I could start with "I received my first musical training from my father on an old Waldensian hymnal; at eight I was studying piano regularly..." But that would be boring.
The truth is that from childhood, sounds fascinated me. I played at creating noises with objects, listening to their frequencies and vibrations, swapping chords "to see what happens!".
Now, after a diploma in Composition and about twenty works written, I'm still doing the same thing — just with more sophisticated tools.
I love studying any kind of music: not only Western art music, but also folk, jazz, and music from other cultures. I'm fascinated by toy instruments precisely because I like investigating the sound of objects. That's why I write for every kind of context: concert music, theatre, personal research projects.
The project that best represents my approach is a theatre piece selected for the Fringe Festival, currently touring internationally. The audience listens through headphones while watching the performance — a way to make sound inhabit space in a new way.
I've worked with universities (University of Trento for "L'ateneo dei racconti"), ensembles, and theatre directors. I'm currently completing a commission for the conservatory (SISS project).
I use Pro Tools, I work with sound design, but the tools are always at the service of the musical idea, never the other way around.
I'd like to expand towards cinema and cultural institutions — sound still has so many possibilities to explore.
I enjoy what I do, but I take my work seriously.
