Riccardo La Foresta is a percussionist and sound artist from Modena whose research of the last few years reveals a variety of sound-related practices.<\/p>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>\n\n

\n

Since 2015 he\u2019s dedicated to the development of the Drummophone, an aerophone instrument obtained from drums that creates acoustic drones, ancestral melodies and complex beats drastically distancing the instrument from traditional drumming, and questioning the role of the drum as a percussive instrument. <\/p>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>\n\n

\n

At the same time, he creates site-specific performances, sound sculptures and installations without limiting his work to percussive-based approaches.<\/p>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>\n\n
