June 30, 2015 – The Auditorium of the Slovak National Radio is sold-out for Fabrizio Paterlini, a brilliant pianist and composer, star of the international modern-classical music scene, who will perform in concert tonight at 7.30pm, for the final event of the 8th Italian Festival in Slovakia “Dolce Vitaj”. The concert, organized by the Italian Cultural Institute in Bratislava, is also part of the Bratislava Cultural Summer 2015 under the patronage of Slovak Culture Minister Marek Madaric. Critics compared Paterlini to Ludovico Einaudi, Max Richter, Michael Nyman and George Winston for the masterpieces of his last 3 albums “Now”, “Autumn Stories” and “The Art of the Piano”. Among the many collaborations with artist, there is also the documentary film “Controvento, senz’olio!”, created by the Foundation Berro – with the participation of leading figures, including the great poet Alda Merino, author Mauro Corona, the Nobel Laureate Rita Levi Montalcini – in which Paterlini’s music wraps the words of the protagonists becoming an evocative soundtrack. Paterlini’s compositions have always been influenced by his love for rock and electronic music. Paterlini has performed in many prestigious spaces worldwide. For the concert in Bratislava, he will perform with Pavel Bogacz jr. (Violin), Martin Petrík (viola) and Karolína Hurayová (cello). (Red)
