Maurizio Bignone is a pianist, composer and writer, considered one of the most exciting artists on the Italian and international music scene. His music has been performed in the world’s most famous concert halls, and many solo artists have turned to his music. Since 2022 Maurizio has been performing a solo piano concert called ‘Inner Reflections’, touring the most important European capitals and cities, and even in Brazil, where he performed in São Paulo and Rio de
Janeiro in March 2024.
‘Inner Reflections’ is Maurizio Bignone’s artistic project, an intimate conversation with the piano, a diary full of memories and experiences, a journey into his memory and future desires, as well as reflections on life and human relationships, on the sounds of nature and its aesthetic movements, Concert, based on deep inner and spiritual reflections that Maurizio wants to convey to us, to draw attention to the relationships between people and the living world around us, relationships that are still possible, even if some of them have faded Maurizio is an artist who knows no boundaries, and his concerts are an edification for all of us. But the diary consists of more than just notes... it is a real notebook in which Maurizio has written down his thoughts that will become part of the concert. During the performance Maurizio will read his notes, full of passion and feelings, and will make the audience share his own emotions. The sounds of the piano and his voice will alternate to describe his restless inner world in relation to the outside world, an intimate and whispered dialogue. All of this was written during two months of isolation in Italy during the Covid pandemic, when the air outside was still and time seemed to stand still....
