He has held over 3000 concerts around the world and has gathered fifty-four professional musicians from various parts of the world and has organized a European Orchestra of Peace, and describing the project, Santino mentioned:
"Europe needs width. We are against discrimination of any kind. It is necessary to respect every person, every culture and religion. In a democratic environment it is necessary for everyone to have their place in society.
With this orchestra I want to make a single European Roma music style that currently does not exist in Europe. Roma music is divided in regions and has its own style, for example as it is in the Balkans, in France or in Spain ".
