Born in Genoa, Adriano Fontana started to study classic guitar when he was 7 years old.
He holds a Bachelor in guitar jazz from the Conservatory "Niccolò Paganini" in Genoa. Along
with concert and didactic activity he composes music for theatre, contemporary
dance, readings, short films, post-scorings and internet web-sites.
Adriano plays mostly guitar (classical, electric and acoustic), but both in the
composition and recording he also plays bass, double bass, piano, keyboards and
percussion.
His album, "Small songs in a small kitchen" is the purely acoustic side of his
production, based more on counterpoint and management of space and time rather
than virtuosity. Fully recorded in a small kitchen in the historic center of
Genoa (his house), it is a meeting place for actors, dancers and other performers. As an
artist, Adriano is difficult to categorize, he professionally moves between classical music,
jazz, contemporary and even rock and electronica.
