Stefano Ottomano: a brilliant inspiration



Stefano Ottomano is a young Italian composer born in Bari. He is a musician and a lecturer in several music schools in the south of Italy.

Stefano has been always attracted by music and thanks to his bachelor degree and multiple master courses he attended with lecturers like: Leigh H. Stevens, Mark Ford, Ruud Wiener, Tim Adams, Emil Richards, etc.. he is now a complete musician with an amazing creativity.

Mr Ottomano is not a common musician, he is also an author widely recognised; especially for the textbook: “Nuovo metodo di avviamento alla batteria per bambini”. He also is the composer of multiple movie soundtracks, and can show on his credit to have done the soundtrack of “non te ne andare” by Alessandro Porzio.

But what makes Mr. Ottomano unique is his capacity to try new ways of composing and play music.

Thanks to his Italian flair giving him the excellence and genius, he developed the “poker for 50 Harps”, a completely new way of playing the Harp in the orchestra.

This new approach is a world premier; it has been developed according to a proper poker game! The Harps are disposed in a different position than normal and the harmonious development of the metrics play a game of poker.

The last Ep released by Mr Ottomano is called “come trascinate dal vento” and is already having huge success.
Mr Ottomano is usually compared with famous musicians like: Philip Glass, Win Mertens and Ludovico Einaudi. Do you know why?

Check this out and you will understand!
