"I first met Stefano Scodanibbio in 1986 and what first impressed me about him and his music was that he seemed a determined young man, equally proficient on the double bass or as composer, a rare breed in the world of music of those days. His style was a very individual one, not following traditional avant-garde trends but exploring his own very special world of string harmonics.

As a composer, Stefano was an individual voice in our new music world. He was a friend and fellow musician, who is sorely missed by us and all that knew him."
