Ha tenuto sempre con buoni risultati alcuni stage di "Psicologia del Ritmo" da lui ideati nell’esposizione della ricerca didattico-musicale sull’interpretazione della suddivisione ritmica. Inserisce i concetti degli stage fin dal principio nei suoi corsi indipendenti tenuti fin dal 1986, nel quale utilizza fra i vari metodi anche il"METODO COMPLETO PER BATTERIA"di cui e' autore.

Lo spettacolo ha una durata di circa 80 minuti ed .. proposto al pubblico sempre con grande successo fin dal 1987 in teatri, piazze, chiese, istituti didattici, spettacoli teatrali, etc. (vedi alcuni Video, alcune Recensioni, alcune Foto nel sito).Questo primo CD solista di Aiello e' stato recensito molto positivamente da varie riviste specializzate in vari paesi del mondo, tra cui nel 2004 dall'autorevole rivista internazionale di batteria, numero 1 nel mondo,"MODERN DRUMMER", (n° di Aprile 2004)e nel 2007 dallaPAS-Percussive Arts Society, (n° di Febbraio '07),dal 1961 la pi.. grande organizzazione di percussione del mondo ed .. considerata la fonte centrale per informazione e networking per i percussionisti ed i batteristi di tutte le discipline musicali (vedi nel sito anche Recensioni, Interviste, Critiche, ecc. del CD in Italia e nel mondo); inoltre viene introdotto nelle programmazioni di varie TV e Radio, anche importanti, in vari paesi del mondo (vedi anche Radio e TV in Italia e nel mondo per il CD).E dal 2004 aggiunge allo suo spettacolo solista TRIBUTE TO BEETHOVEN anche i brani della Quinta Sinfonia dal suo CD-DEMO solista (del 2004), "TRIBUTE TO BEETHOVEN 2 - Drum Improvisation On The Symphony no. 5", che, come dice il titolo “Drum Improvisation On The Symphony no.5”, a differenza del primo CD “Drum In The Symphony no.9”, offre un’interpretazione quasi totalmente basata sull’improvvisazione “sopra” la Quinta, invece che su di una vera e propria partitura di batteria con poca improvvisazione e scritta per risultare “dentro” alla Nona Sinfonia (ascolta alcuni mp3 dei CD nel sito).Da agosto 2005 M.
