Biografia

Duilio D’Alfonso (L’Aquila 1967) compie gli studi filosofici e letterari, conseguendo la laurea in Filosofia presso l’Università di Roma “La Sapienza”, sotto la guida di Tullio De Mauro. Nel novembre del 2003 è vincitore del concorso di ammissione al Dottorato in Filosofia del Linguaggio e della Mente, presso l’Università di Palermo.  La tesi di dottorato è elaborata sotto la guida del professor Daniele Gambarara e la supervisione del Coordinatore di Dottorato professor Franco Lo Piparo. Nell’aprile del 2007 consegue il titolo di dottore di ricerca e la tesi di dottorato è pubblicata dal Centro Editoriale e Librario – Università della Calabria. A partire dal 2005 ha svolto attività di ricerca e di insegnamento nell’ambito dei corsi di Filosofia del Linguaggio, Logica e Filosofia della Scienza, presso il Dipartimento di Filosofia dell’Università della Calabria. Dal 2006 intraprende una collaborazione con la professoressa Ruth Kempson e il suo gruppo di ricerca presso King’s College London – University of London. Nel 2008 è visiting researcher presso il King’s College London.

D’Alfonso è diplomato in Pianoforte e in Composizione presso il Conservatorio di musica dell’Aquila. Già docente di Composizione, ha insegnato Teoria dell’Armonia e Analisi, Acustica musicale e Psicologia della musica. Attualmente insegna Armonia e Analisi presso il Conservatorio di musica “Santa Cecilia” di Roma. Dal 1993 al 1998 è stato direttore artistico del Circolo Giovani Amici della Musica, della Società aquilana dei concerti “B. Barattelli”. Numerose sono le sue collaborazioni con riviste musicologiche e con diverse società concertistiche, per le quali, dal 1992, ha curato i commenti musicali dei programmi di sala (Società dei Concerti “Barattelli” dell’Aquila, Istituzione Sinfonica Abruzzese, ecc.). Attualmente si occupa di analisi musicale (analisi schenkeriana, teorie neo-riemanniane, Music Cognition studies, teoria della forma musicale). È in corso di pubblicazione il suo volume sulla sonata classica per i tipi della LIM (Libreria Musicale Italiana). Sempre per la LIM, è curatore di uno Special Issue su musica e filosofia che uscirà come volume della RATM (Rivista Italiana di Analisi e Teoria Musicale), nel 2021.

Nel 2012 consegue l’Abilitazione Scientifica Nazionale (ASN), come docente di seconda fascia (professore associato), in Estetica e Filosofia del Linguaggio (11/C4)

Biography

Academic curriculum

Duilio D’Alfonso took his degree in Philosophy at Rome University “La Sapienza” with a thesis on natural language parsing in generative linguistics, under the supervision of professor Tullio De Mauro. Then he attended the doctoral school at University of Palermo, Philosophy Department, with professor Franco Lo Piparo, and he obtained his PhD in “Philosophy of Language and Mind” in April 2007. The PhD thesis was published by the University of Calabria publisher. In 2006 he began a scientific collaboration with professor Ruth Kempson and her research group at King’s College London. As scholar in philosophy of language, he was interested in theoretical and computational syntax and semantics. He was also concerned with the problem of the semantics/pragmatics interface. In the area of logic and epistemology, he worked on theories of inductive reasoning and machine learning, and on theory of complexity.

D’Alfonso is graduated in Piano and in Composition at the State Music Conservatory of L’Aquila. As a composer, a number of compositions have been performed in Italy and abroad, and were transmitted in various radio programs. As a music teacher, after having obtained the national habilitation for teaching composition (1999), he taught Harmony and Counterpoint, Theory of Harmony and Music Analysis in several Italian Public Conservatories. As a music theorist, he is concerned with topics in music cognition, Schenkerian analysis, neo-Riemannian theory, and issues on the epistemology of music analysis. He is involved, as scholar and teacher, in theory of musical form (Formenlehre). His book on the sonata in the classic era is to be published by the LIM, the most relevant Italian publisher in musicology.
