Marco Rosano is an italian contemporary composer whose work covers many musical types: classical, film, dance and theatre, children’s lullabyes... In several projects, he combines the roles of composer, arranger and producer. His last project, "Analog Bach", is an album of Baroque music, made entirely with an analogue Rhodes Chroma synthesiser. Marco Rosano’s setting of the Stabat Mater reveals his love for Baroque music, a passion he shares with leading countertenor Andreas Scholl. Marco Rosano is also currently working on a Requiem, also in close collaboration with Andreas. Andreas Scholl sang the first complete performance of the Marco Rosano's Stabat Mater on 22 February 2008 at City Recital Hall, Angel Place, Sydney, Australia, accompanied by the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra (ABO) under Paul Dyer.
