GIOVANNI
GUACCERO

«His music devours the most diverse of foods to great avail (...). His "Salmo Metropolitano", composed to words by Pasolini (...), is outstanding.»
Enzo Siciliano (La Repubblica, 1999)

«an intellectual of change»
Luigi Pestalozza (Musica/Realtà, 2001)

«Musica per le montagne. A magic pot-pourri which releases a music which is suspended and thoughtful but never immobile: a decidedly supple form of avant-garde»
Antonello Antonelli (World Music Magazine, 2005)

«What I find compelling about Giovanni's writing is that he is able to tell this story in a language delightfully combining impeccable academic bravura with street-wise connectedness.» Alvin Curran (Preface to "L'improvvisazione nelle avanguardie musicali. Roma, 1965-1978", Aracne 2013)

«[...] it's need to empathize with a different code. Guaccero succeeds to do it masterfully, never overpower poetry [...], constructing a musical phrasing that helps almost reception poetic message [...].» Giorgio Adamo (Booklet CD “Non capisco la direzione dei venti”, 2015)

“Brazilian music is proud to have influenced an artist with so much talent [...]” Guinga (Booklet CD “A roda dos planetas errantes”, 2016)
