Extra Information Pedal drum 29" prepared with 3 heavy bells (11", 9",7") or 3 little splash cymbals on the membrane. A composer writing nowadays can not ignore that most of the sounds animating our life are produced sintetically. My music is a reflection on the musical suggestions that surround us and a recall through the production of unknown sounds by traditional instruments, in constant search of abnormal emissions of sounds, touching an enchanting alea. "Ecological" music with a human touch therefore, gambling on unpredictability of every live musical performance, trying to force the acoustic instruments to find new sounds in order to express adequately our present. Perfect to reach this goal, obviously, is the large family of percussions, magical protagonist of most part of my compositions: instruments that can offer unpredictable halos and resonances.
