Born in L’Aquila in 1992, Davide Ferella obtained his degree in mandolin performance from the Conservatory “A. Casella of L’Aquilla” under the tutelage of M. Fabio Giudice. He was ranked first in the chamber music categories of the national competitions “Urania” and “Marco Dall’Aquila.” He also won the special “Piero Farulli” prize. He has performed in numerous Italian festivals, and has collaborated with the Baroque Ensemble “Luca Marenzio,” Ensemble “Ianua,” and “Virtuosi Italiani.” On this, his new release, he presents a program of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Concertos for Harpsichord, masterfully transcribed for mandolin. Ferella himself transcribed these pieces. He is joined by Profili Barocchi, the extraordinarily capable Italian Baroque ensemble.
