Ruggero Mascellino

♋︎ Emotional flow ♋︎ Since I found my new home in the mountains, nature has been a great inspiration for my creative exploration. My music is transforming. The surrounding silence is allowing me to witness and listen, first. I let everything be. I observe. I channel.

Simple tree climbing routine 🌲✨ For the last years I’ve mainly been sharing here only parts of my musical journey. Nevertheless, my personal human journey unfolds in many different ways that all contribute to nourish my life. Exploring and moving in nature have been a consistent part of my exploration, where I could always reconnect with the simplest and most joyful essence of being alive ☘️ Stay wild, stay child 🪽🐒

↓ LIFE STORY ↓ MOVEMENT AS MEDICINE Around 11 years ago I got badly injured on my lower back while doing weightlifting. Back then, I was still competing in basketball which was my deepest passion (and still secretly is, whenever I find a ball and basket 🏀). The tremendous pain forced me to stop, aware that it was the end of my basketball career: I was not even able to sit and sleep properly, waking up in pain in the middle of the night. Doctors told me that I got hips dislocation and severe lumbar disc herniation, the second being a chronic condition. The frustrated mind of a fiery young men can play bad tricks, but in a seldom moment of lucidity I realised that this pain was carrying a message: ‘Time has come to change the way you move in this world, through this world, starting from your body’. Pain and suffering are far from being the same: pain is just there, but we can decide whether to suffer it or not, and this choice makes a whole difference in life. The sake for change, brings changes. I dived into yoga, which saved my back (and my mind), exploring further my movement in natural and wild environments and re-discovering the magic of dance. I felt like a flower, blossoming for the first time with bright shining colours charged of new life. Many years have passed since then. Despite the predictions of doctors, this paralysing pain is just a very far memory, a reminder for inner miracles. I just turned 30 and I never felt as healthy in my whole being as today. I am not a great mover, neither a great yogi, but I am curious and open-minded: it was enough to change my life. Today I celebrate the choice that this hurt boy took years ago, which brought me into the man I’m becoming today. Keep moving, miracles are everywhere ✨🍃

🌈🛸 We’re grateful to welcome back Ruggero Mascellino to PanParadise 2026! Ruggero brings a rich universe of flutes and movement, guiding you not only through sound, but through the way the body responds, breathes, and flows with music. During the last edition his playing carried us through a jorney within. Melodies feel like stories carried on the wind—sometimes playful and bright, sometimes deep and contemplative. In his movement sessions, he invites you to inhabit those stories with your whole body, exploring breath, and presence in a grounded, accessible way. At PanParadise, Ruggero will offer a space where flute, movement, and handpan can meet: listening, responding, and co-creating new landscapes together. We can’t wait to see him again and to descover what this new experince will bring 🌿 ✨ Meet Ruggero Mascellino live at PanParadise 2026 – 10–16 August, Schlangenbad, Germany. 🎟️ Be part of the magic: Early Bird tickets are available for a very limited time.

Move Mountains : A place beyond the gravity of this world. A whole environment through camera and sound; we surrendered to living and breathing the life all around us. Lila Collective is an invitation, radical and open. A living group of artists and facilitators rooted across the Mediterranean, offering spaces as a continuous research - personal and collective - into embodiment as a gateway to a new perception of the world and of ourselves. It’s about expanding the boundaries of physicality of what the body is and forging connections with the living world. A journey to the source of authenticity and creativity: embodying the spirit within us, transforming. The spaces of Lila Collective inspire hope in times of change. An opportunity to look into the essence and motivations of why we create collectively and alone and to remember that you can be lying on your back looking at the stars and feel happiness when life around you is shifting in every direction. So incredibly rare and so immeasurable are those people that ignite sparks in your heart and glows in the eyes, the kinds that shake up your soul and throw you back on your path. A place you didn’t think you were allowed or had forgotten entirely.. These are the bonds that propell you into the unknown with freedom to share light with everyone around you. These are the kinds of bonds that allow you to move mountains, and every mountain brings you closer to yourself.
