Chiara Corona
Biography
Chiara Corona is a musician and musicologist, actively involved in the research and rediscovery of little-known repertoires, with a particular focus on 19th century France and the role of women in music: as sources of inspiration, as performers, but above all as teachers and composers.
She obtained her first degree at the A. Casella Conservatory under the guidance of A. Coen. Her thesis was an edition of J.L. Dussek's The Sufferings of the Queen of France and was published by UT Orpheus in 2018. She enriched her training at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague with D. Kuyken and continued her studies with C. Guaitoli at the Conservatorio G. Briccialdi. She graduated with an interdisciplinary thesis on musical ekphrasis in Debussy's Préludes and Hahn's Portraits des Peintres. Over the years she continued her studies with M. Ferrati, K. Bogino and the Avos Quartet, among others. In 2022 she graduated with honours in Musicology from the Sapienza University of Rome, under the supervision of Professors F. Piperno and A. Chegai, with a thesis on the rehabilitation of the French composer Hélène de Montgeroult. She edited the recording of two CDs dedicated to Telemann - Andrea Coen harpsichord - for the Brilliant Classic record company. She has performed mainly in chamber music ensembles at festivals and concert series in Italy and abroad, as guest at Teatro di Tor Bella Monaca in Rome, Teatro Comunale in Vicenza, Teatro Zandonai in Rovereto, Diamanttheater in The Hague and other venues. Since 2023 she has been accompanying the violin classes at Santa Cecilia Conservatory in Rome.
