Claudio Simonetti's talk was held yesterday from 18:30 to 20:00 at the Hospital de Santiago. It was finally agreed that some people from the Organization would be asking him questions rather than have Simonetti give a long talk. These people were Germán Barón and José María Benítez. Luis Rodríguez helped with the translations for our international guests. Apart from Simonetti, Gabrielle Lucantonio, the author of the book devoted to Simonetti and which has been recently published in Spain by Saimel, was also invited to the talk.

Simonetti's talk lasted around 90 minutes, but we wished we would have had more time, considering Claudio's impressive professional career. During his talk Claudio reviewed his most important works such as Profondo Rosso, Suspiria or Zombie. He also gave us some juicy anecdotes as well as personal reflections on the current situation of film music in general and, very especially, horror film music.
