Corrado Rossi was born in Bergamo and graduated in piano dedicating himself at the same time to the composition of both classical music (soundtracks and piano solos) and electronic music. His passion for home-recording and his research into the beauty of sound and arrangements, led him, about two years ago, into the ambient genre where he has created a very personal style in which electronica blends with piano and orchestra and a clear melodic line is strengthened with chill-out rhythms.

His first CD “Corrado Rossi” which came out in 2006 is predominantly an ambient style album, but it also contains a number of electronic soundtracks and tracks with just piano and orchestra. The CD contains 15 tracks including some collaborations with “The Wimshurst’s Machine”, an ambient/new-age ensemble from Turin.

Musicians who have inspired Corrado Rossi are to be found amongst the leading composers from the 80’s such as Mike Oldfield, the Alan Parsons Project, Jean Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk and Pat Metheney, along with other great pianists such as Keith Jarrett and Dave Grusin.
