Art and artists - Music, photography, fashion, painting, people - I love people - is that so strange? - piano (a concert grand - size does matter!), horses (for real - I love horses - I used to compete professionally), comedy, gardening (I'm a farm boy at heart), architecture, travel, languages, movies, good food & wine... and Tuscany, where I grew up... one of the most beautiful places in the world...
Music
Chopin, Liszt, Schubert, Beethoven, Bach, Puccini, Verdi, Bellini, Wagner, Mahler, Strauss, Debussy, Bizet, Berlioz, Sibelius, Dvorjak, Saint-Saens, Rachmaninov - and anything passionate and beautiful as well as music that is beautifully sad.

Nino Rota, Bernard Herman, Eric Korngold, Morricone, Howard Shore, Danny E - any great movie scores - (since I am now writing some myself).

About me: After much struggle, my new fashion line should be out early next year, but in the meanwhile I've been making a few haute coûture creations for special clients... and those are about to hit the ball rooms of Europe any day now... I've been working with a wonderful designer hot from Christian Dior/John Galliano haute couture and another from Pucci in Florence... amazing talent! Wonderful fabrics! Anyway - it's been a great excuse to spend time in Paris and Florence... so that's okay by me. Gotta love those cities.
I've also been busy composing movie scores and putting together an album of my classical music - as well as music for dressage.
The last two movies I wrote and produced are now finished! Yay! One - a comedy - we shot on the back lot at Paramount, and one in Palm Springs - very fashiony, surreal and Fellini-esque, shot in Italian(!).
The film premiered at the Palm Springs Film Festival and then did the festival circuit.
Next one - I'm directing myself - cameras roll soon! I've also been helping a friend shoot a documentary on Human Trafficking - very grim subject. And the fashion shoots keep on rolling too! I just shot two brilliant CD covers for two gorgeous singers. Crazy!
Who I'd like to meet: Cool people - anyone into music, literature, photography, film, fashion or the arts in general - LA, London, New York, Italy... anywhere
