This is story telling music.
This is instrumental music for the soul and senses.

Over time, my compositions have been revisited, remixed, remastered, always RELOVED, refreshed and sometimes reimagined.
The beauty and luxury of having control of your 'masters' is the opportunity to add to the sonic experience, if you feel you didn't get it so right the first time, or just the added luxury of being in control of your musical compositions and to hopefully enhance the musical and sonic structure.

Emotion. Image. Journey. Magic. If four words could describe Galliano Sommavilla’s work as I’ve experienced it, those would be the words....

.....“Song/day 308” begins with military style snare drum, timpani, and thick, orchestral string chords that escalate both chromatically and by octave. The timpani eventually fades, or perhaps is simply overpowered by xylophone sounds, oboe, falling piano chords, and ambient sound effects. A light, bell like instrument mimics the melodic pattern of the string chords, ushering in the first climax of the tune, when all the instruments sound as if they’re having going-away-to-war parties in separate apartments, all coincidentally conversing in the same key. Despite the chaos, each instrument’s part is interesting and/or gorgeous, and they layer together quite nicely, especially in the two or three spots where the tune calms down a bit and Galliano’s trademark mellow groove re-enters, as if reminding us that these very stirred up houses are also homes.
