My story (English)




I was born in Italy, on December 22, 1974.First steps in The music domain were inspired from my uncle and my elder brother at age 5.
I just started my musical studies at 14 as a self taught one.
At 17 i attended a class in Jazz harmony Jazz wt Mr. Tony Russo a R.A.I TV Italian Orchestra drummer and percussionist.
Three Years later i moved in Rome and after having passed my audition, i studied there electric guitar at C.A.P.S.T music tech school, with a programme related to renown Musicians Institute in Los Angeles. That school definitely offered big teachings about different music styles such as Blues, Jazz, Funk, Rock, Fusion, Acoustics.
There i studied with: Gianfranco Diletti, Scott Henderson, Mike Stern, Frank Gambale, Steve Vai.
I just love great music, especially the one made from the heart
Blues, Jazz, Funk.

My experiences I perfomed in various locations and venues such as: Big Mama in Rome, Cafe Latino in Rome, Radio Londra in Rome, Cube in Rome, enormous Blues Bar in London which i emotionally recall as a big experience as far as The Ronnie' Scott, The spice of life in London, Marquee Club in London, Palace Hotel, Sheraton Hotel, Villa Romanazzi in Bari - Italy, Castello monaci in Lecce-Italy, and other ones.




My big passion is composition.On May 2006, i have forwarded two tracks at renown Italian guitar magazine Chitarre, with which i passed a large selection to enter in 12 finalists to attend 9th Acoustic Guitar International Meeting in Sarzana (SP), Italy, with the jury made of great international musicians.
On that stage have performed: Woody Man (UK), Gabin Dabirè trio, Bob Brozman from the USA, Clive Carol and steve Howe (UK) of famed group YES.
In December 2007 i played with famed Wendy D. Lewis (Earth Wind & fire , Jisto Funk, etc.) I have written over 20 instrumental compositions, which received highly positive critical acclaims onto various tech guitar magazines.
