is it just me or is the technical term he mentions heterophony?

Yes, it is the principle of heterophony. If you are interested, Ivan Fedele also makes abundant use of it.

Anyway, the piece is very beautiful and valid

Yes, it is all very beautiful.

Rocco De Cia was a very recent discovery of mine and, in reality, it was my son who pointed him out to me because as luck would have it, I am his music teacher.

Gerardo reminds us of Ivan Fedele and, as you will have read from his curriculum, De Cia actually perfected his composition studies with him.

He is a composer from Bologna and the city has already honored him greatly, but his name is now known internationally and I am sure we will hear more and more about him.

I am very happy for you, Rocco is a deeply prepared musician and our country would need more people like him. It will certainly bring him enrichment.
