Ingrid Carbone is a guest on RAI Radio 1 for the broadcast Isoradio – Crossover. You can listen to the full interview (in italian) here>>

Here’s a translated excerpt.

At this point, I’m connected, about music and another invaluable artist, a musician, concert pianist, and university professor of mathematics. Because yes, mathematics has a lot to do with music. Ingrid Carbone, good evening and welcome to Crossover – music at 360 degrees. How are you? What kind of music are you listening to these days?

Intense, spiritual music, I’d even say very timely. I was listening to what you were talking about earlier, the beauty of Switzerland, the beauty of our lands.
For some time now, I’ve been studying classical and romantic composers like Schubert and Liszt, but also Italian composers like Ruggero Leoncavallo.

You’ve received numerous important awards: the International Classical Music Award, the Global Music Award in the United States, the Scarlatti Prize, a special mention from the New York Ibla Foundation… But I’d like to focus on your latest project. Last December 4th, you performed Conversation Concert in Siena, a format you created and presented in Europe, China, the Americas, Latin America, and the Middle East. What is it?

It’s my way of presenting music and making it accessible to everyone. It stems from the desire to overcome the cliché that classical music is reserved for a select few.
I address everyone: not just musicians or specialists. I share my journey, my vision, my way of feeling and perceiving music. I don’t repeat information found everywhere, but I share an experience.
On December 4th, for example, I created a conversation concert about mathematics, since I’m also a mathematician.
