Lucio Amanti

Born:

Lucio Amanti (b. Montreal, Canada, 1977) is a Canadian cellist with a neapolitan soul. He grew up and begun his studies in Cello and Composition in Naples (Italy) then in France and finally in USA with the legendary cellist Janos Starker[1]. He then decided to explore different approaches to cello playing, improving his already strong classical preparation with serious studies in the jazz field with another musical legend: Doctor David N. Baker, achieving a master's degree in jazz studies. After finishing his studies he decided to dedicate his time to finding a personal balance between musical tradition and jazz experimental approaches. Amanti has recently finished his first commercial album "Jazzcello"[1][2] (only digital) that has been in the itunes top ten sellers in the jazz category in Italy and "staff favourite" in Germany, Austria and others.[3] In this album, the cello keeps the classical and jazz inspirations constantly in balance using improvisation and the use of electronics to create the illusion of a string ensemble, a percussion ensemble or a rhythm section. He is currently living in Berlin (Germany) where he is writing and recording film scores, collaborating as guest teacher at the "Jazz Institute Berlin"[2] and he works with the soundbranding team of Metadesign AG. He has performed and collaborated with Luis Bacalov, David N
