Altough I used to compose some tunes during my early twenties and eventually published an album with some of them in 2003, a new impulse to compose new music came to me from joining in 2012 the Fanfareduloup Orchestra, an ensemble producing four to six shows a year containing original pieces. This impulse has been nurtured by a series of lucky circumstances that made possible for my music to be more and more performed and recorded and for me to get in touch with the composer Andrea Portera, which as a consequence pushed me to get more committed to this side of my musical creativity.
