Sandro Mussida’s work investigates the relationships between tradition and innovation in music, active listening, the identity of musical languages, and rites. His latest research involves historical, non-equal-tempered tuning systems questioning perception by the Western, standardized ear. On the intersection between acoustical/classical, electric, and electronic fields, he writes for orchestra, chamber and solo instruments, and electronics. He performs his music internationally, as a cellist, conductor, and electronic performer.

Since 2014, together with visual artist Rebecca Salvadori and soprano Olivia Salvadori, he has curated and produced cross-discipline events with the Tutto Questo Sentire (TQS) Collective. His music is published by Sony Classical, Boomkat, Tapeworm, Blume Editions, Metrica, Soave Records, Curl Recordings, and Die Schachtel.
