LATEST NEWS
The new year was off to a good start, at least in music: all four EPs that will come together in my new Chopin-themed album, dedicated to Chopin's Waltzes, have made it into Spotify's "Classical New Releases". This project has been accompanied by various singles, one of which features that delightful Chopin divertissement, the Galop Marquis, and another, the enchanting Cantabile in B-flat major. Here on the homepage, you can also find the covers of some of the many albums I released in 2024.
But speaking of more important matters:
-
let's stand and work for Peace, in the true spirit of the Europe that was born after the Second World War;
-
let's support together intiatives like this important campaign by Emergency: Article 11 (of the Italian Constitution), "Italy repudiates war";
-
most recently, I’ve been working with my Palestinian colleague and friend, Mahmoud Abuwarda, on the world premiere recording of his new piano piece, Nocturne No, 2 "Stars Over the Sleeping City". It’s a haunting musical reflection on the final nights of peace for the civilians in Gaza. Now more than ever, we must mobilize — through words, through action, and also through culture and art. Stay tuned to hear this powerful and deeply moving composition;
-
as for the ongoing bloodshed in Ukraine, the proceeds from the streams and sales of one of my albums, dedicated to music of the living Ukrainian composer Silvestrov and the Russian composer Rachmaninov as a symbol of brotherhood, have been and will continue to be donated to Nawal Soufi, an activist who helps refugees from all wars.
Some of my engagements:
- 16 January 2025, Seminar "Musicisti / interpreti / demiurghi: a partire da un valzer di Chopin scoperto a New York", within the series "Itinerari Sonori", at the G. Braga Conservatory of Teramo;
- 14 March 2025, concert, Chopin's Nocturnes, Megaron Athens Concert Hall, Greece (for the Friends of Music Society of Athens, in collaboration with the Italian Cultural Institute / Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs - here you can read an interview);
- 28-30 March 2025, Piano Masterclass, AEMC, Montecassiano;
- 16 April 2025, recording session, LukeRecordingStudio, Cividale del Friuli;
