MICHELE MARCO ROSSI /// [cellist]  has established himself as one of the leading interpreters of contemporary music. He works closely with prominent composers and has significantly expanded the cello repertoire, ranging from instrumental music to avant-garde theater, electronic music, and video installations. He has premiered works by Georges Aperghis, Ivan Fedele, Bernhard Gander, Fabio Vacchi, Alessandro Solbiati, Lucia Ronchetti, Noriko Baba, Filippo Perocco, Matteo Franceschini, Vittorio Montalti, Federico Gardella, Zeno Baldi, and Pasquale Corrado, among many others. He performed the world premiere of Salvatore Sciarrino’s Linee d’aria for cello and orchestra, composed for him, and Ivan Fedele dedicated his 3rd Cello Concerto to Rossi. He has also collaborated with Enno Poppe, Helmut Lachenmann, Unsuk Chin, Klaus Huber, and Ennio Morricone. Rossi brings his solo recitals to all major concert seasons in Italy and premiered Luis de Pablo’s 2nd Cello Concerto with the Orchestra del Comunale di Bologna conducted by Oksana Lyniv, Goffredo Petrassi’s Adagio e Minuetto variato with the Orchestra di Padova e del Veneto conducted by Marco Angius, and Sofia Gubaidulina’s Seven Words conducted by Kent Nagano with the Haydn Orchestra of Bolzano and Trento. He also develops cross-disciplinary projects, collaborating with Andrea Camilleri, Valerio Magrelli, Nicola Piovani, and leading Italian and international ensembles. He regularly participates in musical and educational programs on Rai Radio3, and in 2022 he received the Abbiati Award for Recording from the Italian National Association of Music Critics for his complete recording of Ivan Fedele’s cello music (Kairos). Since 2023, he has collaborated with Archi Magazine, curating a series of conversations with leading contemporary composers and pursuing a cross-disciplinary project to promote contemporary music to diverse audiences, from traditional concert seasons and experimental festivals to young listeners in schools and radio audiences.

/// FIELD is based on the idea that sounds can emerge from the electromagnetic fields that are omnipresent in our environment. This performance reveals these invisible forces, essential and imperceptible to the eye and ear, which orchestrate our gestures and movements. Residual electrical signals are picked up by electromagnetic transducer microphones. Recorded beforehand, they then become Martin Messier’s raw materials. On stage, the artist interacts with two aluminum panels, linked by a network of cables that he continually connects and disconnects, generating a choreography of sound and light. From these repeated gestures, a hypnotic composition emerges. Evolving in an infinite loop, each iteration, though familiar, is different. The visual power of the work, evoked by electrical conduction and lightning-like flashes of light, plunges viewers into a state of fascination. This revelation of electromagnetic forces brings us closer to their mystery, making the inaccessible tangible. With surgical synchronization of light and sound, and shadow effects that animate a constantly changing landscape, Field is a landmark project in Martin Messier’s artistic research.
Martin Messier ///  orchestrates a dialogue between sound, light and movement. His award-winning performances and installations (Prix Ars Electronica, Japan Media Arts Awards…) combine technologies with natural elements – water, smoke, waves, electricity – and explore the manifestation of physical phenomena. His works take the form of astonishing machines, structures that appear minimalist or immaterial. These devices are presented at major international institutions such as Festival TransAmériques, Trafó Budapest, Mutek, Transmediale, Sonar and Nemo.
