de Clario presented his first public sound performance at the Clifton Hill Organ Factory in Melbourne in 1977. 
This was his first experience touching the piano keys and his intention for both this and many subsequent improvisatory performances was to focus on not-knowing as a gift that would allow him to explore the chromatic range of the keyboard, consequently publicly privileging with his audiences the wonder of discovery above the display of musical knowledge. 
In 1992 de Clario began to improvise at the keyboard blindfolded, further complicating any reliance on an a priori understanding of the keyboard’s possibilities, in this way advantaging whatever musical  ‘accidents’ occurred above the instrument’s predictability. 
In 1995 he began to use voice to explore popular songs of the early 20th century, dramatically slowing the beat and using the keyboard in the way medieval instruments functioned as drones to more effectively support the voice’s storytelling.  
de Clario is currently serving as Deputy Chair of the Arts Mildura Board and is the Director of the museum of innocence mildura.
