Renzo Bracesco
Renzo Bracesco Ratti (born October 22, 1888 in Lima , † May 23, 1982 in Genoa ) was an Italian composer and music teacher.
Bracesco studied at the Milan Conservatory with Vincenzo Ferroni , where he taught for a few years after completing his training. From 1947 to 1957 he taught at the Escuela Regional de Musica del Norte in Trujillo, where he devoted himself to conducting. He enjoyed great recognition: the city of Trujillo named its city park after him, in 1980 a Latin American competition for young musicians was named after him, and the following year his students founded a choir that was also named after him. Bracesco spent his later years as a choirmaster and organist in Vobbia.
Bracesco emerged as a composer with church music and choral works, dances and songs. His De profundis e Requiem for eight-part mixed choir premiered in 1921 at the Milan Conservatory.
