Abstract
For my thesis, I presented a multi-media senior project on March 28 -- a piano recital played simultaneously with a visual show that I put together with Microsoft Powerpoint. I performed piano works written by non-Italian composers who wrote with different geographical areas of Italy in mind. The composers that were featured in my performance were: Mozart, Liszt, Poulenc, Mendelssohn, and Cacioppo. Each piece that was performed corresponded to a different area in Italy, which was depicted in the visual slideshow. I began with Mozart's "Italian" Piano Sonata in E flat major, written about the Italian Alps and northern Italy. I concluded with Poulenc's "Suite Napoli Pour Piano", which was composed about the exhilarating area of Naples!
