Federico Albanese
+ Flavia Massimo
Presented with Bird On The Wire
Kings Place and Bird On The Wire are proud to present Italian multi-instrumentalist and composer Federico Albanese, following the release of his new album ‘Blackbirds and the Sun of October’ in February. With support from contemporary cellist and sound artist, Flavia Massimo.
Federico Albanese is a genre-defying Italian musician, composer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer.
His musical versatility is a natural gift that pushes him to explore music in all its facets. Albanese’s cinematic instrumental tracks, blending contemporary classical, pop, and electronic ambience, struck an instant chord for their airy, meditative beauty.
Federico’s new album entitled Blackbirds and the Sun of October is coming out on February 7, 2025, and it will be released by Sony’s new innovative, cross-genres label imprint XXIM.
