I am Stefano Semprini, an
Italian violinist and composer.
I started playing violin
at the age of 8 and since I was 15 I've written my own music.
I've written music for
violin solo, piano solo, and violin and piano, but I consider those
for violin and piano the best expression of my music.
Therefore, currently I'm
working on a collection of all my compositions for violin and piano,
from the oldest ones to my latest. I'm just getting through a new
“Dialogue between violin and piano”, where the two instruments
talk one each other expressing theirself at best.
My music is the mirror of
what I think about music itself. I strongly believe that classical
music still has something to say and that a contemporary form of
classical music can exist.
In my music I try to put
together elements from different musical ages, but with a new
perception. Consequently my pieces have a mixed character, that is
classical and contemporary at the same time. The result is a
sensitive, powerful, and emotional music.
The collection is made by
ten pieces for violin and piano, which will be recorded in January
2014. A professional recording is needed in order to spread it to the
world. Therefore I am currently raising funds for my project.
I'm very proud of my
project. Music is my everything: it is my dimension, my way to
communicate, my way to be part of the world. But music doesn't belong
to anyone, it belongs to everyone and should be spread to the world.
This is the reason why I need your support.
Your help
To record my collection I
need your help. My goal is to raise € 4.000, because production is
costly. Your donations will go towards covering the following
expenses:
Musicians Fees
Engineering Fees
Studio Time
Mixing
Mastering
The compositions will be
recorded by me and my partner, the pianist Stefano Tomassoni, in
Rome. I can't set in stone the different expenses because they could
fluctuate accordingly to recording sessions and needs.
Your impact
Donating doesn't mean
simply funding my project, but also contributing to the future of
music. Your contribution supports art, invention, and creation. So if
you would like to keep the independent creative spirit alive, you can
support my music.
If you choose to support
me, you’ll be rewarded, and I’ll keep you up to date on the
progress.
You can see the variety of
rewards on the right side of this page.
No matter how small the
contribution, every euro will help me in order to complete this
project.
Other ways you can help
If you are unable to
participate financially yourself, you can help out by spreading the
word this campaign. Crowd funding works when everyone gets involved,
so you can share this project through Facebook, Twitter, Google+,
Tumblr and other social networks. Involve your friends, family and
all the music lovers you know!
