Happy to tell that my solo piano album “Impressions, Improvisations & Compositions” has now been released in Finland by German label Ozella Music!

The international release will be postponed again due to different Corona-related issues, and will take place in a few months – new date will be announced soon!

Also my concerts abroad seem very unsure for now… but at least I’ll play a lot in Finland, which is nice. The tour dates are here, welcome to the shows!

Orchestra Nazionale Della Luna‘s new album “There’s Still Life on Earth” is out now on BMC Records! Read the press release & liner notes and listen to samples here!

Unfortunately the release tour (April 2 to 9) got coronated and had to be postponed to October 21 to 27. More info to come soon. But the album is out anyway, and it’s fantastic !!!

Enjoying the sun & the seafood in Andalucia until mid-February, writing lots of new music and playing only a few gigs here and there. Feels good!
