Hi, I'm Marco Gennaro, a passionate guitarist and composer with extensive experience in live musical performances and studio sessions. I've played in various musicals across Germany and am deeply involved in the progressive metal scene as both a founder and composer. Music is not just my profession but my way of connecting and expressing creativity. With a background in musicology from Humboldt Universität and practical training in electric guitar and music theory, I bring a nuanced understanding of music both academically and practically. I love collaborating with different bands and session projects and enjoy teaching guitar to the next generation of musicians.
