𝗔𝗴𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘂𝘇𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗼 is an Italian composer and musician based in Berlin. With a background in violin and Renaissance lute, she has charted her musical path by drawing on historical and contemporary technologies. Menguzzato’s work merges past and current techniques to explore the sonic prospects of the present, often employing the auditory potential of the lute. Her debut solo EP Scusa, released on the Berlin imprint Verlag, has been narrated as “an ode to gentleness.” Menguzzato’s musical expression is rooted in the vivid imagery of her childhood and the quiet confrontation with nature, from which she believes all human sentiments flow. Growing up amidst the Trentino Alps and the Apennines of Emilia-Romagna, she is driven towards the construction of emotive soundscapes oscillating between the tangible and the ethereal. Her live performances have steadily gained momentum, taking her across Europe to venues and festivals such as silent green Kulturquartier and Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxembourg Platz in Berlin, Norberg Festival, for Turin’s Cripta747 and Palazzo Trevisan degli Ulivi in Venice. Agnese is founder of the Spydergum ensemble and has collaborated with a wide range of artists, including Sara Persico, Paula Ďurinová and Soho Rezanejad.

Musho moves seamlessly between abstract exploration and the immediacy of song, with the visceral effect of sinking into a tender and powerful embrace. In this duo, Sofia Jernberg and Alexander Hawkins draw on their shared affinity for the music of Ethiopia, having both honed their languages in the company of musical elder statesmen from that country: Jernberg with Hailu Mergia, and Hawkins with Mulatu Astatke. Sofia and Alexander first performed together at Amsterdam's Bimhuis in October 2016, under the name Musho - an Amharic word meaning 'Sad Song'. Jernberg's work frequently takes her to the outer edges of vocal technique, including performances in contexts ranging from Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire to Mats Gustafsson's The End. Hawkins has been described as 'unlike anything else in modern creative music', and alongside his profile as a bandleader and composer, is a frequent collaborator in duo with Tomeka Reid, Nicole Mitchell and Angelika Niescier. Musho released its debut album in April 2024 on Intakt, where they have expanded their traditional song repertoire to include Ethiopian, Armenian, Swedish and English.
