Massimo Pierini is an eclectic composer born in Lucca, arranger and independent producer active in fields such as jazz, classical music, progressive rock, art rock, ambient, music for films and documentaries.
A multi-instrumentalist, in the studio he often plays bass, piano, synths, percussion. A free spirit in his own right, he declared himself against any type of musical competitions and, despite an uncommon mental openness in terms of musical genres, in favor of preserving traditional musical languages.
From a very young age (about eight/ten years old) he developed a passion for Progressive Rock music, listening to groups of historical importance such as Jethro Tull, Le Orme, Genesis, PFM, Van Der Graaf Generator as well as the Beatles.
He trained as a self-taught player on the classical guitar addressing, as regards composing and playing, to music that is technically less complex but certainly not of lesser historical-artistic value such as soul-blues, boogie woogie, pop-rock... basically the international song in English, often with swing-jazz implications.
For years he dedicated himself to composing and playing live in formations he created, accumulating considerable experience in the field.
At a mature age the love for musical languages ​​left behind such as progressive rock, ambient, jazz and classical re-emerges.
Lover of stylistic coherence, the method chosen to deal with all these genres is the creation of separate projects, managed with wisdom within the Nautilus Studio, musical productions. Massimo Pierini is also an artistic director, creator and organizer of the annual festival "Musiche e Parole ai 4 Venti".
Massimo Pierini is passionate about nature, philosophy, archeology and science, especially astronomy, physics, medicine and health.
As a young man he played football and tennis. Today he practices trekking and mountain biking. He loves animals and lives with a beautiful and very special tabby kitten.


I am a composer (member of the Italian Society of Authors and Publishers since 1990), with a conception of music as a cultural, artistic and social activity in a world that increasingly tends to present and exploit musical content and the artists themselves
as mere commercial products. In my vision, music is an expression of the soul.
I am available for the composition of original soundtracks of:
WHY SHOULD I WANT TO INCLUDE ORIGINAL MUSIC IN MY MOVIE?
Original music is what will give your documentary, short film or theater performance an edge, effectively placing it in a higher category.
I have composed songs of all genres from Classical Music to international songs in English, jazz, ambient music and beyond.
Depending on the client's preferences, I can produce a traditional classical sound (for example using instruments used in small chamber ensembles or orchestras)
or an advanced and experimental sound since I also deal with sound design (sound design)
or again...an ethnic sound using and being passionate about both western and eastern instruments.
Even as an art director I am used to interacting with people and willing to listen to your preferences so that you are fully satisfied with the final product.
By addressing me you will have the advantage of being able to refer to a single person both as regards the musical composition and the realization of the masters that will be included in your video.


WHAT STYLES OF MUSIC CAN YOU WRITE?
I write music in almost any musical style that has artistic value: classical, ambient, film, jazz, blues, rockabilly, rock and more..

DO YOU PROVIDE PRODUCTION MUSIC?
I do not provide so-called "production music" and I always retain the copyright of my compositions. This is also an advantage for the client: it means that as a composer
I take responsibility for what I do by putting my name, my face, my signature and my reputation on it.


WOULD YOU WRITE MUSIC FOR MONEY?
Money is not sufficient. I am selective and will work for quality projects I believe in. Also because I'm busy: my daily routine is in the studio producing singles and albums for various Nautilus Studio projects.


I NEED ORIGINAL GOOD MUSIC QUICKLY, MAY I LICENCE YOUR PUBLISHED MUSIC?
Yes. If you are in a deadline and urgently need quality original music, I have a large database of compositions (both songs and instrumental pieces) ready to be produced and included in your film.
Ready to use material: some already produced compositions, I distribute through the Californian Songtradr Inc, it is possible with a single click to request information regarding the purchase of the synchronization license.
