A singular cello duet | Carlo Maria Paulesu | TEDxLakeComo

Can a young man fall in love with classical music and devote himself passionately to the study of the cello? Yes, Carlo Maria Paulesu is the living proof. In his singular music performance, Carlo Maria and his twin take you on a journey between different times, places, and musical genres. Carlo Maria goes beyond borders to unveil unprecedented connections between traditions and cultures. A moment of pure magic.

Born in Como in 1997, Carlo Maria graduated at the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory of his city. He approaches baroque music under the guidance of cellist Paolo Beschi and from 2018 he is part of the ensemble "filoBarocco." Through original arrangements and compositions, he experimented with different genres, such as rock, blues, and popular music, with the intention of highlighting their closeness to Seventeenth and Eighteenth-century music. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
