Ruben Micieli in Velletri
with a song in his heart and mastery in his hands
Ruben Micieli flown from Sicily to the hills of Rome bringing with him the bel canto of his hometown Catania where he graduated with honours from the Bellini Conservatory. Recognised in Warsaw last year by one of the most discerning critics, Jed Distler , who remarked on his strong hands wrapped in velvet gloves . What he did not mention was a heart of gold and a soul immersed in the style of bel canto opera which is in his very blood.
Ruben plays with style but also with intelligence and he is immersed in the world of Italian opera not only as a pianist but also as a conductor.
Ruben who has been seated at the piano since he was four and since that moment it has become his breath, the essence of his existence. Like a constant companion always providing what he needs . Music for Ruben is life itself and a profound expression of the soul.
What better way could there be to describe who he is and why he transmits a sense of communication that is so immediate and compelling.
