I am a cellist and composer whose repertoire spans from Baroque—performed also on period instruments—to Contemporary works. Whether interpreting historical music with authenticity or engaging with new musical languages, my work is rooted in curiosity and expressive clarity.
As a composer, I take inspiration from nature and science, allowing these disciplines to inform the textures, structures, and emotional landscapes of my music.
I graduated with distinction from both the Royal College of Music in London and the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome, two of Europe’s leading conservatoires.


A perfect combination of knowledge, technical skills, natural lyricism, fluent sound and fine musical instinct
