I am a composer and exclusive author associated with Ricordi from 1981 to 1995, and I have been composing and arranging for Mina since 1985. My work spans writing songs, creating arrangements, and collaborating closely with the singer on many memorable tracks, including songs written with my daughter Viola. Beyond the studio, I have written music for films and TV, produced albums with Saar Records, and in recent years focused on ambitious concert works for piano and orchestra, some of which have been choreographed and danced by my daughter Vera. I remain dedicated to exploring new sounds and collaborations across stage and screen.
