Gadi Sassoon

Gadi Sassoon, is a Milan-based composer, experimental violinist,pioneering synthesist and accomplished multi-instrumentalist. His
latest work Fusion was created in collaboration with Reeps One and the Leipzig International Ballet, receiving enthusiastic public reception and widespread international accolades during its inaugural season at the Leipzig Opera House. Gadi Sassoon’s acclaimed studio albums Multiverse (ASIP, 2020) and Chaos & Order (ASIP, 2022), were created in collaboration with physicists and mathematicians, exploring the interplay between sound synthesis, live orchestras and algorithmically modelled “impossible instruments”. In 2024 he is premiering the new solo performance Augmented Violin, which blurs the line between neoclassical music, sculpture and sound art, and releasing new studio
recordings resulting from the performances and residences of the last two years.

Sassoon’s works have been showcased at venues and events around the world including Dolby Labs NYC, Sonár Festival Barcelona, Stanford University, Centre Pompidou in Paris, and TEDx. Sassoon’s work extends far beyond solo projects, with hundreds of pieces for TV, film and game soundtracks, collaborations with artists from across the music spectrum, sound art and synthesis research. Such works have been
released on labels such as ASIP, Island, Warner, Universal and Ninja Tune, and published on MIT’s Computer Music Journal and Technology Review
