“Scorrere” is the third and final track on ALESSANDRO DE FUSCO‘s new album “Nel Silenzio.” Each track on the album deals with moments that are repeated whenever the artist finds himself immersed in nature in the mountains. “Scorrere” represents the time he spends in the eddies of streams and rivers during his hikes. It is the time he devotes to himself, letting it flow unhurriedly, remembering those moments every day and breathing that mountain air ever closer to his music.

Alessandro De Fusco is a guitarist and composer from Campania, currently a guitar teacher at the “Lizard Accademie Musicali di Roma.” He studied classical guitar at the “Nicola Sala di Benevento” conservatory. Parallel to the classical path he also deepened the study of electric guitar at the Lizard Academy in Rome.
