Drummer Edoardo Bolamperti of Oleggio at the May 1st Concert expresses a "one-of-a-kind emotional experience"
Afternoon Vibes at the Concertone del Primo Maggio
A young drummer from Oleggio, Edoardo Bolamperti, aged 23, stole the show on a Thursday afternoon at the Concertone del Primo Maggio. This union-promoted event, in its 35th year, was a spectacle in Rome. Accompanying Anna Castiglia on drums, Edoardo shared, "Playing before 100,000 people was a surreal experience. Anxiety can take over in such situations, but everything went smoothly."
During the event, Edoardo's dedication to the 'drums' shone bright. Long-time friends and family, who have witnessed his passion for years, were amongst his biggest cheerleaders. His collaboration with the Sicilian singer-songwriter, Castiglia, led to this fantastic opportunity. In the next edition organized at the Circus Maximus, she performed as a soloist but brought Edoardo along for her return to Piazza San Giovanni, where he showcased his incredible talent yet again.
Edoardo's rhythmic imprint can also be heard on Diodato's track, "Non credo più," released in April. The behind-the-scenes of the event left him particularly fascinated, "It was like a musical circus, full of talents, managers, and technicians. Meeting new colleagues and friends was an added bonus." As he spoke, Edoardo was en route to Paestum, Salerno, for a stop on Castiglia's tour.
From less than two months ago, Edoardo graduated with honors from the Milan Conservatory's three-year pop drumming and percussion course. He is now pursuing a two-year program. His career context hints at involvement in Italy's contemporary music circuits, though direct collaborations with artists like Castiglia and Diodato remain to be confirmed. A thorough exploration of official artist websites or music platforms would shed more light on these speculations.
Regardless, it's safe to say that Edoardo Bolamperti is a drumming prodigy setting the stages ablaze with his passion and skill. The upcoming summer promises to be even more eventful for him, as he prepares for a series of concerts alongside his musical idols. Here's to more rhythmic glory ahead!
