Biografia
Compagnia d`0;Arte Drummatica was born in 1994 from a project of Mario Martignoni that matured through the experimentation of percussion in various different bands.
In 1996 the first CD COPYONE. The interest in particular forms of expression was channelled over time in the studio: the rediscovery of the primitive sounds, of ethnic cultures that are always rich in tradition and have fascinating instruments; and the experimentation of particular effects and sounds without the use of electronic equipment. An other characteristic of this research is improvisation, which is the guiding force behind all composition, even though some part of it appear more structured. Starting with a general theme, the player may have a large scope for free interpretation and in this way become co-author of the piece. At present, the project improved owing to the joint work of the five musicians who compose the living formation. In the end of 2000 they produced the second CD: CARBon
