As Composer I studied in Rome (S. Cecilia Conservatory) with Teresa Procaccini and Massimo Gianfreda. Then I had several masterclasses with Gyorgy Ligeti, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Ivan Fedele and Steven Schott Smalley. In 2009 I was finalist at the S. Cecilia Academy International Competition and in 2010 was awarded by Ennio Morricone at the Petrassi International Composition Competition. I love write music for the media also and have a good experience in finding the best musical solution for every situation. I wrote original music for exibitions (Mysteria, Warner Village, 2001), short movie (The Son, L'angelo Zingaro, Il Cuore nel cassetto, La lupa e l'agnello) and long movie (De Serpentis Munere).
CONDUCTOR
As Conductor I'm known for My WHITE GLOVES and for the ability to relate with people (Choirs, Ensembles & Orchestras) in order to catch the right musical taste and atmosfphere. From Palestrina to Copland, from Genesis to Pink Floyd I'm able to find the best gesture and interpratation. I conducted simphonic repertoire (Mozart Requiem, Mozart 25th Symphony in Japan, Orff Carmina Burana in Cavea Parco della Musica and Ostia Antica) as well as poliphonic and lyric choir repertoire. Had collaborations with Ottoni d'Autore, quartetto Shararez, ORT, Orhestra Bruzia from Cosenza, Orchestra Etnea from Catania, Opera Brass di Verona, Union Brass from Napoli, Fondazione Fossano Brass from Cuneo, Udine Opera Bras.
GUITARIST
I studied with Giuliano Balestra approaching the Emilio Pujol sound quality and musical taste. With My Wife Francesca Romana Iorio I formed the Orpheus Duo to play original music for singing and guitar. Since I was young loved Prog Rock, Psichedelik Rock and Jazz music too. So since 2017 as soloist or in collaboration with my wife and the trumpetter Gino Fedeli I performed rock and jazz music.
