oa Customizing a methodological approach

This article presents the initial definition and subsequent adaptation of the research methodology adopted in Marco Fusi’s investigation of the creative process of the Italian composer and poet Giacinto Scelsi. The method adopted is purposefully designed with a decreasing degree of definition, to allow for the emergence of an efficient research strategy based on the early findings of the process. This organic approach has led to the definition of significant creative outcomes, useful for the development of the performance practice of Scelsi’s works.
