MY STORY

A toy keyboard under the bed

It all began with a toy keyboard I used to teach myself how to play, hiding it under the bed, afraid to reveal my artistic sensitivity to my parents. But my father noticed and bought me my first real keyboard.

Since then, I studied the basics of piano and keyboard through the internet, completely self-taught, and to this day I have never had a teacher. Very soon, I felt the urge to compose music, and inspired by symphonic metal bands like Nightwish, Rhapsody of Fire, and Stratovarius, I formed my own band. We performed in several concerts and recorded an EP together. In 2014, I left the band to start my professional journey, working on my first commissioned project: the Original Soundtrack for the fantasy novel The Song of the Mountains by Cristian Vitali.
During those years, I composed original soundtracks for best-selling novels including Hyperversum, Time Deal and Absence, working for years under the name Age Of Chronicles Music Productions.

Nature, Silence, Fresh air

In 2019, I left my hometown of Brindisi and moved to Porretta Terme, a very small town in the North of Italy, a place where I could have a deeper connection to nature and silence, surrounded by beautiful woods, valleys, and rivers - the only place that truly feels like home!

Around that time, I graduated as a Sound Engineer at Fonoprint Studios in Bologna, with the iconic master and Grammy Award winner, Maurizio Biancani (Andrea Bocelli, Ennio Morricone, Zucchero). Then I attended several specialization courses around Italy on Dolby Atmos systems, acoustic simulation, music hardware, electroacoustics, live sound engineering and line array systems.

In 2020, I started producing long, relaxing music on my YouTube channel and several videos went viral online, allowing me to gather an ever-growing number of souls longing to find serenity and peace through music.

In 2022, I released Fly, a very special album in collaboration with Italian and African artists, dedicated to my spiritual journey and my faith in Christ. The record, which completely sold out in a few weeks, helped fund the mission Healthcare and Health Education in Central Africa and Ethiopia by the Capuchin Missionary Center. That same year, I composed the Hymn of the Church Santuario della Madonna del Faggio (Italy) and performed the music for the 300th Anniversary of its foundation.

A Soft Piano Journey

In 2023, I decided to completely leave the epic music of book soundtracks to focus on relaxing ambient piano music, recording the EP The world moves for love, pursuing a minimalist, intimate and meditative sound. In 2025, I released my new album Deep Harmonies, featuring 10 introspective pieces that invite listeners on a journey through the hidden forests of the soul, in a special collaboration with the American violinist Kitts McBryde (Michael Bublé, Sting).

Currently on my YouTube channel, I arrange well-known pieces in a Soft Felt Piano version, playing with the characteristic sound of my piano albums. I also play relaxing improvisations in beautiful natural places near my home, an important part of my mission: letting Creation become music, a living vibration of praise!

With this musical journey and an obsessive, continuous search for sound, I aim to use music as a tool for introspection, self-discovery, and inner peace. With widespread appreciation and a steadily growing following, I find my fullest realization in this project, dedicating my entire career to Christ, my Lord and my biggest source of inspiration.
