Homage to Angelo Gilardino - A life for music

I am happy to announce that the Brilliant Classics will distribute the double CD "Homage to Angelo Gilardino - A life for music", a new double CD that will contain a selection of works that I am most fond of and that I have studied, performed and recorded in these last fifteen years of recording activity.

This is my personal tribute to the italian composer and together with the Musicare Concert Season scheduled for the autumn months of this 2021, it wants to be my eightieth birthday gift to the author who inspired me in the research on the repertoire I am conducting today and leads me to continually discover how much there is still to learn.

The details (repertoire, release date, etc.) will be announced very soon.
There will also be a couple of new compositions.
