Alessandro Solbiati is an Italian contemporary classical composer and educator known for his intricate, emotionally charged works that blend traditional craftsmanship with modern experimentation. Born in 1956, he studied under Franco Donatoni and has become a respected figure in Europe’s new music scene, with pieces ranging from solo instrumental works to large-scale orchestral compositions. His music often explores lyrical intensity and structural precision, drawing inspiration from literature, visual art, and philosophical concepts. A longtime professor at Milan’s Conservatorio Giuseppe Verdi, Solbiati has mentored a generation of composers while maintaining an active creative output—evident in releases like *Six Fois Onze* and *Sinfonia seconda*, which showcase his flair for dramatic contrasts and shimmering textures. Whether writing for piano, chamber ensembles, or full orchestra, his work feels both intellectually rigorous and viscerally engaging, inviting listeners to lean into its unfolding stories.
