Purported dangers:
«The [glass] harmonica excessively stimulates the nerves, plunges the player into a nagging depression and hence into a dark and melancholy mood that is apt method for slow self-annihilation. If you are suffering from any kind of nervous disorder, you should not play it; if you are not yet ill you should not play it; if you are feeling melancholy you should not play it.»

Ghosts and Lizards

Ghosts and Lizards - ringtone & preview

I composed Ghosts and Lizards using a “found sound” in my sample library, which I recorded randomly a few years ago. It is a sort of a techno track, in which, towards the end, I develop a stochastic rhythm of percussions. After working on the piece, I found some of the music scary, and thought of the things that could possibly scare me the most (idiosyncrasy), or scare the less… at the end is the same.


Ho composto Ghosts and Lizards basandomi su un vecchio campione, una sorta di suono ritrovato, che avevo registrato alcuni anni fa. È una traccia techno, verso la fine sviluppo dei ritmi stocastici nelle percussioni. Fantasmi e lucertole che possono spaventare… o possono attrarre: alcune idiosincrasie in un titolo che ha un significato particolare.

Bio:
I have composed music for documentaries, short movies, advertising and dance halls.
The short movie Moto perpetuo (directed by Camillo Valle) resulted prizewinner in several competitions: Premio Montano (Verona, 2015), Blackbird Film Festival (New York City, NY, U.S.A., 2015), Clorofilla Film Festival (Grosseto, 2015), and nominated at the David di Donatello short movies (2014). Elia’s music for film resulted prizewinner also at “Visioni Ambientali” Cineteca di Bologna (2017, third prize), and finalist at the Video Concorso Pasinetti in Venice (2017). 
More about my background: I am a conductor, composer, pianist and musicologist. I hold a Ph.D. in musicology from the University of Bologna (Italy), and master’s degrees in pianoforte, conducting and composition. I studied conducting in Fiesole and Pescara (Italy), and at the Tanglewood Music Center (Lenox, MA, USA).
I have held scholarships at the Fondazione Cini, at Harvard University, at the Library of Congress, at the Paul Sacher Stiftung, at Yale University.
I have conducted orchestras such as Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna, Accademia Filarmonica di Bologna, Orchestra Giovanile Santa Cecilia, L’viv Virtuosos.
My repertoire ranges from Baroque to contemporary symphonic, operatic and balletic music. My compositions include a variety of genres, from Neoclassical to Electronic, and are used as soundtracks. As a pianist I am specialized in the Italian operatic repertoire, and in the Italian 20th Century piano music. My musicological research includes Neoclassical Music, Serial Music, 18th and 19th Century Opera, Ballet Music, Performing Practice, Music and Fascism.
I have reconstructed and edited Paisiello-Respighi, La Serva Padrona, Schott Music GmbH (2014), an opera-ballet I recently discovered and premiered in Bologna in 2014.
