Free event reserved for CPM students
The CPM Music Institute hosts Bernardo Lanzetti, a historic voice of Italian and international progressive rock, for an exclusive Masterclass titled “The Voice, Singing – a Non-Conventional Approach to Vocality”, scheduled for Friday, November 28, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
“It is a great joy for me to share my experiences with motivated young people,” says the artist. The session will be interactive, engaging students through reflections, demonstrations, and vocal experimentation.
Bernardo LanzettiAuthor, composer, experimentalist and singer, Bernardo Lanzetti has been active on the music scene since the 1970s. Former member of Acqua Fragile, Premiata Forneria Marconi, Extra, and Mangala Vallis, he has released 23 official albums and more than 120 songs, including tracks performed by Loredana Bertè and Ornella Vanoni.
His artistic path also extends to theatre and avant-garde music, with collaborations with Maurizio Pisati and the late Giorgio Gaslini. He is also the only Italian artist cited among those who have recorded Bob Dylan covers, and the only Italian songwriter ever allowed to co-sign a track with U.S. rapper Busta Rhymes.
Recognized by teachers and scientists for an unusual elasticity of the vocal apparatus, a characteristic still evident at the age of 77, Lanzetti can produce sounds across a five-octave range. He has sung in multiple languages and, as an experimenter, invented the “Glovox”, a glove equipped with sensors capable of capturing the throat’s vibrations and processing them as a monophonic signal.
A completely self-taught artist driven by an original and inquisitive vision, Bernardo Lanzetti continues to pursue a unique approach to vocal research and wishes to share his unconventional experiences with young people interested in singing and in the magic the voice can create — both for the audience and for the singer.
