good evening to all and happy party to all
women
when I was very young I always have
found the walls of the house rather
narrow and I understood very early that with
music through music I would have
could have crossed those walls and
to travel
a few years later it really happened
because during adolescence
I decided to run away from home and to do
the experience of the street musician for
a couple of months let’s say I lived in the
coins that people threw into the
custody of my instrument was
a beautiful experience was in ireland
the rest street that the road at least
were the times the most famous street for
street musicians however the thing that
I’m very interested to tell you this is this
something very interesting always
thanks to the magic of the music that was
happened just before when I was just
so small before leaving
physically at home and go to discover
the world and this is the speech I have
discovered that it was possible to break them down
walls of the house and travel with the mind and
with the heart and soul thanks to the
music because this is the music there
allows you to do and this appearance in
reality is not just about music
but of something I’d like to talk to you about
tonight and that is the dreams of the dream the
dream is perhaps the most important thing
that exists in our lives and often
we think of the dream as something
impalpable of non concrete
abstract when in fact very often
it is one of the most concrete things that there
may be in a person’s life
this is because a dream to be such
something that is built day by day
day is not something that almost does not
it exists or does not exist is suddenly
it lurks so without sports ideas
it becomes reality
in fact, sorry for the game of
words the dream the real one can be
something that becomes reality and this
it happens as I said day by day
with a daily job with a vision
with an idea and a tireless job
with courage and the first thing to do is
as in a journey out of one’s own
with force
that is, from its own from the area in which there
we feel at ease and dare to put ourselves
on the move, starting often leave with a
project with anything is the thing
harder
among other things, I have a few nights in
white to prepare for my departure
a few minutes and knows what I’m talking about but
even in life often starting the
more difficult because it means
even winning one’s fears means
so we win the fears ourselves
actually something that can
to block
but also it must be said if they did not exist
there would be courage and just with the
courage we must try to pursue
these our dreams and why this
actually, there are a couple of
things that are very important to say
the first of the just said is to have the
dare to take the first step
out of this comfort I am
the second is to have a big one
determination of course not even
in the darkest moments
never ever never stop ever get caught
from discouragement and we say and this is
clearly possible only and only
with a great willpower all
the most beautiful things as human beings that
they have been created in the most diverse worlds
from artistic to technological ones
creatives have been everything is possible
with great determination
what I like to call a
fierce desire this fierce desire
it is the same as an image that could
let’s say take what it does even to
a seedling a slender seedling
the asphalt is to make a breach through
the cement this is a force that has the
nature is that even within us and
this same force is precisely that
as I said it brings us slowly
when we have a vision when
we have an idea of something in this
sense a dream something that still does not
there is but there may be this is the
that is to say, in the end, with that
almost daily small work
imperceptible we find ourselves in time a
slowly move the limit of that
that is possible
and looking good at what is possible
at that moment really then to the
end if you think about it we are
simply building this dream
now there are wonderful cases and
also beautiful mottos or one of the motions that
I love more on that of enzo ferrari
that said one of the Italians more
perhaps most famous celebrated would be
abroad that said if you can dream it
you can do it
I discovered then that it was the same
identical bike that had walt disney and
I do not think it’s a coincidence because
they have lives different stories but their own
because they shared the same
philosophy the same vision of the world e
in their case their own blacklist
the most evident demonstration and this
willpower transforms ours
limits
the obstacles we find during the
our days our life in
our trying to do something good
transforms these same limits
we approach the right way in
opportunities to go further for
transform what is a problem into
something that makes us think outside
schemes makes us find solutions that
otherwise maybe we would not even have
I could think so it’s not like yes
says the whole sea is not all of it
evil comes to harm is not said
sorry this is the point and then me
comes to mind I do not know one of the most
great guitarists never existed that has
upset innovated so much in the world
of my instrument and django reinhardt that
during an accident he unfortunately had
injured in the hand and is found to have to
play with only two fingers of the hand
left is a huge limitation
yet he found a way to play that
he really did school or what he did
i know in the automotive field me comes in
mind clouds that maybe finding themselves
even without the possibility of
use the steering wheel for maybe a
thanksgiving was able to finish the
race and win it with a wrench
using it as a steering wheel to do it
become a true legend but
the point is precisely this courage
to leave and to dare and not to stop
now in my very small in mine
my tiny little story
let’s say the first challenge in this
route won or if you prefer the first one
little realized dream is called
octopus octopus is a system that is
patented electro-acoustic state in
