Duilio Vigliotti
Lawyer since from 30 years, started early his interest on music studying firstly accordion. After few years went on keyboards and church organ.
His interest on pipes, as a player, started on 2001 and he, probably has been one of the earliest Italian students at the National Piping Centre. The interest on both the Great Highland Bagpipe and the Zampogna led him to start a cross cultural project based on the pipes, project immediately supported by the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama and the National Piping Centre as well as Italian public administrations and private companies. He’d have more time for practice but… too busy on organizing things…
