He studied piano and composition with Valentino Di Bella and Edgar Alandia Canipa, acoustics and electronic music with Giorgio Nottoli and phonetics along with musical theory at the University of Rome, Tor Vergata. He continued his studies, deeping his knowledge of the ancient forms of Byzantine music and the 15th century technique of Vocal Counterpoint. He attended Master Classes with Tristan Murail, Brice Pauset (2005) and Helmut Lachenmann (2006). His musical growing up is largely self taught and influenced by several extra-academic experiences, as the meetings with the German composer Hans Werner Henze, who always espressed enthusiastics opinions about Santi Gubini’s works. In 2010, Santi Gubini completed an extensive ensemble composition (Als Oben) for woodwind, percussions and voices which had been commissioned by the Vatican Board of Umnio Apostolatus Catholici. On March 25th, 2012 the Orchestra sinfonica Roma (Sinfonietta), conducted by Patrizio Esposito, performed the world premier of ‘Als Oben’, at the Auditorium, Parco della Musica, Sala Sinopoliin Rome. His solo piano piece 'Mit anderen Augen' was premiered at the Charim Galerie in Vienna on November 2011. The work was commissioned by the Austrian artist and filmmaker Edgar Honetschläger. The work was greatly appreciated and will be presented at the Darmstädter Ferienkurse (July 2012). He has regularly collaborated with the acclaimed pianist Maria Flavia Cerrato who, for the first time in Italy in December 2009, performed one of Santi Gubini’s most significant compositions for piano,(Objet des Mots). The work was premiered at the theatre, Furio Camillo in Rome. His electronic piece ‘Prefigurazione ad-stanziarsi was premiered at the theatre’, ‘Massimo in Palermo’ (2003). Simone Santi Gubini’s music is characterized by two distinct qualities: the absence of all traditional and historical musical techniques and theories, which can be clearly perceived both in live performance as well as by analyzing the musical score itself. Secondly, the artist’s creative expression is directly relevant to the musical material at hand. As an arduous researcher, Santi Gubini has developed an innovative system for composition that regulates both intervals and rhythms. The system in known as ‘Composizione a Parti Uguali’ (2011) and is soon to be published. The musical works of Simone Santi Gubini are published in the editions of La CAMERA VERDE, Rome. At present he is working to the realization of a big Opera: SOS (Sounds of Sirens) in collaboration with Edgar Honetschläger. This Opera is inspired to the terrible Fukushima tragedy.
