About

Corrado Cerutti

Today (tomorrow I don't know), I'm a composer, improviser, guitarist and artist-researcher. Searching for my artistic identity is a constant part of my journey as a person and artist.

For many years I studied jazz guitar and grew up inside that community. But over time I understood that what keeps me in music isn't the style. It's the contact: feeling together and creating together as communities.

So today I move across many disciplines that carry this sense like a flag: improvisation, movement, sound.

My research grows from the interest for community, sharing and co-creation within the society I live in.

what is my sense of making music today ;
how does my work meet different communities ;
what are my responsibilities toward society.

To answer them, I work on interdisciplinary projects that weave together different arts and realities, in constant dialogue with ensembles and musical projects, improvised and not.

I see music as space art. A fundamental point for me is: how can I compose this space, made of people, emotions, fears and humanity?
