A B O U T

ZENO BALDI is an Italian composer and sound artist.
His work has been presented in numerous international Festivals – Mata (New York, US), London Ear Festival (UK), Unerhörte Musik (Berlin), ArteScienza (Rom), TransArt (Bolzano), Open Music (Graz), Loop (Brussels), (…) in venues from the Miller Theatre (New York) to Piccolo Teatro (Milan), from 104Centquatre (Paris) to Musiikkitalo (Helsinki).
As a performer, he’s developing a solo electroacoustic project (2017- ongoing), exploring different set ups for each performance, including piezo-electric microphones, analogue pedals and synthesizers, midi-controlled solenoids, tactile transducers and “tuned” feedbacks on membranes or cymbals. In 2023 he performed electronics in two semi-improvised projects, with Duo Dubois (saxophone & percussions) and with Ljuba Bergamelli (voice) / Jacopo Cenni (electronics).
His scores are published by Ricordi.
