MySpace a place for friends

I was born in Naples, Italy, in 1978, and started playing when I was very young, studying piano at first but choosing guitar at last. From blues to pop to rock, in Naples I cut through different musical experiences, until I moved to Rome in 2001 and decided to dedicate myself fully to solo acoustic guitar. When I first listened to Michael Hedges's striking album Aerial Boundaries, in 2003, I started studying technique and composition with Pino Forastiere and approached contemporary music, in particular American Minimalism (Steve Reich). My first solo project is called Particolareuno and is about to be published by US label Candyrat (Dec 2008). The CD and my live performances all feature entirely original compositions, ranging from the funk of Spankie to the intimate melodies of The Return, to tracks of more complex execution and performance like Metronix, Batman, Alexander Supertramp and Minimalaction, composition for 12 guitars which I usually perform with the help of a multitrack machine.
