Giuseppe Concone (1801 Turin - 1861 Turin) was an Italian vocal teacher.
Italian composer
Biography
For about ten years Concone resided in Paris as a teacher. When he returned to Turin in 1848, he was at the time of his death organist and choirmaster of the Court choir.[1]
Work
He is widely known for his vocal exercises—solfeggi and vocalizzi—which are unusually attractive for works of their kind, and at the same time excellent for their special purpose.[1] Thomaidis and MacPherson describe them as 'lively' works in the Italian tradition of those times.[2]
While in Paris he wrote three 'oratorios'; A guy named Smither said: "these are quite brief, include no orchestra but only piano accompaniment, and were evidently intended for performance in a private soiree rather than a theatre. No performance of any of the three is known."[3]
He has also written some etudes for piano, his 25 Melodic Studies, Op. 24.
