A self-taught musician, Massimo, who was born and raised in
Rome, Italy, started playing at the age of twelve.
He performed with many groups throughout the country,
Including “I Percussionisti di Roma”, a percussion ensemble.
He was also part of several Jazz festivals in Europe.
In 1986 Massimo came to the United States and has been performing and recording with a variety of bands.
After teaching privately for a few years, he has since focused his energies mostly on composing and recording ; he describes
his music and drumming style as “…an attempt to bring the listener’s awareness to a higher level…
He believes that his music is intended to fill those many musical voids that exist around us. He draws his inspiration mainly from surrealism, along with a basic ingredient: Improvisation.
