Welcome to the beginning of Francesca Gucciones journey to unexplored planets woven out of sound. Travel with her to distanced worlds imagined by synthetic matter.

About Francesca

Francesca Guccione is an Italian composer and violinist.

Fascinated from the very beginning by the relation between sound and image, she combined her violin studies with those in composition and film scoring, earning a Master’s Degree in this discipline with the highest grades.

Her love for travelling and her need to always discover and learn about new realities lead her to perform in many cities around the world, including New York, Toronto, Dublin and Alexandria of Egypt.

In 2021 she released for the French label Whales Records her first album of neoclassical music, “Muqataea”, featuring cellist and composer Giovanni Sollima as the project’s artistic director; afterwards, several international artists, including Robot Koch, Julien Marchal, Hélène Vogelsinger, and Throwing Snow will make and release reworks of some of the tracks on this album. Also for Whales Records in 2022 she released the single “Shodō” and the EP “Utopia Aerial View” produced in collaboration with Moog Music. In addition to Whales Records, she also collaborates with other record labels, including the Canadian label Little Symphony Records, the French label InFiné Music, and the German label 7K! Records with which she released the single “Mare Tranquillitatis” included in the collection “String Layers Vol. II”.

On invitation from Moog Music she performed at Superbooth 22 in Berlin where she presented an original composition for violin and synths.

Her creativity is poetic and suspended between reality and imagination; a gateway to hidden worlds.

CREATIVE PROCESS

“I’ve always thought the celestial vault was really fascinating. I spent most of my childhood imagining distant worlds, constellations and counting stars. I think it was a really good training for my imagination. That is why I returned to travel with my mind to those distant worlds when the stunning images from the James Webb Telescope began to circulate on social media a few months ago. I let these suggestions flow through the synthesizers in a very natural way.

It was great to discover unexplored sound planets through my Moog synthesizers Matriarch, Grandmother and Subharmonicon along with the Moogerfooger Effects Plug-ins.

This is only Vol. I, the journey continues.”