reality is quite voluminous
to try and give you a weighty image
about 230 kilos like a piano a
queue roughly
and it would not even be on this one
beautiful stage of course they are
very happy to be here and honored but
the point is that this system allows
a single performer to play more than
a guitar even simultaneously and
extrapolate sounds very ways
details manipulating them in real time
completely live starting from
vibration of the rope
you know we say this a guitarist
when they are with the traditional technique
uses four fingers with which he makes notes
and those others with the other hand pinches
it realizes the sounds but let ‘s say the idea of
try to go beyond one
limitation that is part of our doing
music as instrumentalists was one
of the causes that gave birth to this
system is fine this system like
I said allows a single interpreter of
play live even more than the
instrument manipulating the sound even with
not just with your hands but with others
limbs the feet and even to the mouth though
so perhaps better to give you an idea
what is it and see it and then a
taste of 60 seconds with this
infamous octopus
[Music]

music is an art that takes place in the
time our canvas is the time maybe
painting sculpture has other others
raw materials to be shaped but we have
this and is therefore in effect in this
makes it perhaps even a little impalpable
like the idea of dream in the unconscious
collective that we always have when
we talk about dreams but at the same time
as in the myth of orpheus and Eurydice us
we can never stop to turn around
back because if we stopped there
it would interrupt the time that is one
fundamental part of music and yes
it would completely break the magic of
music itself
this exactly as in life does not
we can never stop we must yes
live present but always trying to
look towards projected towards the
our future towards the future, in short
so look forward to looking over it
something very important in mine
world that of music and this
appearance is so important that certain
sometimes it makes it possible to understand some things
of making music
I’ll give you a small example myself
it happens to be dealing with students
that at one point a beautiful day
they have to interface with the public
that is, they have to do theirs
their first concert maybe solo
in front of an audience was the first
performance is certainly an exit from
the one with force that often puts them in
great apprehension therefore have many
fears
what happens what will happen but if
wrong if I stop damn and so on
etcetera then the thing more
useful that I can often do with
them and take them and bring them in front of one
window and tell them to put them and dr
what do you see what you are seeing and when i
ask this thing they respond to
they usually look at you and see you
I do not know a landscape a road a car and
they describe to me what they see at
the same time I then stop them I tell him
good
but you saw here on the glass through
which you look at as there is one here
spotted and seen that the window is
made so from here here is a
inaccuracy here is a stain one
something like this
obviously not because their focus is not
it was there it was over they were watching
out of that window
now when we play in public and
so you create a communication with whom
he listens to us
if he listens to a listening or happens
the same thing goes further
in the sense that every musician is nobody
perfect there can be imprecision
the splint the error technical problems are
problematic maybe in a beautiful not
it matters
in reality, he who listens if he listens
it really tries to reach that one
emotion that is inside the music that
it is behind that maybe right in the soul
of whom he plays and perhaps also in the soul of
who listens and this idea to go
beyond and the same so important in the
dream because it is there that us
we must try to overthrow ours
barriers that we said are right
these limits we sometimes have
when we interface with them and
so in this way it could be
say it was born for example this
tool that is from a very need
precise artistic but also always from
research from thinking outside the box
and looking for new possibilities
let’s say we overcome some limitations
this tool is let’s say a little
particular
even if aesthetically it can look like
tools exist for other instruments
with many strings starting already from
Baroque period in its exact form
that you see here is unique in the world is one
star guitar 49 strings and lets me
making music in a way that to me is
ideal in a sense and I then
tonight I actually already in your pocket
ticket to the plane and I will take the
train just finished this speech
I will board a plane tonight itself for
go and do a series of concerts for
two months in the United States to do some
master classes in universities and
actually even with a lot of project
precise with a very precise idea that
to bring what I like
I really like to call the innovator
as the word innovat orio which is a bridge
between Italy and the United States to give
to talented, talented guys
those opportunities that I feel like
maybe to say to an entire generation
of musicians and missed at least in mine
country and this is a pleasant attempt
to do this thing and then to give it
possibility objectively to dream
because as we said it is the most thing
important
then the thing with which I would like to greet you
obviously some notes after so many
words and that’s why I did not think of
go back to the beginning and then me
son was the first song the very first
time the very first song I ever have
written then the very first time in
which I came out of my comfort
areas and then I ventured like
I could in the creative compositional field
trying to do something about it
meaning therefore the very first the very first
step in this direction
and by the way this is a song that
born exactly from the suggestion of
that very first trip as a musician
of the road
