Impatto for sax soprano and piano

raduated from Conservatories of Foggia and Pescara with degrees in Composition and Piano, he has won thirteen national and international competitions, as well as 6 second prizes, in performances of his own compositions.
As composer/pianist he recorded six CDs. In the liner notes of the most recent of them, the ''Antonio Cocomazzi Project'' ('08) performed with the trumpeter Mike Applebaum, Ennio Morricone wrote: ''...an outstanding work, [...] original in its forms and musical content [...]''.

In '97 he recorded ''Suite for Friends'', a work half way between classical music and jazz, which was presented by Giorgio Gaslini who wrote in the sleeve note: ''his music and his piano playing are of an exceptional quality''. RAI-Trade/Rara Records subsequently published Nonostante tutto ('06- '08), realized with saxophone player Mario Marzi, and Pensieri ('08), a CD including piano and string quartet and piano compositions.
