We are thrilled to present “Alumni Vol.1,” an extraordinary compilation of performances by talented young musicians from the “C. Percoto” Music High School in Udine.
This unique initiative was made possible through the collaboration between Liceo Percoto, the renowned composer and pianist Carlo Corazza, and the Raighes Factory label.
The concept of creating this compilation took shape with the shared passion and dedication of Carlo Corazza, a teacher at Liceo Musicale Percoto and an artist with Raighes Factory. Carlo played a pivotal role in bridging the gap between these two entities, acting as a catalyst to connect young musicians with the support they need for their future careers.
The featured artists, hailing from the vibrant community of the Music High School, have expertly performed a range of eclectic pieces, spanning from classical compositions to contemporary works. This compilation is a testament to the talent and diversity within the emerging music scene.
The production and recording were meticulously handled by Prof. Federico Marcon, alongside students from the Music Technologies class at Liceo Percoto.
The result is an extraordinary sonic experience, enriched by the technique and passion of these young musicians.
“Alumni Vol.1” is an ambitious project that celebrates emerging talent and provides a unique opportunity to explore the musical richness of the new generation.
Proudly distributed by Raighes Factory, this compilation serves as a bridge between the past and future of music, with the clear goal of supporting and inspiring the next generations of artists.
