I'm Antonio Porrino (Tonino).
Graduated in Physics in March 1979, I was Researcher in Theoretical Nuclear Physics at the "Federico II" University of Naples until November 2019.
I studied music, initially at the Conservatory of San Pietro a Maiella in Naples and then self-taught piano, organ and composition.
I have been married to Anna since July 1982 and we have 5 children, Fabio, Luca, Francesca, Cecilia, Vincenzo and 2 grandchildren, Antonio and Sofia, Fabio's children, married to Sara.
I founded the polyphonic choir "Vicus Novanensis" in 1992 and in 2019 "I Cantori di Maria", which have collected the legacy of the numerous "long distance adoptions" of the previous choir.
The musical activity takes place mainly at the "Pontifical Minor Basilica of Maria Santissima Assunta" in Santa Maria a Vico (Italy).
I have composed music of various genres.
My music would like to express and transmit feelings of peace, serenity and joy, contrasting those of war, hatred and oppression that seem to prevail on planet Earth, causing the degradation of the natural environment that guards us.
Some of my music is also on youtube (porrinomusic)

Sono sposato con Anna dal luglio 1982 e abbiamo 5 figli, Fabio, Luca, Francesca, Cecilia, Vincenzo e 2 nipoti, Antonio e Sofia, figli di Fabio, sposato con Sara. 
Ho fondato nel 1992 il Coro polifonico "Vicus Novanensis" e nell'anno 2019 "I Cantori di Maria", che hanno raccolto l'eredità delle numerose "adozioni a distanza" del precedente coro.

Ho composto brani musicali di vario genere. 
La mia musica vorrebbe esprimere e trasmettere sentimenti di pace, di serenità e di gioia, contrastando quelli di guerra, odio e sopraffazione che sembrano prevalere sul pianeta Terra, provocando la degradazione dell'ambiente naturale che ci custodisce.

Placing sounds side by side to compare them or contrast them or to create an interesting effect. Juxtapositioning sounds creates unexpected emotions.

Bachground:  I do not use AI for composing music.   I like and write in many styles of music.  I  play piano, synth, guitar, bass, bodhran and I sing from time to time.  Went to the United Stated to learn jazz piano and was recommended to study Contemporary Classical Music. So I did that for a few years.

Apart from not using AI for composing music.  I do not use loops such as Apple Loops.  I will create my own loops if I want to use the technique in EDM.  As far as sampling is concerned, I make my own most of the time but have and will use a few supplied as sounds included in instruments by the manufacturers for use by the owners of the instruments.  I do realize that DAWs may include Ai technology for mixing and mastering.  So I cannot say that I am completely free from Ai usage at the moment but am gradually shifting things out of the box. I like to feel my own mind flowing freely in my music without plastic manipulation.  

I am currently moving out many of my activities to various other kinds of platforms available for musicians.  Now I am concentrating on writing a few hundred tracks.  On Sound Cloud I have met very interesting and nice musicians and that was excellent experience. 

Some of my Favorite Artists:  J. H. Bach, Beethoven, Debussy, Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk, Chick Corea, Surgeon, Mingus, Carlos Santana, Julie London, Mark Verbos, Julia Bondhar, Elpiverse, Sarah Landry.

Finally. Sampling without written permission from me of any of the material posted by this account is strictly prohibited.

I follow the path of Love Devotion and Surrender as followed by artists such as Carlos Santana.  I am totally devoted to music.

I've been a performing guitarist since the early sixties, survived the hippie era. 
I was a member of several respected aussie rock/blues and original rock bands, such as the late sixties W.G. Berg, Headband in the early seventies, Fraternity MKII and Mickey Finn 1976 - 1992. Later I joined the blues band Hoy-Hoy! until about 2017.

I now don't play live due to an illness but, as you can see, I do my 'thang' at my home studio, a computer based Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) enjoying music making immensely!

I hope you enjoy my music as much as I do making it. :)

Since 1998 I made and released lots of sound art, music, and noise, and wrote and published lots of poetry. You can find most of it online, in record stores, and in bookstores. On May 28 2025 I returned to my roots, and started working low profile on new folk music, like in 1998. Inspired by Syd Barrett, Robert Calvert, Chris Karrer, Peter Hammill, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Richard Hell, Daniel Johnston, Roky Erickson,  Dave Bixby, Jandek, James Douglas Morrison, jazz, modern poetry, and painting I set on a trip that knows no end. Hope you're with me.
