In asserting that his principal composition teacher was Bach, Vittorio Rieti reaffirmed in words what we hear in his music - that he understood and internalized the artistic workings of earlier masters, giving him the confidence to remain independent of fashionable trends. Joel Sheveloff has written, “Among twentieth-century composers, none knows more about his predecessors that Rieti, particularly about those dark corners in musical creativity in which rough places are made plain, and transitional passages get directed toward their proper goals. Perhaps Rieti's greatest gift is his ability to see a musical idea through to its logical conclusion. When a Rieti piece, ends, the audience is almost always sorry it is over - it was going along so well…”
