Alessandro Bosetti

Born in Milano, 1973.

With Jazz as my background, I have been playing soprano saxophone in several ensembles of improvised and experimental music as well as composing and leading my own interdisciplinary projects in acoustic art. I have worked on the musicality of spoken words and unusual aspects of spoken communication and produced text-sound compositions featured in live performances, radio broadcastings and recordigs for labels of experimental music. In my work I move on the line between sound antropology and composition. Field research and interviews often build the basis for my abstract compositions. As a saxophonist I�ve developped an instrumetal language that incorporate extended techniques, noises, and a strong influence from electronic music. Present time activities include a text sound composition based on afasics and handicaped voices, and an acoustic art project featuring the whistling language from Gomera island.
