From the organizer:

Italian composer-pianist Federico Albanese, who continues his productions inspired by music genres such as neo-classical and psychedelic, will meet with his audience on the evening of 3 December at Turkcell Platinum Stage!

Federico Albanese, who built his music with a cinematic understanding, finally met with music lovers with “Before and Now Seems Infinite”, which was released on February 25, 2022 with the Mercury KX label. “The Quiet Man” included in this album, which was born in collaboration with Marika Hackman and Ghostpoet, became one of the most popular tracks of the album. This album, which received hundreds of thousands of listens on digital platforms, was followed by the single “Your Trees” released on August 19, 2022.

Federico Albanese, who was introduced to the piano and clarinet at a young age, spent his early teenage years playing in rock bands. His fascination with folk, electronic and classical music and his background in rock bands in his youth helped him develop his composing side. It is possible to hear the inspiration he got from the diversity of these polyphonic genres in his productions.

After his solo album “The Houseboat and the Moon”, released in 2014, was interpreted as “pure gold” by Alto Riot, and in 2016 came their second full track “The Blue Hour”. The album was released under the label of “Neue Meister”, a series of contemporary classical music albums of Berlin Classics. Federico crowned the following albums with worldwide festivals and expanded his audience.

“Between before and now; between reality and imagination; We are exploring fusion, avant-garde pop, jazz standards and electronic tones with the album “Before and Now Seems Infinite”, which he calls “Before and Now Seems Infinite”. You should definitely listen to “The Quiet Man” in the album, “Feel Again” with Ghostpoet and “Summerside” duet with Marika Hackman before coming to the concert.
