Life and career
Born in Melegnano, a self-taught musician, Camisasca debuted in 1974 with the progressive rock album La finestra dentro, produced by Pino Massara and Franco Battiato, which received large critical acclaim.[1] In the following years he collaborated as a vocalist and as a songwriter with Battiato and with other singers, and he took part in the musical project Telaio Magnetico.[1]
In 1979 Camisasca decided to enter a Benedictine monastery, still keeping active as a songwriter for artists such as Milva, Alice and Giuni Russo.[1][2] In 1987 he left the monastic life to embrace an eremitical life at the slopes of Mount Etna.[1] After participating in the Battiato's opera Genesi as a singer and as the narrating voice, he reprised his record activity in 1988 with the album Te Deum.[1]
Camisasca is also active as an icon painter, an activity he gradually focused on in later years.[1]
