In 2008 he also was awarded two first prizes in Swiss national choral composition competitions: SKJF-09 and Label Suisse. He presented a series of his compositions at the 8th World Symposium on Choral Music with the Calicantus Choir in July, 2008 in Copenhagen, and obtained extraordinary public and critical success. He immediately became composer-in-residenceof this splendid, world-class children's choir. Ivo Antognini has released three Jazz albums with his original works: The Dark Cloud (1993), Inspiration (1998), and Feggàri mou (2005).Īn informal, but very important, meeting with the Coro Calicantus and its director, Mario Fontana, led him to discover the field of choral music in 2006. From 1989 to the present day he has composed a multitude of music for television and film.
Composition has been of great interest to him since childhood, so he is all the while dedicated to the activity as a self-taught composer. His diploma in piano is followed by studies at the Swiss Jazz School in Berne with pianist Joe Haider.
