Now based in Brooklyn, Liberatore spent much of his life in the medieval region of Abruzzo, Italy, amidst dramatic landscapes that are reflected through a performance and composition style of “unsettling beauty” and “striking physicality” (The New York City Jazz Record).

Liberatore is known for his nuanced and precise treatment of timbre, texture, rhythm, and gesture—whether through the elegant immediacy of unadorned instrumentation or the affecting dislocation of electronics and preparations.

Since 2018, he has released several records that dance between contemporary classical, electronic, noise, and free improvised music, including Solos (2018, Innova Recordings), Neutral Love (Duo with Amirtha Kidambi, 2021, Astral Editions), Death In The Gilded Age (Quartet with Ava Mendoza, gabby fluke-mogul, and Joanna Mattrey, 2021, Tripticks Tapes), and Lacquer (2022, Tripticks Tapes).

He has collaborated with a wide variety of artists and musicians, including Mark Kelley, Brian Chase, Elliott Sharp, and Gold Dime, and played hundreds of shows, from DIY venues and museums to festivals and landmark stages such as The Stone and King’s Theatre.

His work has been reviewed and featured in Entertainment Weekly, All About Jazz, Paste Magazine, WNYC, The Quietus, Free Jazz Blog, and many more. His first solo guitar album Solos was included in Ted Gioia’s 100 best albums of 2018.

During his formative years, Liberatore studied classical guitar under Maestro Marco Salcito at Conservatorio di Foggia, philosophy at the University of L’Aquila, and obtained his M.M. in Jazz Performance at NYU.

In 2023, Liberatore started the project Molto Ohm, a sonic and visual exploration of contemporary society and its malaise. Since then, Molto Ohm has released two albums (FEED and Reality Pills), performed live, received grants and commissions from organizations such as Foundation For Contemporary Arts, Composers Now and Metropolis Ensemble, and collaborated with artists including Ka Baird, Taja Cheek (L’Rain), Lester St. Louis (HxH), more eaze, Alyse Lamb (Parlor Walls), and Brian Wenner.
