Hallo
everybody! If you have reached this page, you probably
already know much about me. For those to whom I am
instead a mystery I want to say that I live in Massa,
Tuscany, Italy, and I attend the Faculty of Electronic
Engineering at Pise University. In my spare time (always
so much) I try to follow my interests, photography, as an
example (not seldom I compel the Vegetable Kingdom in
front of my lenses); I spend (sigh!) long hours in front
of my monitor for various applications, often related to
electronics also as a hobby; though I can't devote a lot
of time to reading, I appreciate true and likely stories,
but I also appreciate very different kinds of books. I
find art nice in many shapes, though I am not an expert.
I admire the ingenious work of Leonardo da Vinci as a
scientist, and who can say not to know him at least a bit
as an artist? I only want to point out here a charcoal
drawing of his, "Sant'Anna,
la Madonna, il Bambino e S.Giovannino",
unfortunately not kept in this Country. Though I don't
devote a lot of time to music, I don't mind at all
contemporary Italian and foreign pop authors. Concerning
"the times that were", I find great the arie
"Recitar! ... Vesti la giubba" from "I
pagliacci" (Leoncavallo), "E lucevan le
stelle" from Tosca (Puccini) and some parts of
"Cavalleria Rusticana" (Mascagni). I like very
much classical music; between excerpts I'm fond of I want
to number Brahms' "Hungarian Dances" n.
1,4,5,11, Smetana's "Moldava", Listz's
"Hungarian Rhapsodies" n. 3,4,5,
Rimskij-Korsakov's "Shéhérazade"; there are
however many others I consider beautiful. |
