After finishing his studies he decided to dedicate all his time in trying to find a personal balance between musical tradition and experimental approaches: he started his search on the culturally exploding city of Berlin. Mr. Amanti has recently finished his first commercial recording (that is going soon to be distributed on I-tune, MSN music and other worldwide online music stores) where he propose an approach to the cello that keeps the classical and jazz inspirations constantly in balance between them using the improvisation and the use of electronics to create the illusion of either a string quartet or a rhythm section. He is also designing a new series of shows that will features the synergy between Cello/electronics and images projected and edited live during the performance. He performed and collaborated with: Luis Bacalov, Alun Francis, Luigi A. Bianchi, René Clemencic, David Sanchez, Jeff Gartner, Tiempo Libre, Ricardo Lorenz, David N. Baker, Roberto De Simone, Yuval Gotlibovich and others. Some said about him: He is a serious, dedicated musician and I am convinced of his potential to succeed. I strongly support his quest. (Dr. Janos Starker) […] He marks a very interesting way to discover the enormous potential of an instrument typically classical, very well used also into the Jazz (Marco Losavio www.jazzitalia.net) How the hell you do that?
