  “She began studying piano at the age of eight.”

  their own biography

  the whole biography

  She began studying piano at the age of eight.
 Later she began to study singing and cello then at the Conservatory of Music of Salerno , matching the academic course of study taking part in several rock and dark-punk bands .
 Over time , her interest focuses on contemporary music and the avant-garde of ‘900 and on voice research .
 After graduating in singing with M° Daniela Del Monaco , she attended workshops and continued education courses at the Academy of Music in Milan and the Conservatory of Padua . 
At the same time she started her training as cutter , sound designer and producer and post producer for movie and television , getting in touch with several audio editing platforms , both as self-taught and at Italian film production institutions [ Cinecittà , Fonoroma , International Recording ] where she attended courses as intern .
 At the end of her training as a multimedia sound designer , she left the cello course at the Conservatory and the classic music to devote herself entirely to the composition and performance of her musical productions . She focused herself on the study of contemporary and electronic music and to the research of new languages , testing new forms of “sound dialogues” . The double background , academic and as musician on stage , has created a style in which the rhythmic grit of rock music nestles and coexists in unconventional harmonic structures ; concrete sounds merge into darkwave melodies ; harmonic suspensions into electronics . The result is a complex of sounds in which no element is protagonist , but each is essential to the existence of the structure itself : the rhythm parts appear and disappear to open in noise and minimalist environments , in which the voice is the key factor of it but at the same time harmonic part of a whole .
 Everything bounces like a ball , roles are independent , unrelated to space and time . From 2009 she joins Max Maffia & The Empty Daybox , an acoustic instrumental ambient band .
 The group’s first album , Happiness is a Tree , was released by ” Daybox Records ” on February 9th 2012 and can be found on CDBaby and all the major digital download provider services [iTunes , Amazon , Rhapsody , eMusic , Napster , etc.] . She is the author of several musical theater performances and sound installations : “Nex Generation – on a tale of Peppino Impastato” [2012] , “33” [2012] , “Disimagination – Rotture non programmate di un dialogo amoroso” [2011] , “Take Away – The Vox Burger” [2011] , ” Abnormal ” [2009] , ” Divina Vasaia ” [2009] , ” Duality for solo voice ” [2008] , ” Zanclide ” [2008] , ” Maquillage ” [2008] , ” Tattica 001″ [2007] . Also , she co-signed multidisciplinary productions [“Affaticamento” , “Qualcuno voleva annegarvisi dentro” , “Come un lago senza fando , Sir. , come un cielo d’estate sempre blu” , “processionea”] . Since many years , in addition to concerts and performing arts , she is devoting herself to the teaching of singing and musical disciplines .
