Projects

The composer is looking for ensemble performance groups in Europe to play his music, since there are very few possibilities available in his home country. Performers usually have no experience of contemporary instrumental practice and fundings and structure are rare.
Leonardo can work on particular instrumental combinations of given ensembles.
