Lucio Amanti

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Canadian Born, he grow up and studied Cello and Composition in Italy and France. After few years of orchestra experience, chamber music he won a scholarship that allowed him to enter in 2004 in the studio of the legendary cellist Janos Starker at Indiana University. After two years of intense study he decided to explore also different approaches to cello playing compounding his already strong classical preparation with a period of studies in the Jazz field with Doctor David Baker becoming the first cellist at Indiana University ever to achieve a MM in Jazz studies. After finishing his studies he decided to dedicate all his time in trying to find a personal balance between musical tradition and experimental approaches: he started his search on the culturally exploding city of Berlin.

Mr. Amanti has recently finished his first commercial recording (that is going soon to be distributed on I-tune, MSN music at [1] and other worldwide online music stores) where he propose an approach to the cello that keeps the classical and jazz inspirations constantly in balance between them using the improvisation and the use of electronics to create the illusion of either a string quartet or a rhythm section. He is also designing a new series of shows that will features the synergy between Cello/electronics and images projected and edited live during the performance.

He performed and collaborated with: Luis Bacalov, Alun Francis, Luigi A. Bianchi, René Clemencic, David Sanchez, Jeff Gartner, Tiempo Libre, Ricardo Lorenz, David Baker, Roberto De Simone, Yuval Gotlibovich and others.


I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to work with this fine young man (Dr. David N. Baker)

He is a serious, dedicated musician and I am convinced of his potential to succeed. I strongly support his quest. (Dr. Janos Starker)

[…] He marks a very interesting way to discover the enormous potential of an instrument typically classical, very well used also into the Jazz (Marco Losavio www.jazzitalia.net)

How the hell you do that? (Many colleagues)
