Roberto Guarino - Roberto Guarino

About me

Roberto Guarino, as known as Guaro, passionate about music and in love with it, first as a musician, then as a composer, arranger, producer, and then as all of the above. Winner of 2 Tenco Awards in 2004 for “Best song “ and “Album of the year”, 2 Golden discs, 1 Platinum record, Amnesty International Award in 2006, nomination for the Nastro D’argento in 2001 for Best Original Song with “Chiedimi se sono felice” and various other awards. Soundtrack for the movie “Chiedimi se sono felice” by Aldo, Giovanni and Giacomo, blockbuster in 2001. In love with Jazz, a genre that grew me up, and to which, after a long depart, I came back to, just like a son goes back to his mother: now it is my store of oxygen in a Martian atmosphere.

In love with beautiful things, collector and compulsive guitar player and Pro Tools user. Husband, father, and gourmet, and I hope an estimated professional. I hope you are glad to be landed on my website. I take pride on the collaborations I was involved with and that enriched myself as human and as a professional.

As of today I collaborated with names such as:

Lucio Dalla, Stadio, Luca Carboni, Fabio Concato, Mogol, Sergio Cammariere, Mariella Nava, Andrea Morricone, Mango, Gigi Finizio, Samuele Bersani, Renato Zero, Gatto Panceri, Michele Zarrillo.

But the journey goes on…
