I'm an Italian musician born in Sardinia in 1973. I've used to play electric guitar and bass for nearly 30 years and 6 years ago I started to play classical guitar. I love every nice music, from everywhere and for everytime Italian, English, Spanish, French, Argentine, etc. I’ I started playing the guitar 30 years ago. The guitar is part of Sardinian culture that comes from years of Spanish rule that have left indelible marks in the language, customs and traditions. I play different styles of music (rock, funky, pop, classical) with various band and artists, and play different stringed instruments (classical guitar, electric guitar, bass guitar). I made two records. A pop-rock album called “10 Ideas”, where I played all the instruments and mixed and mastered tracks. The other album of classical guitar called “Nylon”. Below here are the songs of my repertoire: MILONGA – Jorge Cardoso ;LAGRIMA – Francisco Tarrega; 1 ETUDE – VILLA LOBOS; VERANO PORTENO – A. Piazzolla; TANGO EN SKAI – Roland Dyens; MARIA – Francisco Tarrega; ADELITA – Francisco Tarrega; ORACION POR TODOS – Barrios; MALAGUENA – Francisco Tarrega; CAVATINA – Stanley Myers; VALSE EN SKAI – Roland Dyens; DON PEREZ FREIRE – Barrios ; LIBERTANGO – Astor Piazzolla; GRAN VALS – Francisco Tarrega; LEYENDA - Albeniz ; RECUERDOS DE LA ALHAMBRA – Francisco Tarrega; VILLANCICO DE NAVIDAD – Barrios; CAPRICHE ARABE – Tarrega; TANGO – Francisco Tarrega; CONFESSION – Barrios; LA FOULE – Roland Dyens. Able to play different string instruments, bass, classical guitar and electric guitar. Able to play different styles and genres, funky, rock, blues, waltzer and tango. Able to play alone and in band. Background vocal. Confident in a range of computer software programs including the music software DAW(Digital Audio Workstation), Reaper, Cubase, MS Office Suite, internet. Music is just a language.
