Paolo Angeli

Paolo Angeli is a visionary Sardinian musician who turns traditional instruments into futuristic sound machines. Best known for his electrified *guitarra sarda* – a modified Sardinian guitar with extra strings, hammers, and pickups – he creates hypnotic tapestries of Mediterranean folk, avant-garde jazz, and prepared guitar experimentation. This Italian multi-instrumentalist has spent decades bridging his island's folk traditions with global improvisation circles, collaborating with icons like Fred Frith and Hamid Drake along the way.

Recent releases like *SCIUMARA* and *Níjar* showcase his signature alchemy of plucked rhythms, drone orchestrations, and sudden bursts of melody that feel both ancient and sci-fi. Whether reimagining flamenco in *Bodas De Sangre* or crafting aquatic soundscapes in *Rade*, Angeli's music feels like a dialogue between Sardinian shepherds and experimental composers. He remains a one-of-a-kind sonic inventor, making concert halls buzz with the spirit of Mediterranean crossroads.
