In conjunction with Maximilian Brooks, Lusvardi founded the award winning contemporary jazz ensemble Gatto Marte in 1994. After winning the national competition at the European Love Festival Arezzo Wave in July 2000, the group produced their most recent album entitled "Leolombrico" , the fourth of their fruitful collaborations. Lusvardi can also be heard on Gatto Marte's Danae and Gioco del Magoand pieroino and has recorded a compilation of solo performances entitled Progetto Contrabasso. Presently, Lusvardi can be heard throughout the San Francisco and Monterey Bay areas playing music for solo bass from his repertoire and with symphonies, including The Monterey Symphony, Santa Cruz Symphony, Bay Shore Opera and Monterey Emsemble.
