Lo stile, la didattica e le sue esperienze sono sicuramente il fusion e il crossover che si intrecciano con jazz, blues, latin, rock, funk, soul ed altri generi. Particolare ispirazione la ottiene dall’essere anche percussionista in stili quali etno, latin, world e contemporanea e nel mischiare ed applicare sul drumset le varie tecniche di cajon, congas, bongo, timbales, frame drums, darbuka, table, udu, nonché le varie tecniche di esecuzione seduto, in piedi e a terra, dando al suo stile un marcato sapore mediterraneo. Da diversi anni applica al suo drumming anche lo studio dei tempi dispari e dei cicli, ispirandosi sia al suo Maestro Trilok Gurtu che a Gary Chaffee. Infine, sperimenta la contaminazione dei suoni con l’elettronica e quella degli stili suonando anche per il teatro, la danza e la pittura.

The style, teaching and his experiences are certainly fusion and crossover which intertwine with jazz, blues, latin, rock, funk, soul and other genres. He gets particular inspiration from also being a percussionist in styles such as ethno, latin, world and contemporary and from mixing and applying on the drumset the various techniques of cajon, congas, bongo, timbales, frame drums, darbuka, table, udu, as well as the various execution techniques sitting, standing and on the floor, giving his style a marked Mediterranean flavor. For several years she has also applied the study of odd times and cycles to her drumming, taking inspiration from both her Master Trilok Gurtu and Gary Chaffee. Finally, she experiments with the contamination of sounds with electronics and with styles, also playing for theatre, dance and painting.
