The third festival directed by Lucia Ronchetti is a focus on recorded and amplified music, linked to a sonic world widespread everywhere, often obsessive, which makes it difficult to distinguish masterpieces from pure and simple hits. Concerts, performances and site-specific events occupy the emblematic spaces of the Biennale, from the Ca’ Giustinian venue to the Arsenale, passing through the places of new contemporary music and the oldest musical history of the city. The program is dedicated to digital sound and presents a wide spectrum of stylistic trends and innovative creative research from the international music scene, according to installation, performance and online forms, with many world premieres commissioned by the Venice Biennale and co-productions with the most important international festivals. The contribution of Biennale College Musica is then fundamental, bringing to the Festival the concrete results of its most visionary experimentation, designing the future of Italian and international contemporary music: as many as ten new productions of the College Musica complete the Festival program, in an autonomous section entitled Digital Sound Horizons which explores the present and future boundaries of the interaction between science, technology and musical creativity. Biennale College Musica 2023 involved ten musicians, composers, performers, sound artists and programmers from all over the world.
