(Please excuse the Italian title!)

In July, Yati completed a second annual workshop for film music composition by invitation of Composer and Programme Director Marco Biscarini at the Conservatorio di Musica "Francesco Venezze" in Rovigo, Italy.  This year, the focus was on improvisation for screen, and included elements of silent as well as "sound" films for the students to work on.
