Agnese Menguzzato is an Italian composer and musician based in Berlin.


With a background in violin and Renaissance lute, she leans into historical and contemporary technologies, carrying them into one entity. Through this interaction, her music becomes an aria dedicated to the atemporality of sound and human gestures.
Her debut solo EP
Scusa, released by the Berlin imprint Verlag
, has been described as “an ode to gentleness.”


Menguzzato’s language comes from the crystallized imagery of her childhood and her quiet gaze towards the rural and the celestial.
Growing up amidst the Italian Alps and Apennines, she makes music that feels like a tactile reverie—at once skin-close and vast.


Her live performances have been presented in venues and festivals such as silent green Kulturquartier, Volksbühne am Rosa Luxembourg Platz, Norberg festival, Cripta747 and Biennale Musica 2025, La Stella Dentro in Venice.


Agnese Menguzzato has collaborated with artists like William Basinski, Sara Persico, Paula Ďurinová and Soho Rezanejad.
She is a founder of the Spydergum ensemble and part of the period music collective, which body of work is released via Other People.
This year she’ll be featured on another collaborative project with the label Unguarded.
