Elio Marchesini

Percussion

An eclectic musician, capable of expressing himself both in the rigor of classical music and in the more cryptic sound paths of the musical avant-garde and in the expressive freedom of performance and the multiple expressions of pop. This chameleon-like quality leads him to make the boundaries of these musical regions increasingly invisible.

Curiosity, which has always been a founding element of his artistic path, has led him to continuous investigations into the timbre and the various techniques of the countless instruments, which over time he has introduced into his instrumental park, engaged in continuous collaborations with composers and musicians of great fame with whom he has also made numerous recordings.

He is an artistic producer of musical realities with which he carries out intense concert activity throughout the world. He collaborates as a curator with important European art galleries.

Sound research and experimentation are the beacons of a path that sees him wandering also as a composer towards a personal poetics, well received by the public and critics: his works are performed in prestigious theaters, such as the Teatro alla Scala and the Auditorium in Milan. He composes soundtracks for cinema and theater.

He deals with training and management by leading a training program capable of highlighting work dynamics through the playful use of music.

He is a percussion teacher at the G. Puccini Conservatory in La Spezia.
