PINO FORASTIERE

I was born at home in Via Dante 6, Latronico, in the mountains of the Basilicata region (Southern Italy). When I was seven years old, my parents moved to Rome, and so did I. In the following four decades, I played, studied, and lived in Rome, but I never felt at home once. I don’t want to talk about the Conservatory of Santa Cecilia in Rome, although I learned a lot from the technical point of view. Goodbye, thank you so much.
However, as a classical guitar student, I played a nylon 10-string guitar, so I should have known what to expect from the future.
But no.
