Intorno (Around)

« Are we or are we not standing on an invisible, small spinning top, warmed by a sunbeam, on a little grain of sand gone mad that spins and spins and spins, without knowing the reason why, without fulfilling any destiny, as if it enjoyed spinning around like that… »
Said Luigi Pirandello in Il fu Mattia Pascal, one of the most famous expressions of his pessimism. I’ve been very fascinated by this “cosmic” vision and have made it my own for many years. However, music, conceived as a creative act, by its own definition denies a senseless perspective (if nothing has meaning, is there any reason to write?). Intorno focuses almost exclusively on one thematic element that appears constantly spinning on itself. To me, it marks the total freedom from this perspective: even if we were on an “invisible spinning top”, or on a “small sand grain gone insane” that wouldn’t make life any less worth living.

I just released my album for piano solo Spring Will Come: conceived as an aural space for listeners to feel safe and connect with their own emotions, it's a journey through the first lockdown back in March 2020, when we all experienced fear, boredom and frustration but also courage, strength and hope.

It’s music only when it’s shared: let’s make some together! ... more
