About

Alessandro Casolino is an italian composer and performer, who graduated in Electronic Music with Davide Gagliardi at the “G. Verdi” Conservatory in Milan. He is currently continuing his studies in Applied Music and Music Composition with Massimo Marchi, Andrea Vigani and Paolo Rimoldi.

Active artistically in Milan, he is member of the computer music collective Sistema Ensemble and of the Chigiana Live Electronics Ensemble, with which he has performed as an electronic musician in some of the most musically vibrant contexts of the Milanese scene —such as MMT, Divertimento Ensemble, C3, and Agon— as well as at events connected to the Chigiana International Festival, where he has collaborated with Alvise Vidolin, Roberto Fabbriciani, Giancarlo Schiaffini, Tonino Battista, Jacopo Cenni, Alberto Cavallaro, and Manuel Teles.

In 2026, together with harpist Sofia Catella, he founded Spirali Duo, an ensemble for harp and live electronics dedicated to promoting the existing repertoire for this singular instrumentation and expanding it by commissioning new works.
