“Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, light to the imagination and charm and gaiety to everything”- Plato.

Cannella’s music embodies this maxim. The musical intellect he posses shines through his productions, which stem from his classical roots. His unique productions create rich harmonic textures and progressions. Rhythmically fused percussion and unique melodic motifs all come together to make a symphonic cochlear experience that is irresistible to the ear. The ability to make a true musical extrasensory connection
to his listeners eclipses his peers.
