a long long time ago

Flow of Thoughts is a Francesco Adornetto’s solo piano piece that captures the essence of moving thoughts, evoking a sense of nostalgia. The notes intertwine in a continuous flow, similar to a stream gently flowing through a landscape of memories.

The melody begins with sweet and melancholic tones, evoking images of past moments. The rhythm is delicate yet steady, akin to a thought that gradually develops. The harmonies are rich and complex, adding emotional depth and a sense of introspection.

As the piece progresses, the intensity grows, reflecting the energy of a stream of thoughts that becomes increasingly lively and turbulent. Fast and arpeggiated passages convey a sense of urgency, as if memories and reflections are emerging with force.

Towards the conclusion, the music returns to a reflective calm, closing the circle and bringing the listener back to a state of peaceful contemplation. "Flow of Thoughts" is an emotional journey, a musical meditation on the thoughts and feelings that surface from the depths of the mind, offering an immersive and touching experience.

Flow Of Thoughts

Epic Theme

In Search Of Purpose blends delicate solo piano by Francesco Adornetto with the haunting, ethereal voice of Blackbird — a sonic reflection on longing, surrender, and inner stillness.
This piece invites the listener into a meditative space, where questions echo softly and answers float just beyond the horizon.
Perfect for moments of contemplation and quiet connection.

In Search Of Purpose

In Search of Purpose – Vocals by Blackbird

As You Asked is not a piece about certainty, but about trust — the kind that is born when two souls meet through creation. As if the piano itself understood the question and, without hesitation, simply replied: as you asked.
It was born from an exchange between Francesco Adornetto and Jessica Brown Bains, from a simple phrase that holds an entire intention: to offer something genuine, without hesitation. Each note is a wordless reply, a musical gesture that doesn’t aim to explain, but simply to be — like lifelong friends — just as requested, just as felt.
Within the flow of the composition, there is a delicate balance between listening and revealing. The higher phrases — quick and fleeting — feel like whispered thoughts, while the deep and steady foundation tells of a profound intimacy, one that reveals itself only to those who know how to ask sincerely.

As You Asked

Donde El Gesto Habla (“Where the Gesture Speaks”) was born from an unexpected invitation to perform at an international animal-rights event. I wasn’t ready for the stage, yet the gesture—someone truly caring about my music and what it stands for—spoke louder than words.
The piece doesn’t run; it walks. Two even steps, like two hands reaching for each other. Deep down a low heartbeat holds the breath; above it, a gentle voice answers in fragments—one held word, then two whispers—climbing and descending in small steps. The wave swells, lays down, grows quiet again. And often, before it fades, it leaves a tiny falling sigh, like a softly spoken “yes.”
Dedicated to those who give voice to the voiceless.

I’m a composer, songwriter, and technologist working across genres, from cinematic scores to alternative rock and stripped-back acoustic. My creative process is guided by instinct, emotional tone, and a grounding in early piano, guitar, vocal training, and music theory fundamentals. I play guitar, bass, drums, piano and was lead vocalist in a few bands.

Moments, people, or emotional energy can spark melodies or textures in my mind. I often hear complete orchestral pieces internally, as if they already exist and my role is to translate them into sound.

Most tracks begin as a voice note or a musical fragment, then develop through piano, guitar, and high-end production tools. Lyrics follow a similar path. Glimpsed, assembled, and refined. I work in Logic Pro X with Kontakt, EastWest, Arcade, Scalar, Steinberg, Waves, and Kits.ai (ethically licensed vocal models based of my own recordings). 

Most of the songs feature the vocals of https://www.tiktok.com/@adriaana_corkum. Please give her channel some support!

Whether polished or raw, each track aims to capture something emotionally honest. If a song resonates with you, then it was meant for you.

Until dawn
