Liszt's music very often has external inspiration. It attempts, that is to say, to translate and communicate emotions that have been aroused in the artist by nature, poetry or painting. The pieces recorded here are not just a combination of well-organized notes. They offer something that goes further, something not visible in the score to the naked eye, something that impresses the listener as a true "vision." It is from this that Liszt's music derives it's strongly evocative power, it's capacity to recreate in sound natural, human and spiritual realities. Jacopo Mai was born in Grosseto in September 1996. He obtained the first level Diploma Accademico in Piano with full marks, honors and special mention at the ISSM "P. Mascagni" of Livorno, where his teacher was Maestro Daniel Rivera. In parallel with his musical studies, he attended the Liceo Classico "Carducci-Ricasoli" of Grosseto, obtaining the Classical High School Diploma in 2015. He won first prize in the Literary Competition held by the Italian "Dante Alighieri" Society with "La Nave in Dante". He has attended numerous international piano competitions, obtaining mentions and first prizes as a soloist, duet partner, and chamber musician. He has also given numerous recitals for cultural associations in Tuscany.
