Description:
Francesco Palazzo was born in Martina Franca (Italy) in 1969.

He studied the accordion with Salvatore di Gesualdo and was the first one in Italy who obtained the “diploma” of accordion, at “Luigi Cherubini” Conservatory of Florence. He also completed his training in humanistic studies, composition, choir music and choir conducting.

He played in the theatres and the auditoriums of many major Italian cities (Asti, Milano, Verona, Lucca, Roma, Napoli, Foggia, Bari, Taranto, Martina Franca, Lecce, Matera, Catanzaro, Crotone, Vibo Valentia, Catania, Caltanissetta).

He has recently undertaken a technical and expressive research on the exploitation of the accordion and by comparing it with other instruments he re-established his performing technique on a new basis and he thus projected his personal accordion performance, correspondingt to his renewed artistic requirements.

He has been teaching accordion at “Niccolò Piccinni” Conservatory of Bari since 1993. He also revised and transcribed works for his instrument, drawn mainly from the organ literature – some of them have been already published.

He played chamber music with Tiziana Portoghese (mezzo-soprano), with “Tamborrino Ensemble”, with “Xenia Ensemble”, with the orchestras “Musica Judaica” and the “Collegium Musicum”.

In April 2001, at the Cattedral of Bari, with “Collegium Musicum” directed by Rino Marrone, along with the violincellist Elizabeth Wilson, he played the work “Sieben Worte” for accordion, violincello and string-orchestra written by the Russian composer Sofia Gubaidulina.

In July 2001 he distinguished himself in the “Ibla Grand Prize” with a Special Mention for the performance of “De Profundis” of S. Gubaidulina, which allowed him to perform in the most prestigious concert-halls in the United States of America (New York University-Casa Italiana “Zerrilli Marimò”, Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center in New York), and in Europe (Amsterdam, Florence).
He recorded some CDs for Sorriso Ed.Musicali, Rugginenti and for the Phoenix Classic a recital in which works of Johann Sebastian Bach, Cèsar Franck, Felice Lattuada, Franco Alfano, Luigi Ferrari-Trecate, Sergio Calligaris, Bruno Bartolozzi and Sofia Gubaidulina were performed.
