my parents met eachother in a choir and music is a family passion - but nobody of us studied music, neither I
I am an architect, but I left this profession trying to realize my greatest dream, get my first CD with my original songs published!! :)
I worked since 2002 until 2007 as an architect, graphic and web designer, I do gaphics and photography but it's not my work (YOU CAN SEE SOME OF MY WORKS also on the myspace profile: www.myspace.com/liviarte (multi-ART)
“Livia Palone “so-called” OFFICIAL BIOGRAPHY”:
(soon I will edit it and translate it in Italian, Spanish and French)
Livia Palone was born in Rome on February, 9th, 1977 and she started showing her artistic skills since her childhood.
She achieved an Architectural Degree, cum laude, on 2002,
at the “Università degli Studi di Roma Tre”, after graduated at the “Liceo Classico Orazio” High School in Rome, on 1995.
Among 2002 and 2006, besides keeping on doing her manifold artistic activities, from Photography to Music, passing through both manual and digital graphics and design, the handmade bijoux realization, the painting on glass and participating literary contests, she collaborated with many Architecture Studios in Rome and, on 2007, with a computer & web-design company with the role of graphic designer, starting to bring to a professional level her passion for digital graphics
From 1997 to 2006 Livia Palone has been part of the Aid (laic) Gospel Choir ( Onlus Association) “Soul Singers – jazz gospel & spiritual in Rome”, directed by Maestro Franco Riva, in which she had a 10 years soloist experience, too, important for her dawning songwriter and singer career. Livia had the chance to perform in 2 soloist songs, rearranged for her by the director M° Riva (“Free” by Stevie Wonder and “Amen” by Jester Hairston), in many concerts, 2 of them held in the Renzo Piano Auditorium in Rome.
IN THE "SOUL SINGERS" CHOIR - JAZZ GOSPEL AND SPIRITUAL - dir. M° Franco Riva - website: www.soulsingers.it - (I sung in the choir since 1997 until 2006)

IN THIS PIC, ME ENJOYING WHILE SINGIN' "AMEN"
On the occasion of the first of the 2 concerts, organized for celebrating 10 years of activity and solidarity of the “Soul Singers”, Livia realized the graphic concept and design of the “Book-Tribute” titled
“10 Years of Music and Solidarity” which is a journey trough those 10 years (1993-2003) marked by the posters of the 100 concerts held until that date (May 2003), 10 of those posters were realized by Livia, she wrote the text on the back of the book, which resume the 10 years activity of the choir and the spirit with which the choir worked during those 10 years and realized the coordinated image and graphic concept of the latest CD of the Soul Singers (June 2006). Livia, then, realized the poster for the 9th June 2007 Concert of the Soul Singers Choir, held in the Cloister of the historical ancient building adjacent to the Church of San Pietro in Vincoli in Rome, this time not for free, but on commission of the Faculty of Engeenering of the “La Sapienza” Univesity in Rome.
On 2007 , Livia Palone enrolled in the SIAE, (Italian Society for Authors and Publishers). Recording with copyright her first songwriter song "Traccia su Traccia", with which Livia was selected for participating to the final “round” of "Velester Festival" 2002, after a precedent experience in the “Accademia di Sanremo Giovani” selections for Sanremo Music Festival on 1999, where Livia performed in singing, as a cover, her rendition of "Come il Sole all'Improvviso” (song by Zucchero Sugar Fornaciari).
ME AND MY COUSIN Fancesco Cecconi - REHARSALS for a SONG
On 2006 Livia is for the first time on the web with her songs and covers in her, still actually, official singer and songwriter website, www.livsinger.com (realized by friend Francesca Orsi)
(this site will be offline very soon, replaced by www.liviapalone.com).
Livia Palone is also a writer, on 2007, April, Livia was rewarded with the 2nd prize in the Poetry Section and with the 3rd place in the Music Lyric Section, in the International Literary Contest “Il Gabbiano felice”, promoted by the homonym no-profit association.
On 2006, April, the Aletti Publishing Company published one of her poems in the poems collection "Parole in fuga – vol. II", distributed by Feltrinelli, following her participation to the homonym contest promoted by the Poetry Magazine "Orizzonti".
SO, HERE I AM I earn less than a stone, left the work in the architecture studios and trying to do my best with my skills - and - I have to say - I am also interested in social and psychological disease, so I would like to realize my dream to realize my first CD, but at the same time, I won't never forget the daily hard life I used to sing for almost 10 years in a beneficence (LAIC) Gospel Choir - the "Soul Singers - jazz gospel & spiritual in Rome" - directed by Maestro Franco Riva - www.soulsingers.it
My heart "headlines": ART and MUSIC are LIFE - LIVE IN PEACE AND ENJOY ART and MUSIC... :)
SOME OF MY FAVOURITE WORDS THAT I'LL NEVER STOP TO LOVE, WHEN I SPEECH THEM, WHEN I HEAR THEM, ON WHICHEVER MOUTH, WHEN I READ THEM WHEN I DREAM THEM: "...I HAVE A DREAM..." AND DREAM IS ALWAYS SOMETHING MORE THAN A DREAM...
CAN WE SMILE AGAIN AFTER SO MUCH SUFFERING AND PAIN????? IT'S NOT EASY, BUT I SAY..... YES, WE CAN.... NEVER GIVE IT UP THAT'S WHAT I LEARNED FROM MY EXPERIENCE AND I'M NOT SAYING THAT NOW EV'RYTHING IS OK FOR ME I'M JUST SAYING, I LOVE MUSIC I LOVE LIFE I LOVE TO FIGHT FOR BEING MYSELF AND LET THE OTHERS BEING THEIRSELVES....... "PEACE & LOVE" IT'S TRUE!!!!!
