About

I’m an Italian composer and professional pianist specializing in original music for visual media, branded content, video games and sonic identities.

My work combines piano, orchestral writing, electronic textures and sound design to create music that supports storytelling, reinforces visual communication and gives each project a distinctive musical identity.

With a background in classical and contemporary piano through the London College of Music, I bring strong compositional skills, attention to detail and a structured approach to every production. Rather than relying on generic stock solutions, I develop each piece around the project’s narrative, visual language, audience and emotional goals.
