With a view to change, variations on the themes followed one another even in the very vast and rich context of classical music. Not necessarily by canceling all that repertoire of excellent and unforgettable as well as timeless composers, who with their works are still extremely modern and current today; but more than anything else trying to give a new panache to the classical panorama of music, perhaps also to make it more captivating and interesting in the eyes of the youngest, since some of them still do not approach very often the music thus interpreted, because it is “boring”, or worse still “soporific”. So in the eyes and ears of all, an artist like Francesco Pisana, an Italian pianist, bassist and composer born in 1978 in Catania, who since 1998 has become the bearer, together with other musicians, of a new musical genre, where they meet two very different styles. This young boy reinterprets with his instruments (Piano Forte and Electric Bass) the most famous pieces of classical music, transforming it into modern rock, then ranging from Beethoven, Bach, Vivaldi and many others, even going so far as to combine two songs together in an imaginative mash up. , giving a new sense and rhythm to known pieces and compositions. Who would not at least want to listen to Vivaldi’s Winter or Beethoven’s fifth or even a Tchaikovsky medley revisited in a Prog-rock key?
A young man full of smiles, who when he plays frees energy from every note, from every sound, and perhaps also from every fiber of his being; cordial and polite in interviews, even alone and accompanied exclusively by his faithful companion the electric bass can give strong emotions and heartbeat, probably thanks to his savoir-faire. But what Francesco Pisana clearly demonstrates is that he is a masterful pianist and bassist. excellent performer even of purely and simply classic pieces, this is the opportunity to attend the performance of an artist a little out of the canons, who manages to convey all the joy of playing his instrument to the public, whatever his age. With the hope that perhaps he will indulge in some of his most virtuous and particular pieces, perhaps as an encore at the end of the concert. It has a past rich in musical collaborations with world-famous artists, today dedicated to re-proposing the great works of classical composers in a modern key. His debut as a soloist was born with Frame, who is the founder, but driven by the search for more thrilling and captivating sounds and interpretations, also in terms of technique and absolute knowledge of the works, he founded a super band in Germany formed by musicians of various nationalities the SymphosiuM passing precisely from Italy, Germany, Austria and Russia, driven by the desire to continue to improve and experience new knowledge and different cultures especially in the musical field.
Music is a gift and I thank God for this magnificent gift he has given me”, this is how Francesco Pisana sees music as a divine gift. The new single WINTER STORM is released on 12 December, a tribute to the famous Antonio Vivaldi in the reinterpretation of one of the works of the 4 seasons L’INVERNO and the album containing the next tracks will be released in February 2022. We just have to wait for this new SymphosiuM masterpiece.
