhythms, causing rapid changes in texture and reusing the materials from one piece to another. A frequent participant in Darmstad summer courses composition, his music is characterized by constant expressiveness, lyricism, enthusiasm and exaltation of spirit. The article is presented in three sections: general notions about the composer and work, interpretive analysis and the interpreter's point of view conclusions about Donatoni’s concept as a catalyst for the creative process.
