Ringraziamenti
Senza l’ impegno degli amici, insegnanti e colleghi musicisti di Alma e del Conservatorio Benedetto Marcello, dove Alma si è diplomata in pianoforte, questo Concerto non sarebbe possibile. Un contributo decisivo è stato offerto dal Direttore Artistico del Concerto Diana D'Alessio, docente di Direzione di Coro al Conservatorio Giovan Battista Martini di Bologna.
Diana è stata la prima insegnante di pianoforte di Alma e la direttrice del Látomás Choir, frequentato da Alma durante i suoi studi accademici.

Alma Dal Co (Jan. the 4th, 1989 – Nov. the 14th 2022)

“If I’m not in the office, I’m at the piano, if I’m not at the piano, I’m fishing underwater,” she wrote on her website during her postdoc at Harvard University.
An accident at the sea of Pantelleria disrupted her brilliant career. In a rare spirit of friendship, the group of scientists connected with Alma’s work is now supporting her family’s initiative to keep alive the memory of Alma and her fearless commitment to research and life.

Her innovative approach to science is outlined in the Obituary published on January 18, 2023 in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-022-01978-7) and in the presentation at Princeton Center for Theoretical Science by prof. Ned Wingreen and prof. Martin Ackermann (http://www.kaltura.com/tiny/03ce8).
