Sascia Pellegrini – A Cross Media Journey
Dance/Music
Description
Description
Contemporary musician Sascia Pellegrini is no stranger to crossing frontier: bred in Italy and now based in Hong Kong, his music traverses the borders of media and genre. A classically trained percussionist, pianist and composer, with two consecutive scholarships from IRCAM (Institut de Recherche et Coordination Acoustique/Musique, France) under his belt, Sascia sculpts contemporary soundscapes with digitally-processed backtracks, live electronics and videos in combination with his technically-flawless and physically intense percussion playing.
He has earned the reputation of the percussion wizard not only by his immaculate mastery of traditional percussion instruments but also his uncanny ability to turn most unconventional materials into his music paraphernalia.
Having performed in Italy, France, German, Japan and China, Sascia invites his worldwide audience to experience his unpretentious and innovative land of music. In his new-found home Hong Kong, he collaborates with all walks of musicians, artists and establishments such as Hong Kong University, Chinese University and Hong Kong New Music Ensemble.
His composition and performance in recent events such as MOBILE M+ and Sonic Anchor #11 have gained him growing critical acclaims and recognition.
