  • Feim Ibrahimi (1935–1997) was an Albanian composer born on 20 October 1935 in Gjirokastër, southern Albania. Essentially self-taught in his early years, he became the first significant Albanian composer to study exclusively in his home country, entering the newly founded Tirana Conservatory in 1962 and studying there with Daija until 1966. He then taught composition, counterpoint and harmony at the conservatory (1966–73), subsequently serving as vice-director of its parent body, the Superior Institute of Arts (1973–7). His most significant post was as music secretary of the Union of Albanian Writers and Artists (1977–91); he later also served as director of the Theatre of Opera and Ballet, Tirana (1991–92). From 1992 until his death he taught theory and composition at the . As music secretary during Albania’s period of cultural isolation, Ibrahimi showed himself a capable administrator, exerting a positive influence on Albania’s musical life. Though obliged by his office to defend socialist realism, during his official travels abroad he tried, as much as was possible, to keep up with international musical developments, experimenting in secret with atonality (e.g. in the Cello Sonata, 1975, rev. 1990), expressing a private interest in Xenakis as early as 1981, and inviting to Albania such avant-garde figures as Stabler. After the collapse of the communist régime he worked tirelessly to bring Albanian music into the wider European musical arena. In 1991 he was the first President of National Music’s Council (member of the International Music’s Council to the UNESCO). He founded the festival Evenings of New Albanian Music in 1992. In 1994 he founded the artistic society “Pentaton” (now Cultural Foundation “Feim Ibrahimi”), aiming to organize several cultural events and to establish a private conservatory for gifted children. Some his works are published in England by the Emerson Edition. For his artistic merits, in 1989, the Albanian State conferred him the title “People’s Artist”, the highest artistic title in Albania. Whereas in 2000, the town hall of Tirana conferred him the title “The gratitude of Tirana” for his contribution to the Albanian culture, and especially to the culture of the capital. In 2001, the town hall of Durrës (the city where he passed his childhood and youth) conferred him the Honorary Citizenship. Ibrahimi has won many prizes in national competitions and in “May Concerts” (the main national festival organized annually since 1967). He has won two Republic prizes – the most important award in the field of creative activity. In 1990, a concert-portrait, which included a lecture on his music, was organized at the Aalto Theaterfoyer, in Essen (Germany). In 1994, at the Brahms-Gesellschaft’s invitation, he was composer-in-residence at the Brahmshaus of Baden-Baden (Germany), and immediately afterwards he studied electro-acoustic music at Mozarteum in Salzburg (Austria). In 1995, his work De Profundis –composed during his residency in Salzburg– was selected for the International Electronic Music Festival in Bourges, France. Ibrahimi’s music includes nearly all genres: instrumental miniatures, soundtracks, chamber music, concertos for solo instruments and orchestra, symphonies, ballets and vocal works. Dialogo for cello and piano and the romance E la tua veste è bianca (after the poem of Salvatore Quasimodo) for soprano, cello and piano (both composed in June 1997) are the last works of the composer, who died the 2 August 1997 in Turin, Italy.

Han innehade också en tjänst 1991–1992 som direktör för Tiranas opera, teater och balett. 1992-1997 gav han undervisning i komposition. Som en musiksekreterare under Albaniens långa period av kulturell isolering visade han sig förmögen som organisatör och utövade ett stort inflytande på det musikaliska livet i landet. Trots hans plikt att främja socialistisk realism försökte han genom sina officiella utlandsresor att hålla sig uppdaterad i internationell musikliv. Han experimenterade med atonal musik och introducerade avantgardefigur som Stabler. Efter kommunismens fall arbetade han att närma albansk musik med europeisk musik. 1991 var han styresman för Styrelsen för nationell musik. I hemlandet grundade han 1992 en musikfestival och 1994 en musikförening i försök att organisera kulturella evenemang och skapa en högskola för musikbegåvade barn. 1989 tilldelades Ibrahimi titeln "Folkets artist" för sina artistiska meriter och postumt även andra hederstitlar. Ibrahimi har vunnit många nationella tävlingar, av vilka den största är Majkonserterna som hålls sedan 1967, för kreativit skapande. 1990 gav han en föreläsning av sin egen musik, som organiserades av det tyska operahuset Aalto-Theater. 1994 studerade han elektroakustisk musik i Salzburg i Österrike. Ibrahimi komponerade i nästintill alla genrer. (sv)
