Timoteo Alicino
Chief Engineer at MMH studio - Creative Consultant
About me
With almost 4 decades of experience in event management on 3 continents, Timoteo Alicino is an invaluable source of knowledge, reliability and insight.
He has made it his goal to ensure that the productions (albums and live events) that saw his involvement not only happened but were a great success. He not only understands the complexity of putting together a production but he also fully grasps other important concepts: from budget constraints to working with volunteers. Even though he is used to working with world-class artists and equipment, he functions exceptionally well within other contexts.
Born and raised in Italy, Timoteo started off an illustrious career as a producer and musical director with the production ‘Breath of Heaven’, which toured through his home country in 1994. Prior to that, he worked as a vocalist in national and international concerts, including the ‘March for Jesus’ event in Italy and the International Christian Arts Seminar in De Bron, Netherlands. His work also included sound engineering on major rallies for international speakers since 1988.
In 1995, he joined All Good Gifts International, a South African production house. He was soon appointed as Director of Operations, worked as tour manager and technical director for all their appointments and tours, and engineered all live music events up until July 2004.
He devised a course on Sound Engineering called ‘The Sound Kitchen’, and has presented this at various seminars and conferences since 1995. Ten years later, it was recorded as an instructional DVD. Since 2005 he has been engineering for live broadcasts on TV, mixing for an audience of millions of people across the continent of Africa and beyond.
His work as a tour manager, sound engineer & teacher took him to a wealth of countries, including Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom, Italy, the United States of America, Israel, Ukraine and many European nations. He engineered, produced, mixed & mastered albums for various local- & international artists and speakers such as David Kramer, Albino Montisci (Italy), Rick Cua (USA), Patty Franklin (USA), Peter Helms (Canada), Wendy Oldfield, The Redial (Switzerland), Sara (Italy), Rediscovery (Italy/Holland), The Racabite Band (Holland), Piotr Pleka (Poland), Evan Schoombie (South Africa), The Billy Graham Assoc.
