Fabrizio Paterlini
Heart-breakingly beautiful piano
Paterlini’s delicate and minimalist style is guaranteed to bring out the inner
romantic in anyone. From his earliest works, such as “Viaggi in Aeromobile”,
to his more recent albums such as “Autumn Stories”, Paterlini’s twinkling
melodies and rumbling bass riffs are riddled with artistic intricacy and
expressivity. In many of his recordings, Paterlini places the microphones
very close to the wooden hammers. This creates a subtly deeper sound and
unique tone, which picks up the vibrations of the strings and the percussive
ring of the fingertips hitting the keys.

Top tip
Express yourself
Bring repetitive melodies to life
by concentrating less on the
instructions in the score, and
more on your own expression.
Try swapping speeds, dabbling
with dynamics and playing
with the pedals to fi nd
your unique sound.
