Music
Silvestro nel Cosmo
Silvestro nel Cosmo explores the world through music, systems and ideas. Behind Silvestro is Pietro Mey.
From the piano to live looping
Three ways of playing, from the most intimate to the fullest. In Silvestro's mark they are the arms of the helix: one voice, then two, then all of them together.
Solo piano
The intimacy of a piano and nothing else.
Piano and voice
The songs, written at the piano and sung.
March 2026
La ragazza del fiume
Silvestro nel Cosmo's first single.
Live looping
Polymetric and multi-instrumental. Silvestro builds the songs on stage, one layer at a time: piano, keyboards, voice and melodica recorded and looped until the piece stands on its own.
