He has been a key protagonist on the international scene for having the most innovative music, since he is highly recognized for having compositions that fuse experimental electronic music with traditional classical music. He is internationally known for his songs such as Oceano, Wild Side, The Future, Endless Time, Lux Libera Nos and Atlantico, ordered by popularity from left to right. Cacciapaglia, from the 70s to the present, has been investigating the powers of sound, which has led him to lead towards music beyond borders expressed through deep emotional contact. He's also had a lot of success with his live shows in Italy and such; A clear testimony was his tour of China, with concerts in Beijing and Shanghai. Other testimonies include his previous concerts in Russia, the United States, Spain, Slovakia, and Türkiye. Another of his greatest merits has been that he obtained first place, in his most recent album called Diapson, in the iTunes Classic Italy.

Biography[edit]
He graduated in musical composition from the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan. He also studied conducting and electronic music. In his early years, he worked in the study of Rai Phonology, and has worked with the CNR (National Research Council) of Pisa where he studied computational applications regarding the area of music..[1]
He began working as a session musician and joined Franco Battiato's group. He was the first Sicilian singer-songwriter on the album. In 1974, he released his first album Sonanze, published by Rolf Ulrich Kaiser, office director of the German label, Alto Representante.
Consonancias was an ambitious work for those years, since it was based on the orchestra, choir and electronic music, and also used a language that was close to German cosmic music. With this work, he comes into contact with other groups active in the field of German experimental music such as: Popol Vuh, Tangerine Dream, Wallestein, Darks Dieter.[1]
For a long time, he dealt with spiritual music and sacred dance as the most important powers of sound research. The music is, in fact, inspired by these experiences and is not based on rules, but on all states of human emotion. In his works he often uses sacred texts taken from Ecclesiastes, the Bible, the Vedas and the Upanishads, being able to compose a work that is far removed from everything material..[1]
In the albums, Encuentros con el Alma (2005) and Cuarta Vez (2007), Roberto Cacciapaglia managed to create a new musical genre that is composed between classical and electronic music. In 2010, his album Ten Directions was the first published by Vistazo, owned by Cacciapaglia himself, and distributed in Italy by Sony Music. His songs are performed by the Royal London Philharmonic Orchestra.[1]
