I received my first musical rudiments from my father, who taught me the notes from an old Waldensian hymnbook. Already at the age of eight I was regularly studying piano, in private music schools; at sixteen I took the path of the conservatory until the lower completion. Following a serious accident I had during the period of military service that left me disabled in one leg, I abandoned my studies. Despite everything, I never stopped being fascinated by studying in general and by musical research: in fact, I independently studied the language of jazz and pop, training myself independently by assiduously visiting libraries, bookstores and museums, as well as concerts of all kinds. As a volunteer I attended choirs and cultural associations (Pergine Spettacolo Aperto). In adulthood I resumed my musical studies by enrolling in the traditional composition course at the conservatory, graduating in 2018 and, putting my whole life back into play, I enrolled in evening school, obtaining a diploma in human sciences. I studied composition in depth with the two-year course in Composition for Theater and Cinema at the Bonporti Conservatory of Trento and musical analysis with the master's degree in Musical Theory and Analysis at UNICAL. I held the role of Kappelmeister at the Evangelical Church A.D.I. of Trento, and accompanist pianist at various polyphonic choirs in the province. I attended various courses and masterclasses including the course in Orchestra Conducting with Maestro F. Dorsi in Todi, Music Master Management with Maestro A. Portera, Music for Cinema with Maestro Carlo Crivelli. In 2010 I participated in the workshop held by Luciano Chessa on the reconstruction of the Russolo Intonarumori orchestra: the project was organized by Transart of Bolzano with a concert at the MART of Rovereto and in Berlin at the Festspiele Maerzmusic Festival. As a composer I collaborate with various artistic realities of the city (Estro Teatro, MotoContrario Essenble, Trento Religion Today Filmfestival) and I have participated in various seasons of Mondi Sonori di Trento.

    uniE603 One day in Aleppo
    The music for the docufilm "One day in Aleppo" was composed to create a soundscape that evokes Middle Eastern and Arabic tonalities. This work focuses on using traditional motifs and instruments, but with a unique touch: I employed Western instruments to create local inflections, capturing the film's specific atmosphere and emotions. The entire piece was composed with Finale, and then recorded and edited using Pro Tools.
    uniE603 Fantasia
    This symphonic fantasy is my arrangement and transcription of themes from Riccardo Zandonai's opera "Giulietta e Romeo." Using the orchestral language of Italian late-Romanticism, I recreated the opera's main themes for a mid-sized orchestra, blending dramatic passion and intense melody. The piece was composed with Finale 27 and produced in high quality using Pro Tools.
