Bio

Felipe Radicetti, classically trained as a pianist and composer, is an award-winning creator of music for film, theatre, and commercial productions.

Radicetti, based in Rio de Janeiro, is currently releasing his SagradoProfano CD, a cycle of songs reflecting African-Brazilian traditions and religious beliefs. In the lyrics and musical structure of the cycle, with an overlay of electronic sound, Radicetti incorporates the sacred and everyday experience of the African-Brazilian culture. The CD will be released in 2008.

Recently Felipe Radicetti was nominated by the Programa Rumos of Itaú. Radicetti’s show performance in Goiânia on last April 2008 was recorded for a DVD produced by the program for 2007/2009 campaign.

Radicetti's song cycle CD Homens Partidos (Broken Men), released in 2000, focuses on the inability of the common man to integrate pressures of modern life into his splitted personality. Homens Partidos features important artists as Lô Borges, Geraldo Azevedo, Cláudio Nucci and Clara Sandroni.

In 2005 Koala Records released Radicetti’s SuperLisa CD in Japan (www.superlisaonline.com). The SuperLisa project, developed in partnership with Clarisse Grova, mixes the traditional Brazilian song structure into electronic grooves and computer arrangements. It was originally released in Brazil in 2003 and then hailed by O Globo music critic Hugo Sukman as the best electronic CD in Brazilian Popular Music.
