Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with incredible artists and professionals. Here are some impressions from those who were part of the process — in the studio, on stage, and in the making of each project.

Bruno…violão…meu Brasil!
That’s how I see Bruno: someone who has perfectly captured, with his beautiful (and unmistakably Brazilian) sound, a guitar that doesn’t just show technique — it touches the heart.
Bravo…até a próxima!

I have collaborated with Bruno on two recording projects and I greatly appreciated his ability to put himself at the service of the project, bringing out its artistic message. Beyond being an excellent guitarist and arranger, he is also highly skilled as a sound engineer, handling the entire production process with both elegance and craft.

Bruno is a friend, a versatile and skilled musician. Working with him is effortless — he helped me bring a touch of Brazil through his guitar.

Bruno has been, since the day I met him in 2017, a true and sincere friend, as well as a great musician and professional. Always smiling, positive and optimistic, he has the rare gift — in the music world — of putting people at ease and leading a group the way only a real leader knows how. From 2022 to 2023, he and I, together with the rest of my band, brought our “Concerto fiorentino in salotto” to theatres, squares and gardens, which later evolved into the “Canzoni x 2” concert together with singer-songwriter Don Backy. His advice has been invaluable to me, and even today, with the strong friendship that binds us, I still turn to him for musical suggestions. He was the official arranger of my first album, Italia, America e ritorno, artistically directed by my beloved maestro Narciso Parigi. Narciso fell in love with him and with his style at first sight, to the point of telling us: “Having a Brazilian arranger is like having an Italian cook — he does his own job very well, but he also does other people’s jobs very well.”

I don’t want to focus on Bruno’s talent — that’s beyond doubt.
What I really want to talk about is his professionalism. We met in a recording studio: I was there to listen back to a take of my new song, and Bruno had come in to record something of his own. The bass line on my track just wasn’t working for me, and at some point I asked Bruno if he would consider recording the part himself. Well… no sooner said than done: in no time he had learned the song, and after a few takes we recorded the final version that’s now on the track I released — “A Perfect Match”.
Bruno was great, fast and incredibly professional. I really appreciated it — that level of professional efficiency isn’t something you find in everyone.

I’ve known Bruno for many years. He has contributed to my records, and beyond being deeply skilled from a musical standpoint, he is equally accomplished as a sound engineer, with vast experience built across the world. A truly all-round artist who always knows how to solve any situation. I have nothing but respect and gratitude for someone who, on the human side as well, knows how to deal with everyone — speaking several languages along the way. A great musician, a team player, a friend. He will be your added value.
