This production is a fusion of different musical genres. The four composers presented here (Ralph Towner, Nuccio D’Angelo, Anthony Sidney and Astor Piazzolla) are atypical for classical repertoire and all hold a borderline position between written and improvised music. Flavio Cucchi gave his first classical guitar concert at the age of eight. During his school years he enjoyed various musical experiences, from ethnic music to jazz, and recorded several albums and TV shows. After high school he returned to classical music and studied with Alvaro Company at the Conservatorio "Cherubini" in Florence, gaining his diploma cum laude. Later he received a scholarship to study with Oscar Ghiglia at the Accademia Chigiana in Siena, where he was awarded the "Diploma of Merit."
