Z O N E is a project, a group, an idea in continuous evolution that revolves around my music.
I play Live Electronics or a MIDI Electric Guitar whose fingerboard,
as a virtual ensemble, is crossed by renowned interpreters, inhabitants of Z O N E:
percussionists Maurizio BenOmar, Jonny Axelsson, Kuniko Kato,
the voices of Luisa Castellani, Ursula Joss and Marco Bortoli,
sound engineers as Alvise Vidolin and Davide Rocchesso, Maurizio Maltese, maestro of Kali,
actress Elena Callegari, the fascinating words and voice of Roberto Sanesi and Thor Vilhjalmsson,
the flutes of Manuel Zurria, Birgit Nolte, Antonio Politano, Kees Boeke and Carsten Eckert,
the Sax of Jörgen Petterson, Pierre Stephane Meugé, Federico Mondelci and Jam-Paoletti,
the piano of Marianne Schröder, Oscar Pizzo, Massimo Somenzi,
the trombone of Ivo Nilsson, the cello of Mario Brunello and Francesco Dillon,
the guitar of Elena Càsoli, Jürgen Ruck, Magnus Andersson and Geoffrey Morris,
videomakers as Gianni Di Capua, Marcos Jorge, Max Bertolai,
paintings by Ferruccio Bigi and Salvatore Zito.
These artists are among todays protagonists of contemporary thought. Skattered all over the globe,
they flow in and out of the Z O N E: on stage we always are more people than audience can see.
