Biography
My theater ... is held together by the notes of Fiorenzo Carpi. Very often his music has give me, since the beginning or during the work, the inner "clarification" I needed, the lighting of an "everything" that I did not understand ..
Born in Milan as Fiorenzo Carpi De Resmini, in 1945 he graduated at the Milan Conservatory, pupil of Arrigo Pedrollo and Giorgio Federico Ghedini;[2][3] then he was a stable member of Piccolo Teatro di Milano since its founding (1947).[2][4] He also collaborated with the Nobel laureate playwright Dario Fo on all his plays between 1953 and 1967, then sporadically until Carpi's death in 1997.[5][6][7] Fo's 1997 play Il diavolo con le zinne (The Devil with Boobs) featured an homage to Carpi following his death.[8]
