Projects

Projects I am currently working on:

  • Duo with short-stories teller María José Pedragosa - this project joins short-stories telling and percussions. It's an interesting use of percussions (mainly frame drums of course).
  • Duo with singer Cumie Dunio - Cumie is an extraordinary singer and we perform both improvised songs and composed ones.
  • Collaboration with contemporary dancer Michele Mastroianni who asked me to write the music for a coreography which will be presented next spring/summer in Barcelona.
  • "From Afrodite to fusion" - this is a performance I presented in spring 2007 at Teatre Llantiol in Barcelona - it is an introduction to frame drums, during which I give some historical notes on these instruments and show some of them (including the playing techniques). There are some solo pieces and at least two invited artists (singers, musicians, actors) with whom I perform different pieces using frame drums. From Afrodite to fusion is directed by Monica Lucchetti. For more information and for booking From Afrosite to fusion feel welcome to contact me.
  • Clan Goliard - it's a new-born (fall 2007) celtic and ancient music gruop.
  • Bid you gig - Bid Your Gig is a reverse auctions site where music professionals can meet other professionals.
  • In 2005 the duo Jingles and Frames (Paolo Cimmino and Andrea Piccioni) asked me to design the cover for their "For Gaia" CD. I presented them different proposals and they choose the one you can see on the right. You can see some samples here. I am available for CD cover design, just contact me in case you are interested.
