"It is not difficult to compose, but it is incredibly difficult to eliminate unnecessary notes.There are so many melodies that roam the air that I must be careful not to step on them." Johannes Brahms

Towards the end of Brahms life, he compose for Clara Schumann some of the most passionate and introspective short piano pieces.

"Silence, you could scream, there would still be silence. Indeed, I write to you from a strange place."

Chopin, Letter from Valldemossa

Chopin was suffering from hallucinations when he wrote this prelude.

One night, when he was alone in his room during a thunderstorm, he was playing piano and it sounded as if his playing echoed the sound of the thunderstorm.

The full story of the Raindrop Prelude was written by George Sand (aka Amantine Aurore Lucile Dupin) in her novel 'Histoire de ma Vie'

"Music would take over at the point at which words become powerless, with the one and only object of expressing that which nothing but music could express." Claude Debussy

This little known piece of Rachmaninov follows a poem by Ekaterina Andreyena Beketova:

"In the morning, at daybreak, over the dewy grass, I will go to breathe the crisp dawn;

and in the fragrant shade, where the lilac crowds, I will go to seek my happiness.

In life, only one happiness it was fated for me to discover, and that happiness lives in the lilacs;

in the green boughs, in the fragrant bunches, my poor happiness blossoms."

Schumann composed the Symphonic Studies on a musical theme received by the amateur Baron von Fricken in 1834, father of his fiancée, the lyrical singer Ernestine. In the 1890s after his death, Johannes Brahms taking care of the re-release of it, reincluded 5 variations previously excluded, and never played in public.

Alfred Eric Leslie Satie (Honfleur, 17 May 1866 -- Paris, 1 July 1925) was a French composer and pianist. Starting with his first composition in 1884, he signed his name as Erik Satie. He composed melancholic music of Gymnopedies in 1888 inspired by the poetry 'Les Antiques' by Patrice Contamine. Towards the end of 1896 Claude Debussy decided to orchestrate them by building a second melodic line himself.

"Music is a mysterious mathematical process whose elements are part of Infinity. There is nothing more musical than a sunset." Claude Debussy

"La musica non è solo un linguaggio ma una trascendenza, che è ciò che ci porta oltre. I silenzi hanno un suono, anche in musica. Non esiste l'ultima nota, è un dato di fatto. Perché l'ultima nota che suona uno strumento è la nota che inizia l'altro"

The idea behind the concept of ABYSS was to continue the splendidly told journey of the astronomer Carl Sagan in his famous series "Cosmos",

musicising some of his most inspired passages, and looking for a personal existentialist reading key, in the context of the correlative objective that permeates my compositions.

On this page you can preorder the album in the only physical edition that I will make.

Every train I took, every day spent in company, reminded me to take care of the distances, because they are the measure of the closeness of our hearts
