Flint Juventino Beppe and music
— an inseparable entity
Composing and creative art is a lifestyle for Flint Juventino Beppe (b.1973). As long as he can remember, music has occupied his mind.
As per 2018, Beppe's catalogue of works comprises about 200 titles, more than 80 opuses, including commissions and works for piano, flute, clarinet, violin, viola, cello, double bass, string orchestra and orchestral works like flute concertos, piano concertos and symphonic poems. Beppe also writes ballet music, electroacoustic music, film soundtracks, songs and lyrics.
He has contributed as composer on several albums. Flute Mystery and Remote Galaxy (2L) were Grammy-nominated in 2010 and 2015, and feature conductor Vladimir Ashkenazy, Emily Beynon, Mark van de Wiel, Ralph Rousseau and Philharmonia Orchestra.
Other artists he has worked with include Sir James Galway, Rune Bergmann, Andreas Blau, Die 14 Berliner Flötisten, Leonard Slatkin and National Symphony Orchestra.
The Symbiophony Film Concept, invented by Beppe, uses music or sounds as the foundation for any artistic expression that can be added to create an artistic symbiosis. This includes the films Montagna con Forza and Vicino alla Montagna.
Memberships: Deutscher Komponistenverband, GEMA and GVL.

— I call the art I make "fingerprints", because they do represent my musical or artistic version of the impressions I have inhaled. I see these fingerprints as my lifesavers because they help me articulate what I experience, and they relieve some of my inner pressure. These musical fingerprints are also based on my underlying wish for universal and personal freedom for every living creature on this earth.

The award-winning documentary Exhaling Music tells of Beppe's intense and life-threatening breach with religion when he was 17. His childhood religion could never follow him into adulthood. Having no political preferences, all his arts is permeated by a sense of individual freedom. Just like the freedom and respect Nature upholds. Hence, Beppe is constantly dreaming of a world without religion and state suppression.
