After moving to London in 2015 he began collaborating with the orchestrator Geoff Lawson, who has worked on films such Star Wars: Solo, Thor: Ragnarok, Black Panther and recent albums from Voces 8, Katherine Jenkins and Gareth Malone, deepening his understanding of orchestration in the Neo-classical genre.

His track ‘Tutto E’ Bellissimo’ debuted on Classic FM in December 2017, reaching number 1 on the iTunes Classical Chart in the U.K. and Spain and in 2020 making him enter the Classic FM Hall of Fame as youngest composer ever in the chart[5][6][7].
